"This hotel has a fascinating history and I love the feeling the old shared spaces evoke. We used the big rooms to play chess and read. Then the beach is on your doorstep. The restaurant and history tours are unmissable and even though the room is quite standard it is an unforgettably amazing venue and priced reasonably."

"• Pokój: czysta pościel i brudna podłoga. Kompaktowy pokój dwuosobowy z wygodnym łóżkiem. Mój pokój wychodził na skrzyżowanie i rano było dość głośno, a wieczorem słychać było rozmowy na ulicy, mimo że okno było zamknięte. • Wspólna łazienka: przeważnie brudna i nieprzyjemna, nie jestem pewien, czy liczba łazienek przypadająca na jednego gościa jest zbyt mała, czy też sprzątana zbyt rzadko dziennie. • Udogodnienia: są wspólne pomieszczenia do relaksu, które są przyjemne i wygodne, dostępny jest bezpłatny stół bilardowy i organizowane są imprezy prawie każdego dnia tygodnia. • Lokalizacja: 10 minut spacerem od plaży, 10 minut od głównego deptaka i supermarketu. Przed hostelem znajduje się siłownia, w której jednorazowa wejściówka kosztuje 20 dolarów australijskich. Moje doświadczenie: Podróżuję 320 dni w roku od 8 lat, zatrzymując się w hotelach różnego rodzaju, od hosteli po hotele 5-gwiazdkowe. Po prostu obiektywnie oceniam to, co widzę, bez oceniania."

"Great trip, in the heart of Manly. The location was the highlight."

"Lovely stay, couldn’t of asked for a more comfy and cosy room"

"Terrible experience. Dirty room. Rude staff. Smelly old furniture, poor air conditioning. Will never go back. Rude staff . Tiny rooms and you could barely put your luggage anywhere. Smell of urine , ewwwww it reeked of urine"

"This is the best hostel in manly. There are many activities and a great rooftop to relax on your days off. The staff are really nice and always have a laugh with me. This hostel have the best people, a free breakfast and I even get a balcony in my room!"

"I stayed at the Sandy Bottoms Beach Guesthouse for 2 nights a week for almost 12 months up until April 2024, whilst I was working in Manly (I live about 2 hours south). The bedroom(s) and bathrooms were always clean. There were always clean towels made available and more blankets and or fans if needed. I always felt safe and importantly Andrew the manager, who apart from being a true gentlemen, was always willing be to flexible to the needs of his guests - provided that they treated it as a "guest" house and acted accordingly. For a well priced guest house accommodation in Manly Beach NSW you can't go wrong with the Sandy Bottoms Guesthouse! Thanks Andrew for making my extended(!) stay at your guesthouse such a great experience."

"The moment I stepped into the room, I was overwhelmed by the view of the Pacific Ocean; it was so relaxing. Opening the balcony door allows me to enjoy a drink while listening to the ocean, while closing it lets me quietly watch TV. I'll definitely choose this place again next time!"

"I love this hotel so much. It's perfect for a solo trip. The room is clean and comfortable, and the location is great. I'm very satisfied and it exceeded my expectations. I will recommend it to my friends."
