We got upgraded to the 1st floor with balcony. The views over coogee beach were awesome but i feel that for the price we paid ($250) it was a bit steep for what we got.

One of our top picks in Sydney.This small boutique hotel is ideally located on Coogee Beach, in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. It is only a 20 minute drive from Sydney Airport and the central business district. Some rooms offer lovely ocean views.

Dive Hotel offers modern rooms and continental breakfast served indoors, outdoors, or by the garden. Guests can enjoy walks in nearby parks and along cliff-top trails.

From Dive Hotel, guests can take a bus to downtown Sydney, the Opera House and Randwick Racecourse. Coogee's thriving restaurants, nightclubs and cafés are only a short walk away.

Coogee is a great choice for travelers interested in beaches, cafes and scenery.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.5 for a two-person trip.

“Cool beach side small hotel, skip the more expensive hotels”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 1 night

Toilet gargle, some steep stairs, pricy hotel rate, small tv, firm bed. But on balance the many positives out weighted the minor negatives.
Excellent small Hotel with a cool beach side feel. Perfect if you like hanging at the beach. The nearby Coogee restaurant's are plentiful and tasty. The traffic was constant but not too loud, you can shut the door to the balcony anytime. Otherwise enjoy looking at the surf which is rolling in down the hill and across the sand a short walk away. Coogee beach is very popular so you can enjoy the sand and water with many other people, but they were mostly respectful of each other so it's no problem, and not too over crowded. There are lifesaver on duty up to about 7pm. The room was large by most hotel standards with high ceilings, it had a small kitchen with microwave, sink, fridge, some plates cups etc. Also a separate bathroom with large shower etc. The hot water took a minute to arrive but was plentiful with enormous water pressure. The toilet did bubble and gurgling each time the plumbing was used, not a big deal. The seats outside on the balcony were hard but it was a nice view. The free breakfast was self-serve which was ok because we just had coffee and went out for a serious cooked breakfast, but if your on a tight budget there was toast jam cereal etc. We grabbed some beach towels from the stock in back yard where there was a washing machine and dryer to use if needed. The air conditioning was powerful enough without being too cool, just right, and not noisy. The TV was smallish but ok with a reasonable picture, sound was a bit distorted at higher loud volume. Not sure why the separate DVD player from 1995 was there as well. I didn't plug in my chrome device but I could see the the TV would support htmi plug. The bed was a little too firm for my liking but I had a good night's sleep on the king sized double. The pillows were just ok. It was a nice touch to supply 2 x bathrobes. The stairs up to the front door were steep and long and not suitable for anyone who can't drag themselves and luggage up there.

There was nothing wrong with the stay at all, except I left some clothing behind and am hoping to still pick it up.
We didn't have breakfast as we needed to be somewhere else, but it was very friendly and easy. I would recommend this to others.

The building smelt old & musty! This continued into a clean but quite dated room. I did learn that it has been recently sold, and will be pulled down soon! Had to pay $30p.n. for a car parking space out the back.
The view on the balcony (between the blinds) was of wonderful Coogee Bay beach & location... Just a minute or less from restaurants and the beach!
