    Great stay and will go...

    Pros: Beautiful location. Room were simple but clean and comfortable. Great shower. Lovely place to wander around with lots of information boards to read the history. Tour staff where great
    Cons: Food is a bit pricey. The 24hr weekend shuttle bus is a great way to get around the site but a few times it took much longer for it to arrive than the normal 10 mins.

    Fiona

    Good

    Beautiful location

    Pros: Great location, beautiful views of Sydney Harbour. The shuttle service is good,drive you down to your room and pick you up. Lots of history behind Q Station We ordered uber eats on the first night, and reception brought it to our room,plates, and cutlery. Nice and peaceful place to stay.
    Cons: I'm not a fan of leaving the room to use the bathroom,shower,fill up your kettle, especially in the middle of the night,found it a bit creepy but there are rooms with a bathroom so look out for that. There were cobwebs with live spiders around the windows, and I was a bit worried they'd crawl down while sleeping. The TV lags and always drops out.

    Good

    Pros: The beach was actually beautiful. It is a short drive to get into manly. The whole place had so much character and history. We wish we had been there during a ghost tour. The grounds are beautiful and easy to walk if you have a moderate level of fitness. There was wildlife around to see as well.
    Cons: My kids slept on the sofa bed and they were not very comfortable. They said the mattress kept falling through the springs.

  • Hotel review by Kelvin

    Pleasant

    Disapointed

    Pros: The breakfast was fine, good selection every day
    Cons: No air-con, shuttle bus was very hit & miss, wasn't told before booking that car parking wasn't close to the room. All the buildings looked as if they needed a bit of TLC, the hand railings in front of our room was rotton and failing away and the handrail on the stairs was loose, carpets inside had seen better days. Telephone system wasn't working so had to use my mobile to request a shuttle, this could take up to 20 minutes to arrive. Only used the Cafe once as the hygiene didn't look the best in the food display unit, great location but needs a good overhaul.

  • Hotel review by Anne

    Anne

    Wonderful

    Overnight at the Quarantine Station

    Pros: This is a unique hotel that cannot be compared to typical accommodation. The setting is so interesting, and what the owners have done to preserve the essence of the site to make a viable hotel is remarkable. The rooms are clean, comfortable and have everything expected from a good hotel, whilst being housed in historic buildings. The heritage element has been carefully blended with what clients will expect for the price. It hasn't been made into an 'exclusive' destination, which might have been the case, given the location and amazing views over Sydney harbour. We visited for the history and were not disappointed. The shuttle buses were very useful for moving around the site, and getting in and out of Manly. It was good that there are no cars on site, and it was very peaceful, with attention to wildlife habitat. The breakfast was as expected, with plenty of food choice and attentive staff keeping things topped up. We didn't dine on site, but the menu advertised at the restaurant didn't seem prohibitive. We chose to stay overnight so that we could join the 'after-dark history tour' which finished near to midnight, and do the 11am tour the following morning. The two tours didn't over-lap too much in content. The staff in the visitor centre were much more tuned in to the historical significance of the site than those on the hotel reception desk.
    Cons: We felt that information beforehand, from the website, was a little vague and we had lots of questions mulling around on arrival. For example, the distinction between the 'wharf precinct' on site and Manly wharf where the ferry arrives wasn't clear until after we had been given a stylised map of the site. Signage to some places on the site was needed. The night-time tour seems to be having a bit of an identity issue. Comments online were calling it a 'ghost tour' that wasn't terribly well-received by clients expecting to have actors leaping out at them. It was billed as a new 'after-dark history tour' when we booked and we thought this had removed the gimmicky aspect, which it did. It was still referred to as a ghost tour on signage on site. We really didn't know what to expect, and the information about it could be much clearer. In the event, it was saved by the tour-guide's knowledge, and his meshing of historical events with the supernatural. It was actually more about looking for ghosts around the site and considering the possibilities. Moving around the old buildings in the dark was certainly a unique experience.

    Disappointing

    Nice views, but bit of...

    Pros: We liked the location and that it had a private beach on the property. The view was also really nice, although our room didn't have the promised view.
    Cons: We weren't aware that we could not drive on the property and had to use a shuttle bus to get around. Also the room was very small, and could have been more modern whilst still keeping the authentic vibe. It promised harbor views and didn't quite have those. Value for money I thought it was very expensive for what you get. Also the service wasn't great. We were stopped on the property by staff to ask what we were doing and he was quite rude in telling us that we could not use our car (even though that was explained to us beforehand during check in).
