Super easy Coogee Beach access
We had a great time! Thank you. Reminded me of hotels in England and Ireland of my childhood. Nice and very accommodating office staff (thank you for holding our luggage on check out day so we had time to site see) and quiet but good space also for a rainy day. Super easy access to Coogee beach and wonderful Wylie’s rock pool. Thanks again for a nice stay!

Fabulous view from the front rooms (and higher rates of course). A mix of old and new, the old sometimes showing wear. Beach is great for swimming in all but the most serious conditions.

Do NOT book to stay here. We do not recommend this property at all. Checkin was communicated as being between 2pm and 8pm. We arrived at 2:45 pm. The hotel was all locked up. No one was answering the phone. The mobile phone number posted on the front door did not work. We had paid $400 for one night. We stayed outside the property emailing and calling the property until 4 pm. Still no response. Appalling. If it was not for the customer support of wotif, which was excellent, we would have had nowhere to stay and likely lost our money.

A well located option with a bit of character. Not a good place to stay if you have suitcases, and you can hear people in the hallways and in other rooms. But we loved the vibe of this option and would stay again.

The Dive hotel is an older facility that has certain charm (e.g. high ceilings and tin ceiling) and check in was simple, with clear instructions. But the bathroom in particular needed attention. The shower stall had mold in the grout (needed to be bleached and scrubbed) and it was clear that things had been pulled off the walls without repair or repainting. At first we were pleased with the communal dining area as we were leaving very early and thought we could have a simple breakfast. But our coffee and cereal were ruined by spoiled milk in the refrigerator. Had we known the night before that the milk was spoiled we could have picked up some from a dairy. The Dive hotel is inexpensive, but not necessarily a great bargain.

Poor hotel
Not so good, a tired and tatty hotel. No staff on the premises. Described as upmarket 4 star hotel, certainly not this.

OK option if you don't need too much comfort
Funky old building across the street from the beach in Coogee. We chose this hotel specifically to be near friends who live in the neighborhood. The room (#19) was adequately comfortable and large. All communication with the owner/operator was done via email/text message. There is a kitchen, but no real provided services at the hotel other than maybe coffee or tea. We did stay at this property about 10 years ago, and stayed here again because we knew it and because it was a little less expensive that other nearby hotels. However, I feel that it was expensive for the services we received, the overall quality of the stay and the rundown condition of the building.

This is an old property that is right across thecstreet from the beach. It offers a nice comfortable room and bed. Nothing else. Never saw a staff person. Room keys are in lock boxes.
