I have never stayed at the Steyne as this was my local pub when I was growing up. I have watched this pub evolve over the years (for the better) and, whenever I am back at home visiting, I always go for a beer or two and sit watching the surf whilst tucking into a nice steak. Yes, i am... More

This place would have been ideal, except that my room was directly about the TAB and it sounded like there was a radio on in my room. I asked to be moved but the hotel was full. It was so loud I couldn't nap (and I needed to). I was also roused on by a security guard out on the... More

Pros: Close to action of Manly Beach (above bar) Close to Ferry and buses Sink in-room Cons: Above a bar Showers were moldy and one did not have a ceiling I'd stay here again if I was on the same around-the-world budget. I'd stay somewhere else if I was going just to this location as a vacation.

This hotel is FUN! Good food and lots of activities downstairs. If that is what you're looking for you will LOVE The Steyne! We had a great time, but truth be told the rooms are over the center court yard and the party goes on until late in the morning most nigths. Also, the shared bathroom was pretty run down... More

The Steyne is a great place to take people from overseas to experience the beach pub, a choice of beers, big open windows to let the breeze in. Nice relaxed atmosphere after work.

We had to make an urgent booking for one night due to attendening a funeral in Manly. The location was perfect as was the view over Manly beach, not that the veiw was an important facture for this trip. That is where the pluses finish, we booked a Deluxe King Room and from the photograph on the web site an... More

First of all, this hotel consists of rooms above a pub right across the street from Manly beach. It really should be listed as being in Manly, not Sydney. Manly is in the Sydney metropolitan area, but you would never stay at the Steyne as a way to stay in Sydney. You would stay at the Steyne to have a... More

Had a look at the rooms here and they are not nice at all. Better off staying in one of the motels/guesthouses.

We arrived prior to the check in time and the receptionist went out of her way to have our room ready there and then. The location is great for enjoying Manly's beach and bars/restaurants but as the previous reviewer mentioned, not ideal at the weekends. The Steyne is a popular night time spot with various bars taking up the vast... More
