Coogee Bay Boutique Hotel

Had to change dates due to travel disaster but the wonderful Vicki not only squeezed us in she gave us a complimentary upgrade. The room was everything we needed and more. Lovely balcony, plenty of space with beautiful bathroom products. Offered parking for our over height van. Brilliant location. What a wonderful few days!

We booked a four night stay at Coogee Bay Boutique Hotel, and while the room itself was beautiful and the location was great, there were some major drawbacks. For starters, we were travelling as a couple with a baby, and the room we were put in was on the second floor in a part of the building that had no lift. This meant we had to carry our pram up and down two flights of stairs every time we went out, as there was nowhere the pram could be securely left on the ground floor. Secondly, the windows were paper thin so you could hear every single noise from the street, as well as the pub below. This made for three nights of little sleep for both us and our baby, and as a result we ended up checking out early and not staying for the last night. And finally, we noticed a pretty major safety issue in our room. Our room had a window seat, and the double hung windows open so that the opening is at the bottom. One of these windows opened far enough that a child would easily be able to fall out of the window, especially with the window seat right there at the same level. This was very concerning, especially given we were on the second floor. Overall, the location is fantastic, and the room was very spacious, but some acoustic treatment would go a long way. I also suggest for anyone who decides to stay here that needs use of a lift for a pram, mobility reasons, or otherwise, make sure you are put in a room in the part of the hotel that does have a lift.

Really nice rooms, comfortable bed, very clean, lots of charm and character. The gent on reception who checked us in was one of the most pleasant receptionist team members I've been greeted by. Natasha in events was very prompt, helpful and courteous also.

I would rate this stay –1 star if I could. While I understand the hotel notes upon booking that weekends can be noisy, the level of noise was absolutely unacceptable. It was impossible to get any rest, and management needs to take genuine steps to address this issue rather than just disclaiming it in advance. On top of that, the room itself was in very poor condition. The windows were filthy, and the bed and surrounding furniture were dirty and clearly not properly cleaned before our arrival. This is well below the standard expected of a boutique hotel. Unless these issues are resolved, I cannot recommend this property to anyone.

Coogee Bay Boutique Hotel is hands down my favourite place to stay when travelling for work. The service is amazing — the staff are always so friendly and helpful. The location is perfect, close to everything you need, and just steps from the beach. I always feel welcome and well looked after. Already looking forward to my next stay in November! Highly recommend.

Room 309. Bedroom furnishings lovely, very clean room overall. Bathroom a decent size but sink has been pushed into a small space and very little surface space in the bathroom to rest things on. Thankfully bedroom is spacious which almost makes up for it. Shower head not really adjustable which is annoying. Very good toiletries and complimentary water in the fridge. Buffet breakfast not good; limited choice, cold toast left on the counter, eggs were like liquid and we arrived at 7.20am but breakfast was still only being set up.

It's so easy to stay here, with clean, spacious rooms and an excellent location. Breakfast - a bit crap - give that a miss, but all else is lovely! Love it!

We’ve stayed here three times now when visiting Sydney and can’t recommend it enough! The staff are always so accommodating and helpful, and the location is excellent, within easy walking distance to everything. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and perfect for a stay. Already planning our next visit!
