Beautiful location.
Stunning natural environment and I accept its heritage so minimal changes can be made but the rooms are so drab. It feels like you're in a quarantine theme park. Staff are lovely but you really don't want to spend time in the rooms.

Comfortable stay - Excellent restaurant
Paid for harbour view room, which has a shared deck looking west across the harbour. Location and view are beautiful in good weather. Sunset view is amazing. Lovely romantic setting. Room was basic set in historic building - the interior walls are corrugated tin painted, joins and gaps around external doors caused cold draughts for the wall heater to cope with in Winter. The bed was comfortable but the room needs a freshen up. Old smells covered up with room freshner. En-suite also needs a reno - loose vanity tap, rusty vanity frame, chips in the bath.. If you’re ok with those minor flaws and happy to pay $$$ - it’s a comfortable stay. Coffee/tea also very basic. BYO tissues, and milk if you want more than a thimble in your tea/Nescafe 43 bean coffee. Not 4 star. Not worthy of a photo. Contrasting, the Boiler House Restaurant interior ambiance, food and service for dinner was excellent. The outdoor area for lunch also looking a bit tired and needs a freshen up to improve resort/retreat feel, which is what you splash out on. Happy to pay the higher room rate for more luxury than what is currently being offered.

We liked the sense of history at this location. The buildings by the wharf and the old hospital displayed interesting information about the old quarantine station. The Boiler House restaurant was very good. The serves were generous. However, the buffet breakfast was rather substandard and not good value.

Average
It was a night out to celebrate our Wedding anniversary and after I booked I did make sure that the staff knew about it by calling and an email. They did say they will make it unforgettable. Also we had the rain forecast for the whole Saturday and all morning Sunday. I could cancel my booking because of that but I did think that doesn’t matter the weather we will have a great time, because they will make us feel very special. For my surprise when I got there no one mentioned nothing about that. I did mentioned the reception at the checkin time, and he gave us a wine bottle, but just after I mentioned. It was the only thing we could get to remember our Anniversary. According to them we could not have a room upgrade because we were in 4, (2 adults and 2 toddlers). We did not have nothing special at the dinner at the restaurant too. The room had a leak under the sink, also the bedside lamp in the kids bedroom was not working. The breakfast was included in the price, and it was very average. Doesn’t have a barista to make your coffee, only an old coffee machine. The staff did not have a smile in their face, seriously, I just think did not worth the price I paid. I wish my memory about this place could be different. The history side of things was very interesting but unfortunately we will not head back.

Very rustic, character filled. Beautiful location. Not glamorous or slick, by Sydney CBD standards, but very special and a bit quirky.

This is a quirky experience. Heritage style buildings, basic accommodation overall but the bits that count are good - the bed and the shower. Simple, away from it all, different. If you want luxe, this isn't it. But it's wholesome and relaxing. Amazing harbour views. It's like being in Tassie...but on Sydney Harbour. You'll know what I mean. Recommended.

Walk back into history. Good size bedroom with a comfy mattress, the toilet block outside was very clean and had everything we needed. The only negative is that the shuttle bus can take quite a bit of time sometimes as it picks up people around the premises but not an issue unless you are in a rush. Lovely staff.

This visit made me really sad. We spent 3 nights on holiday and have been many time before. This time was terrible. It feels like the property is at the end of a contract and being run into the ground. The bathroom was filthy, with a hairdryer from the 1990s and so many spiders, bugs, webs. The back of the door was a greasy grimy mess. They should replace the broken vanity so there is somewhere to put your toothbrush at least. As an ex-Scout leader and have used cleaner scout camping bathrooms. The cleaners drive around in noisy clapped out old bangers - I thought they were just underpaid until I noticed Q Station on the side. The cleaners didn't clean our cups or replenish the tea/coffee. They should provide a face towel, water glass and tissues in the room (unless the target market is backpackers?). Slippers and a robe would be nice (I know this is usually a treat reserved for 4 or 5 star venues, but would be nice for people whose bathrooms are external). The toiletries are not as good as they used to be either. The rooms are not air conditioned or soundproof, which is fine considering it is a heritage property but we had really noisy people sat outside our room talking until after midnight - I suppose just enjoying themselves, but it was pretty annoying when trying to sleep. There were other things I could say, but...I suppose I should say something nice now. The views and location are beautiful and I really hope that my review helps to promote reinvestment in this place.
