The Blue Hotel Bondi

Although this hotel is very conveniently located, just 5 minutes away from Bondi beach, I wouldn’t recommend staying there. We paid just over 1,000 Australian dollars for two nights, since it is a four star hotel; however what we got was far from the expected. During my stay I didn’t see anyone and the communication was done through WhatsApp. The check-in process was messy, they send you the information via email, the wifi was not accessible so I needed to connect on the internet of the bakery next door to be able to receive the check-in information. The room itself is spacious (We booked the King Suite room) but the room wasn’t too clean, the bed was not properly made, and the duvet was very dirty, the furniture was old and rugged. The internet in the room kept dropping, which was very inconvenient. There is no cleaning service unless you pay extra (and this information I only found out after reading reviews online). The checkout is at 10, which is too early, we had to pay extra 50 dollars to stay two more hours. Once again, when you pay 500 AUD a night, the expectations are those of a four star hotel, not what feels more like a hostel.

This is a very efficient and practical hotel. Love it! Highly recommend. All kinds of charge head available, very thoughtful 👍

The room was good sized, clean and the bed comfortable. The only issue is its noisy - but they supplied ear plugs which helped. It is a busy part of Sydney and lots of night time revelers :)

Great location for visiting Bondi Beach
