Spent the weekend here earlier this month with my partner and young child. Thoroughly enjoyed the place, which is very unusual, very quiet, large grounds to explore and a nice private beach. The room was well appointed, clean and very nice with plenty of room. No internet access but good mobile coverage so the personal hotspot worked well! It is... More

Rooms were tastefully furnished and had a little charm. Bed was comfortable. Was staying their for a conference and found that there was always something missing, food was a little plain and boring, rooms had no air conditioning, alcohol was hugely expensive ($250 for a case of beer). The most frustrating thing though was the lack of internet at all... More

Certainly something different to staying in a standard hotel. The grounds are quiet yet hilly so use the free bus service (bus stops and phones are dotted around the grounds). Recommend visit to the visitors centre and a read through the history of the area. Re rooms, request a room facing water with own bathroom. The rooms are clean and... More

I can't believe the other few recent reviews and wonder if they were staying at the same place! We were a party of 8 staying in 4 rooms for 2 nights from Australia Day. The staff - everyone we met - receptionists, bus drivers, wait staff at breakfast and dinner - were all friendly and helpful. The accommodation was completely... More

I stayed for Australia Day and thoroughly enjoyed my stay even though the weather wasn't good. The staff were friendly particularly the fellow driving the little mini bus who takes you to your room. But it was the view and peaceful environment that makes it so great. Just make sure you ask for a view; it makes all the difference.... More

This hotel is grossly overpriced, staff are poorly trained, restaurant and bar areas are grubby. Reception area is unwelcoming. Rooms are small, few items in bar fridge, no cooling in room (which faces west). Rooms near breakfast room totally lack privacy and are noisy. More

Our family getaway got off to a bad start with an argument (with the Q Station staff) over the tarrif for our group of six. I held my ground based on the price advertised not only on the site through whom I booked and prepaid, but the hotel's very own website. I ended up having to get the booking company... More

We stayed in one of the cottages, good for families as it had nice rooms and a kitchen and sitting room. You are allowed to drive in if you stay in a cottage, and park in a nearby car park, but should you dare to drive around the front, even just to drop off heavy luggage for a moment, staff... More

My girlfriend and I stayed here in November 2011 for one night. We arrived 40 minutes prior to our check in time and our room was not ready, which was fine since we were early. The lady at reception told us it would be ready soon and she would call me on my mobile, and to go and explore. We... More

We spent just one night at Q Station. It is a quirky and different place to stay in Manly. The rooms are clean and well sized, and it is a good place to stay in your only intention is to hide away from everything, and if you don't want or need to visit Manly very much. Leaving the resort is... More
