Building owners Hawaiian reaffirmed their long-term partnership with Hilton Hotels through a major refurbishment of the 1960s-era hotel in Perth’s CBD. Works included upgrades to the main restaurant, penthouse suites, and lobby amenities, maintaining the hotel’s status as a premier destination.
Samuels on Mill – Dining Reimagined
Formerly the Adelphi Grill, the restaurant was transformed into Samuels on Mill as part of the broader hotel upgrades. The project involved realigning and rebuilding the main bar within the existing restaurant footprint, complete with all-new services. Timber floors were refinished and stained, entry glazing was replaced, and external windows were enlarged to create stronger interaction with Mill Street. The kitchen was upgraded with new serveries and counters, while detailed banquet seating was constructed to suit the refreshed layout. Significant mechanical upgrades and acoustic ceilings were installed to resolve prior reverberation issues.
Penthouse Suite Refurbishment
Level 10 penthouse suites underwent a complete refurbishment to take full advantage of their views over Mounts Bay Road and the Swan River. Works included the full demolition of wall finishes, floor coverings, and existing bathrooms, followed by the installation of new electrical, mechanical, and hydraulic services. The project was delivered in close coordination with Hilton and Hawaiian to ensure premium finishes while meeting budget constraints. Bathrooms and powder rooms were fitted with large-format porcelain tiles and high-end international fixtures. Construction planning was carefully managed to minimise disruption to guests, allowing the hotel to remain fully operational.
Lobby Amenities Upgrade
While onsite for guest room upgrades, Hoskins was engaged to refurbish the ground floor lobby bathrooms in line with the hotel’s refreshed aesthetic. This included the complete demolition and reconstruction of male, female, and accessible amenities, all undertaken in a live hotel environment with no disruption to operations. Works were completed to a premium standard within a tight program, supported by skilled subcontractors capable of meeting the hotel’s high quality expectations.
Together, these works elevate Parmelia Hilton’s offering, blending luxury, functionality, and heritage charm into a revitalised hospitality experience.
