The hotel is excellent however it is at the end of a dead end street which also serves as a late night taxi pick-up point for the countless number of drunks coming from the large bar next door.

Coogee Sands hotel is looking a bit tired and is in need of an upgrade. The furnishings in the room are all a bit old, stained curtains, soft furnishing faded and used looking. Also a problem with a roach infestation in my room. Very disappointing.

Lovely central stay

Lovely hotel, nice room with a sofa aswell as a bed and a little kitchenette area. We arrived early but the staff had our room ready so we could check straight in. We also got late check out which is only an extra hour but helpful all the same. Excellent location.
