    Having to pay $30 for parking and over the bar can understandably be noisy. They did warn me about the noise and offered to move us to the boutique hotel, but the sea views were more important to me.

    We had room 128 which had a separate lounge, 2 lovely bay windows and a balcony overlooking the beach.

    On a Saturday night the music in the adjoining Hotel goes on till 1am and is loud.

    Lovely staff. Free upgrade to Boutique side of hotel due to expected noise from adjoining hotel. Great underground parking although it cost extra. Close to cafes for breakfast. Room spacious, comfotable beds and large bathroom. All nicely furnished. Very central to beach and other Coogee facilities.

    We could not find fault at all.

    We arrived earlier than expected and asked for an early check in, the hotel were very helpful by checking us in at 12-00 midday instead of their normal 3-00pm check in. Anything we asked for was no trouble at all, staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was excellent with beach 100 metres from the hotel and a vast array of bars, pubs restaurants along the strip.

    Excellent location, directly across the street from the beach area. Many restaurants within walking distance. Front desk personnel were very helpful and accommodating. We stayed in the newer section of the hotel, which has very quiet rooms.

    Good location directly at the beach, nice room with a great terrace. As stated, the rooms are accessible only by stairs, but that did not bother me. Some reviews said, it would be noisy because of the garden restaurant directly under the rooms, but I heard nothing of it when the windows/doors where closed.

    Good for a short-ish stay facing the beach and excellent people watching from the balcony.
    • Leisure trip

    • King Suite with Ocean View

    Rooms on this (top) level have a balcony that was very sunny and has no roof, so lots of sun on the balcony in the morning, i.e. too much if hot, and no good if raining. The on-site car park under the boutique hotel is a long way from the front of the building which means a long carry of your stuff to get to the rooms, with no lift and a fair amount of stairs and corridors to navigate (but the staff helped with the carry when we checked in). Not as self-contained as a proper apartment alas, by which I mean only a small bar fridge, and no kitchenette to speak of. To my memory, no proper table to eat off, either. Which is a shame, as the rooms are quite big enough to be a good home away from home otherwise.

    OK, this was one of the best (also most expensive) rooms in what is a sprawling pub complex in a very busy and relatively prestigious location, namely, the Coogee beach front on the main strip. It has all the facilities of a large pub: bars, restaurants etc. This review is about the rooms in the main pub building at the front of the complex, not the boutique hotel at the back, which is where the car park is. This was a good suite, comfortably furnished, balcony great for people watching, and very sunny with no roof so you can watch the stars at night. Balcony is shaded in the afternoon. Our particular room was far enough from the main beer garden area that there was no noise problems from the pub. They let us leave our car in their car park for a few hours after we checked out for no extra cost, which if you know Coogee, is a bonus.
