Hotel Dekat Lionel Bowen Library

"Great boutique hotel that served my purpose to a T. I had a late check-in, but the after hours process was very easy. Conveniently located and a short walking distance to some good restaurants."

"Staff went out of their way to help me with my bags, the room was really lovely and had a balcony with a wonderful view of the beach. Location was amazing. Be aware that it is a venue for live music, the Sunday night I stayed the band was playing downstairs until about 11pm. Would absolutely stay here again!!"

"Faultless, great staff , amazing room and top location.. close to food & transport"

"Clean room and serviced every day. Good location for local shops, light rail buses and an easy walk down to Coogee Beach."

"Great location. Perfect for Swans games and walks along the coast"

"Great sized apartment, clean and comfortable."

"I had to stop someone entering my room at 7 am. The person was not a cleaner and opened my door with a key They apologised and said sorry wrong room and left The door could only be opened by key "

"The hostel is cosy and social. It’s not a party hostel, but people do socialise in the kitchen. The beds are the drawback here - they are rickety and every time someone moves in their bed, you can hear the springs. Also my bed moved every time the guy in the top bunk rolled around. I’m 193cm and couldn’t stretch out in the bed. Difficult to sleep. If you value your sleep, find another place. "

"Great spot for an overnight concert in Sydney with teenagers. Central to everything"

"Great location and the room was clean but that’s about as far as the positives go. The room was very outdated with a tiny bathroom and the tap kept falling off while trying to adjust the shower temperature. Felt more like a backpackers than a hotel. The key for the front door is easily accessible to the general public if you know where to look and the rooms didn’t lock from the inside. We thought the hotel looked quirky from the photos but it needs some serious TLC."

"Great location but the ramp in the carpark is a pain in the arse. Very difficult to manoeuvre without damaging your car"

"Great place to stay would recommend"

"Room was very small,not the impression that was given on the internet. Shower room was very small. Loose tap on sink. Bedroom was very small It did have an iron and "table " ironing board but I had to use the floor. Did have a hairdryer. Advert said it had breakfast but no, only had a small communal kitchen. Staff were very helpful Very well located for tram,bus and high street. Very close to Cooggee beach Easy transport to Sydney."

"Convenient location for trams, great coffee/ bakery 200metres away, staff very helpful"

"Truly an incredible stay! The staff is amazing, the property is stunning, and the location is perfection."
