The Stirling center is about 4 miles north of SCITECH Discovery Centre and 5 miles north of Perth Parliament House.
Below are reviews of the city of Stirling, Australia from an actual visitor's perspective.
It's in a great location with a good selection of wonderful shops, cafes and restaurants to choose from. You don't have to go anywhere else to get what you need. It's close to the city if you do need to go there for appointments and has a great transport network. Our son lives in Stirling so when we come up to Perth we usually only stay and shop in Stirling as everything we want and need is close by.
