I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is absolutely fantastic, right across from the beach, making it perfect for a beach holiday. The rooms were clean and spacious, providing a comfortable stay. However, I faced issues with the service, as the staff was rather unhelpful during a concerning situation. Overall, it was a decent place to stay, but the service could really use some improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at this boutique hotel. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the cleanliness is commendable.

Overall, it offers good value for money if you prioritize comfort and proximity to the beach.

My stay at Coogee Bay Hotel was quite a mix of highs and lows. While I enjoyed a clean and spacious room with a quite nice modern bathroom, the noise from the pub was a significant drawback. The service in the brasserie was disappointing, with staff seeming more interested in chatting with each other than attending to guests. I also found the location to be its best asset, being right by the beach and conveniently close to various eateries. Unfortunately, my dining experience left much to be desired, with limited breakfast choices and some items not up to standard. Overall, it was a decent stay, but I wouldn't rush back.

Overall, it could be improved, but it has its good moments.
