Hotel History

The European Hotel enjoys a 118 year heritage linked to the history of the City of Perth. 

Combining heritage architecture and four star modern conveniences with warm hospitality in Perth’s historic East End since 1911 - for almost fifty years as the Miss Maud Swedish Hotel and earlier as the Derward Hotel - the 52 room European Hotel embraces its reputation as one of Perth’s best known boutique hotels with a world-wide reputation for its welcoming hospitality.
