The location of course. How quiet is was. That you had access to your own private beach. The museum was very interesting, and the rooms were very comfortable. Romantic getaway !!

Neil, Japan

Beautiful, stunning location. Great accommodation, café, restaurant & bar. Excellent selection for breakfast. Interesting historical site and museum. Unfortunately baby stingray season made swimming a danger, as several people were stung. Rather excellent that no visitors cars are permitted on site. Staff were helpful and friendly, especially the shuttle bus drivers. Thank you Q for another lovely stay. Suzanne

In the heart of Sydney Harbour National Park – Manly, this unique hotel features a peaceful and romantic retreat or a fully equipped base for business with stunning views out over Sydney Harbour.

Sydney's only hotel with a private beach, Q Station has been beautifully restored to create elegant accommodations, just a 5-minute drive from Manly or 30 minutes by ferry from the city.

Each room looks out over stunning Sydney Harbour or the Australian bush. The stylish rooms are furnished with a queen bed for your comfort.

The Visitor’s Centre can arrange a variety of unique experiences, allowing you to explore the history of Q Station. Try one of the many walks in the area, with paths suitable for everyone’s energy levels. Ghost and haunted tours around the property are also available.

In the evening, enjoy fresh and modern cuisine at the Boilerhouse Restaurant and Bar, with stunning views out over Sydney Harbour.

Manly is a great choice for travelers interested in scenery, walking and convenient public transportation.

Beautiful property with rich history. We celebrated our wedding anniversary here and absolutely loved it. Great location, comfortable rooms and so much to do within the property. The shuttle service was very efficient, though we preferred to walk but when needed, we could just call for it at our convenience. We surely recommend to my family and friends.
