Burswood Location and Precinct Layout
Crown Perth occupies a dedicated precinct on the eastern bank of the Swan River in Burswood. Secondary sources record the site as being approximately 3 kilometres from the Perth central business district, with Perth Airport situated approximately 10 kilometres east of the CBD. The complex brings three separate hotel properties together around a central entertainment complex, alongside Burswood Parklands and the Swan River foreshore.
For visitors traveling on foot or attending events nearby, Optus Stadium sits a short 15 to 20-minute walk north along the Burswood foreshore. The layout allows hotel guests to move between accommodation, dining venues, and transit stops without leaving the main precinct footprint. If you are comparing Australian properties by geographic spread, review our transit and distance comparison table or inspect the map to see how Burswood compares to interstate capital complexes.
Public Transit and Burswood Station Shuttle
Public transport connections run primarily through Burswood train station, located on the Armadale and Thornlie rail lines at the north-eastern end of Burswood Park. To connect guests between the rail network and the complex entrance, Crown Perth operates a complimentary shuttle bus service. The shuttle picks up passengers outside the main food court entrance and drops off directly at Burswood station.
The complimentary shuttle runs Sunday through Thursday and on public holidays from 9:00 am to 7:55 pm. On Friday and Saturday, operations extend from 9:00 am until 8:55 pm. The service does not operate during annual casino closure hours on Christmas Day, Good Friday, or ANZAC Day (between 3:00 am and 12:00 pm). Dedicated taxi ranks are also established at the Riverside Entrance on Victoria Park Drive for door-to-door transit.
