Wildlife Retreat at Taronga

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing experience and the best views from the lobby and restaurant."

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

Mercure Sydney Manly Warringah

"Would prefer checking in with staff rather than using computer as it doesn't take into account the requirements we had asked for when booking."

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."
