Top Shelly Beach Hotel Reviews

The Sebel Sydney Manly Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, with exceptionally friendly staff. Our room was superb, with its own mini kitchen area and sofa and the wireless charging ports were an added bonus. Highly recommend."

Stay At Ivanhoe Apartments Manly Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful rooms. Clean kitchen and bathroom. Above expectations. Great central spot. Great Mexican bar close by. Short walk from the ferry. Loved it."

Manly Waves Studios & Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Location to Manly beach is excellent. It was very clean and quiet. We would stay there again."

Cosy Manly Beach Hideaway

8/10 Good

"Very family friendly, especially if for young children. Great range of books and games in the cupboards upstairs.Only one bathroom did cause a few issues with 6 adults. Oven was practically unusable, fan function did not work and neither did the grill. It took ages to preheat on convection and is very old and not clean.The beds were quite comfortable, pillows very comfy. Shower very powerful - as were all the water outlets. Shower does let water out so make sure you have a towel and mat down each time it’s used as floor is extremely slippy when wet.Laundry facilities good, all simple to use.Stairs up to apartment were slippery when wet - take care.Kitchen was well stocked but crockery had all seen better days.Fabulous location but even with a parking permit be prepared to walk some distance to find a parking spot. Overall a very dated accommodation that was surface clean, convenient location and comfortable."

Elysium Manly

10/10 Excellent

"Gorgeous hotel! Amenities were great and the property has an excellent staff! Proximity to the beach is amazing! Highly recommend!"

Q Station Sydney Harbour National Park by Accor

8/10 Good

"It helped that I had a magnificent 180 degree harbour view and I was fascinated by the conversion of the old Quarantine Station into a hotel. It has been beautifully done without losing the history. The bed was very comfortable and the shuttle buses work flat out to move guests around because it is not possible to drive yourself to your room. The only problem is that unless you bring food, you have to buy it at one of the pricey restaurants or the cafe at the wharf. One breakfast and one small dinner added almost another $100 to my bill for a one night stay. But I would go there again; it was very pleasant."

Bright & Peaceful Top-Floor Retreat with Harbour Views

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Close to Manly ferry terminal, the centre, and the ocean beach, only a couple of mins walk to everything. Quiet at night, ideal location."

Peppers Manly Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel, ideal position and friendly staff. Spacious rooms, modern and well maintained."

Madonna | Ocean Views | Walk to Freshwater & Manly

10/10 Excellent

"Great views, great apartment, great spot. The one toilet worked fine for our group of six."
