Top Shelly Beach Hotel Reviews

Manly Waves Studios & Apartments

8/10 Good

"It was a good base as within 15 mins walk of the Corso and seconds from the beach. Only gripe was that it could do with attention to decoration and sealant/fitting around the basin area but very serviceable."

Elysium Manly

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel, expensive but nice!"

The Albert Hotel Mosman

8/10 Good

"The hotel is well appointed and located. The room was comfortable, bathroom even better. The hotel has a musty, damp odour however which was unpleasant. Improved with the a/c on but still lingered in the hallways and lift."

Mercure Sydney Manly Warringah

8/10 Good

"The place was close to where we wanted to be with good access to shops and places to eat."

Peppers Manly Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Great location with a great view from the balcony overlooking the beach. A short walk the the ferry terminal one one direction and the mall in the other. The room was perfect for a couple whether you want to relax in the unit or do some sightseeing or dining."

Watsons Bay Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the stay. Although the hallway carpets had abit of smell"

Stay At Ivanhoe Apartments Manly Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Room was amazing, especially for price. Floors definitely needed a vacuum as there was sand throughout the apartment, not visible to the eye due to the flooring but had to dust off feet before hoping into bed"

The Sebel Sydney Manly Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location in Manly with great amenities nearby! I recently stayed at The Sebel in Manly and had a wonderful time. The property is in a truly prime location! Just a heads-up for future travelers: the hotel sits right behind The Peppers, so you don't get a direct view of the ocean from your room. However, the beach is only a few minutes' walk away, where you can take in the beautiful sea views. The surrounding area is incredibly convenient. The main road is lined with plenty of great eateries and pubs. I highly recommend trying the in-house restaurant at The Peppers next door—the food there is absolutely delicious and very affordable! It does get quite busy at dinner time, so it's a good idea to book a table in advance. If you're visiting over the weekend, the Saturday Markets are just a short walk away and definitely worth checking out. A few quick tips on getting here and parking: • By Ferry: If you're taking the Sydney Ferry to Manly, it’s an easy, flat walk to the hotel that takes less than 10 minutes. • By Car: There is no free parking available. Street parking is all metered, or you can use the hotel's secure car park for around $40. Overall, it's a brilliant base for exploring Manly, and I would definitely stay here again!"

Stoke Beach House - Hostel

8/10 Good

"I don’t mind the property, but what would I change breakfast at 7 AM would work better and also add shampoo and conditioner to every shower because now my hair is greasy and I don’t have the budget to buy more."
