Das Eigentum — Sixdegrees
Sixdegrees is a clean, no-fuss three-star in central Albany, with a small bar and lounge off the lobby that feels more like a local’s living room than a hotel. Walls are painted in muted coastal tones, and the staff greet you by name if you’ve been there an hour. It’s not aiming for boutique charm—it’s a functional base for travellers who want a decent bed, a cooked breakfast, and a 10-minute walk to the main strip. It suits couples and solo walkers who plan to spend their days out at the Torndirrup National Park or along the King George Sound rather than lounging in the room.
Chroniken von Albany
Albany was founded in 1826 as a military outpost and penal settlement, making it the oldest European settlement in Western Australia. The town grew around the deep natural harbour of Princess Royal Harbour, later serving as the main departure point for Anzac troops in 1914. The architecture tells that story: Victorian limestone buildings on York Street sit alongside 1960s concrete additions from the whaling boom. The closure of the Cheynes Beach Whaling Station in 1978 pushed the economy toward tourism and conservation. Today Albany leans into its rugged coastal identity—maritime museums, craft breweries, and the National Anzac Centre draw a mix of history buffs and nature hikers.

February and March are warm, often above 25°C, with low rainfall and calm seas for swimming and whale-watching. November also works—spring wildflowers peak and crowds haven’t arrived yet.
Peak / Festival Surge
January is peak summer: school holidays bump up prices, and the Great Southern Escape festival (mid-February) fills hotels fast. Expect hotel rates at two to three times the June average.
Budget Schulter Saison

Wetter & Verpackung
Winter (June) is cool and wet, with average highs near 15°C and rain on about half the days. Pack a waterproof jacket, thermal layers, and sturdy walking shoes—you’ll need them for the coastal trails.
Live City Briefing veröffentlicht — Albany
- Albany’s main York Street upgrade is nearly finished—new footpaths and a cycle lane from Grey Street to Stirling Terrace mean easier walking but some lane closures may persist near the post office.
- The Brig Amity replica has reopened after hull repairs; it’s on the waterfront and free to board.
- The Albany Summer Festival ends in late June, so expect thinner local events until the whale-watching season ramps up in September.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Sixdegrees, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (above the first floor) to minimize noise from the street, especially on Frederick Street. Given the hotel's 3-star rating and its location in the city center, it's likely that the rooms on the lower floors may be closer to the street and potentially noisier.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms on the ground floor (first floor) may be noisier due to the small step at the front door and potential foot traffic.
Best views
Unfortunately, there's no information available about the hotel's orientation or the views from the rooms. However, given the hotel's location in Albany, which is known for its scenic coastline, it's possible that some rooms may have views of the surrounding city or nearby buildings.
Quietest floors
Floors 2-4 are likely to be the quietest, given the hotel's layout and the fact that there's no lift. However, keep in mind that stairs can be a challenge for some guests.
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from Frederick Street is a potential issue, especially on lower floors. The lack of a lift and accessible rooms or bathrooms may also be a challenge for some guests.
Insider tips
Be aware that there's no on-site parking, so plan ahead and factor in the $8/day cost for parking at the nearby Town Square car park. It's a 10-minute walk away. Consider requesting a room with free street parking available on Frederick Street, but be mindful of the limited availability and potential noise from the street.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
