Less posh/poseur than Bondi, Coogee Beach is our home for 2 nights, and nowhere is more central than Coogee Bay Hotel. We initially wanted to book the Bay Suite overlooking the beach but instead stayed at the newer wing for its (relative) peacefulness. Our Boutique Ocean Studio is huge and comes with a sofa bed and a bathtub although the beach is in the distance. The hotel itself has a restaurant, a sports bar and even a liquor store (as seen from the balcony from our room); within 3 minutes walk there are numerous restaurants and groceries as well - we had dinner at Coogee Wine Room which was amazing - so whether you like Asian, European or fast food, you will never get bored. But the best of all is Coogee Beach itself: to the south is the Ross Jones Memorial Pool and to the north beyond the Bali Memorial is the world-famous Bondi-Coogee walk. We spent 9 days in Sydney and around, and Coogee especially at sunrise was the highlight of our trip.
