About Lobby Lounge

Lobby Lounge is an elegant hotel bar and café located within Crown Metropol Perth, part of the Crown Perth resort complex in Burswood, Western Australia. It offers specialty coffee and tea, pastries, light meals, cocktails, wine, and an afternoon high tea service in a relaxed, upscale setting. While the venue itself is in Perth, some bank statements may display the merchant location as Melbourne, Victoria, where Crown Resorts’ head office and payment processor are based.

A charge from “LOBBY LOUNGE”, “CROWN PERTH LOBBY LOUNGE”, or similar wording may appear on your statement if you purchased drinks, coffee, high tea, or light meals at the Lobby Lounge bar, or if you charged items to your room while staying at Crown Metropol Perth or another Crown Perth hotel. You might also see charges related to a group booking, function, or high tea reservation, and in some cases a pre-authorisation hold if your card was used to open a bar tab or guarantee a booking. These transactions are generally one‑off charges in Australian dollars (AUD), but can be processed a day or two after your visit, which can cause confusion when reviewing your statement later.

To verify the charge, start by checking your recent visits to Crown Perth, including any hotel stays, bar or restaurant visits, or high tea bookings around the transaction date. Look for itemised receipts in your email (if you requested electronic receipts) or any hotel folios provided at check‑out. If you still have questions, contact Crown Perth directly via crownperth.com.au or by calling Crown Perth Guest Services and request a copy of the bill for the date and amount in question—have your card’s last four digits, charge amount, and date ready. Common issues such as duplicated charges, incorrect tip amounts, or unsettled pre‑authorisation holds can usually be resolved by the venue or Crown’s central billing team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from Lobby Lounge or Crown Perth on my statement when I was in a hotel or casino?

Lobby Lounge is one of the bars inside the Crown Metropol Perth hotel at the Crown Perth resort. If you visited any Crown Perth venues (hotel, casino, restaurants, bars) and paid at Lobby Lounge or had items posted to your room that were fulfilled by Lobby Lounge (e.g., coffee, drinks, high tea), the consolidated billing system may show “Lobby Lounge”, “Crown Perth”, or a similar descriptor. Sometimes the back‑office location may display as Melbourne, VIC, even though you made the purchase in Perth.

What are typical amounts for a Lobby Lounge charge?

Most Lobby Lounge transactions are one‑time charges in AUD. Typical amounts might include around $5–$7 AUD for coffee or tea, $15–$30 AUD for cocktails or wine by the glass, and larger totals (often $60–$150+ AUD) for multiple drinks, light meals, or high tea for two or more people. If your charge matches a restaurant or bar‑sized total from a recent visit to Crown Perth, it is likely from Lobby Lounge or a related venue using the same billing system.

Why is there a higher amount on my card than the bill I signed at Lobby Lounge?

When you open a bar tab or pay by card at Lobby Lounge, the system may place a pre‑authorisation for an amount slightly higher than your initial spend to cover tips or additional items. This can appear as a pending charge that exceeds your final bill. After the transaction is settled—typically within 1–5 business days—the pending hold should drop off and only the final, signed amount will remain as the actual charge.

Can I dispute or get a refund for a Lobby Lounge charge I don’t recognise?

If you don’t recognise the charge, first contact Crown Perth directly and request a copy of the docket or folio for the date and amount shown on your statement. If there is a clear error—such as a duplicated charge, incorrect amount, or a bar tab that was not yours—Lobby Lounge or Crown Perth’s accounts team can usually process a reversal or refund back to your card. If you still believe the charge is fraudulent and cannot resolve it with the venue, contact your bank to dispute the transaction.

Why does my statement show Lobby Lounge in Melbourne when I visited Perth?

Although Lobby Lounge is physically located at Crown Metropol Perth in Burswood, Western Australia, some card processors display the merchant’s registered or head‑office location, which for Crown Resorts is often listed as Melbourne, VIC. This can make a legitimate Perth transaction appear as if it occurred in Melbourne. Check the transaction date, amount, and any recent visit to Crown Perth to confirm if it matches your activity.

Can Lobby Lounge charges appear on my hotel bill instead of separately on my card?

Yes. If you were staying at Crown Metropol Perth or another Crown Perth hotel and chose to “charge to room” at Lobby Lounge, your purchases would be added to your room folio instead of being charged directly at the bar. In that case, your bank statement may show a single larger charge from the hotel at checkout rather than individual Lobby Lounge transactions. Reviewing your hotel invoice or folio will show the detailed breakdown, including any Lobby Lounge items.

How can I get a copy of my receipt for a Lobby Lounge transaction?

To obtain a copy of your receipt, contact Crown Perth through the details provided on crownperth.com.au or call their main guest services line and provide the date, approximate time, amount, and last four digits of the card used. If the charge was posted to your room, you can request a copy of your hotel folio, which will include Lobby Lounge charges. The accounts team can generally email you an itemised receipt once they locate the transaction.

What should I do if a pending Lobby Lounge charge doesn’t disappear?

Pending pre‑authorisation holds from Lobby Lounge or other Crown Perth venues usually clear within 1–5 business days, depending on your bank. If a hold remains pending for longer than a week or if both the hold and a final charge are reducing your available balance, contact Crown Perth and your bank with details of the transaction. Crown can confirm the settlement status, and your bank can manually release an expired hold if necessary.
