Top Watsons Bay Beach Hotel Reviews

Shangri-La Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Great room, amazing views of the opera house and harbour. Very helpful staff, and in particular the bell team. Also had a lovely dinner in the rooftop restaurant. Great stay and highly recommended"

Elysium Manly

8/10 Good

"Check in was efficient. All the staff throughout my stay were excellent. Breakfast was great. My criticism is the lack of clothes storage in the room. I had a king Seaview; There was an open hanging space but no drawers and only a couple of shelves for clothes. For a 6 night stay this was inadequate for a solo traveller, it would have been doubly difficult for a couple. There is no full length mirror and no makeup mirror. There were no cushions on the wooden bench. The room would benefit from some additional soft furnishings and pictures."

The Albert Hotel Mosman

8/10 Good

"Our stay was fine but we had no parking. After attending a wedding we returned to the hotel in the late evening and had to find street parking before heading to room."

The Sebel Sydney Manly Beach

10/10 Excellent

"I had a lovely big room with small kitchen facilities, fresh water everyday. However, no daily refresh and there are no real bathroom ammenities ie, make up remover pads, earbuds or shower cap, so make sure you bring your own. Only instant coffee :-( I’m on a work trip and needed a late check out which they gave me. Lovely Yum Cha restaurant next door which I ate at a lot because it was handy and good and I didn’t want to venture out in the rain."

Stay at Hotel Steyne

8/10 Good

"The rooms were Comfortable and very clean. Very helpful staff at reception. It was very noisy though. Loud music until early morning hours. I had to use earplugs. Toilets were not very clean at the restaurant/ bar area."

Q Station Sydney Harbour National Park by Accor

8/10 Good

"Stunning views and Reception staff and Shuttle services were very good too."

Cremorne Point Manor

8/10 Good

"Good experience all round"

Watsons Bay Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"It was nice but I expected a bit more for the price. The car park was difficult to get as it’s a very busy place and area and the guest car park gets filled with people who aren’t staying. That’s not the staff’s fault but it’s impossible to enforce. Overall, it was a lovely stay."
