Crown Perth Pools: Choosing Your Summer Hotel by the Water
Perth summers mean warm days spent outdoors, and a afternoon by the water is often the anchor of a Burswood stay. Because each of the three hotels on the complex offers a distinct outdoor setting, picking where to stay often comes down to how you plan to spend your outdoor hours.

Navigating the Complex Pool Grounds
When planning a trip during the warmer months, knowing which pool belongs to which hotel helps you structure your day before you even unpack. Crown Perth consists of three separate hotel towers set along the Swan River foreshore in Burswood: the three hotels are Crown Towers, Crown Metropol, and Crown Promenade. Each property manages its own dedicated swimming area, meaning access depends directly on which resort building you book.
If you are spending the middle of the day swimming to escape the summer heat, understanding these boundaries prevents any mix-ups at check-in. While all three properties sit within the same estate, guests staying at one hotel do not automatically share access to the swimming grounds of another. Choosing your room category with your pool preferences in mind ensures your afternoons unfold right where you expect.
Crown Towers: Lagoon Swimming and Spa Access
Crown Towers Perth publishes expansive lagoon pools situated at the ground level of the resort tower. Set surrounded by landscaped gardens and outdoor lounges, this area is built for unhurried summer afternoons. Nearby, the Poolside Bar & Grill provides casual food and drinks without requiring you to venture back inside into the main lobby.
In addition to its central outdoor lagoon grounds, Crown Towers houses Crown Spa Perth. The spa features an indoor pool situated within its Aqua Retreat area. According to published venue details, access to this indoor pool, along with the Aqua Retreat sauna, steam room, and therapeutic rain shower, is complimentary for guests booking spa treatments lasting one hour or longer. Crown Spa operates Sunday through Thursday from 9:00am to 5:00pm, and Friday through Saturday from 9:00am to 6:00pm.
Crown Metropol: Main, Relaxation, and Family Waterslides
Crown Metropol features a multi-tiered outdoor layout designed to accommodate different age groups and swimming styles. The main outdoor pool forms the core of the layout, accompanied by a dedicated relaxation pool for quiet unhurried swimming.
For families visiting Burswood during the summer holidays, Metropol includes a dedicated family pool equipped with children's waterslides. Adjacent to the outdoor areas, Metropol also runs The Kids Hub, an indoor play area designed for children aged 12 and under. This mix makes Metropol a frequent choice for those travelling with children who want active outdoor water play balanced by nearby indoor air-conditioned spaces during peak sunshine hours.
Crown Promenade: Streamlined Outdoor Swimming
Crown Promenade offers a straightforward outdoor swimming pool situated alongside its fitness centre. The atmosphere at Promenade is calm and functional, ideal for guests who prefer a quick morning swim before exploring the river foreshore or an evening dip after returning from dinner across the estate.
While Promenade does not host expansive lagoon networks or multi-lane waterslides, its outdoor area delivers a quiet setting for daily swimming. Reviewing rooms at Promenade can also help you pair your stay with balcony options that overlook the surrounding resort grounds.
Structuring Hot Summer Days Around Pool Hours
During hot, dry summers in Western Australia, organizing your day around the climate keeps your trip comfortable. Many guests choose to walk along the Swan River foreshore early in the morning, taking advantage of cool breezes before the sunshine hits the open lawns.
By mid-morning, shifting indoors to restaurants, casual cafes, or indoor venue spaces offers relief from the outdoors. Returning to your hotel's swimming pool in the mid-to-late afternoon provides a refreshing transition before head out for a late-night show at Crown Theatre Perth or a relaxed dinner across the complex.
