Fantastic Location: The hotel is situated in the heart of Manly, just a short ferry ride away from Sydney CBD. The beachside retreat offers a relaxed holiday vibe, perfect for unwinding and enjoying the coastal beauty.

Drafty Balcony: The balcony wasn't well-sealed, so it felt a bit noisy and drafty at night.

The room was very cozy, extremely comfy bed. Location: the hotel was short walk to the ferry terminal as well as Queenscliff beach, one of the best surf beaches in the area, as well as Ruby Lane cafe and many other delish eateries. I was happy to find Darna, it was relatively near the property and served nice food.

Stunning, wonderful location in Manly district not far from Cafe n Restaurants, and all shops and restaurants.

The double room I stayed in had a private bathroom and essential amenities like a microwave, kettle, and fridge. the location was convenient, not too far from a popular shopping street. - the staff was consistently friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

Our little family of four stayed in these apartments on a recent trip to Sydney, the pictures do it justice - what you get in real life is very different. Our apartment was extremely small, with no out door area, infested with cockroaches, poor quality carpentry work and definitely “done up” on a budget, we were in the ground floor apartment and the sewer pipes were extremely loud, when ever the upstairs occupancy used the bathroom we could hear loud and clear- just terrible. I was told the apartment was child friendly however there was no plastic Tupperware provided, I would advise people to look long and hard and maybe pay the extra couple hundred for a hotel. The cherry on top is the receptionist on the front desk is extremely abrupt and loves an argument. I will not be returning to the Manly Designer Apartments nor will I be recommending them to anyone.

Very comfortable bed and amazing bathroom

Tea/coffee making equipment in the room. A cozy seating area and a couch bed provided. Family atmosphere in the hotel. Friendly staff

The room was clean and had great amenities, the location was fantastic, with easy access to shops, the beach, and restaurants.

The property was amazing with stunning decor and furnishings that left me in awe. It was located in a quiet area, yet still close enough to reach both the beach and the bustling Manly's corso within a short 15-minute walk. The room itself was clean, comfortable, and had all the necessary amenities, including free Wi-Fi, a flat-screen TV. The outdoor dining area was fabulous for enjoying meals in the sunshine. it was an excellent budget option in an ideal location for exploring the area.

I keep coming back to this place because it's perfect for me. They even returned my forgotten hairbrush. Free Wi-Fi, outdoor dining, flat-screen TV, and an electric kettle make it feel like home. See you for Easter!

We loved the eclectic and funky style of the rooms at this hotel. The staff gave us a warm and welcoming reception, with a box of chocolates waiting in our room. The location was fantastic, with shops, cafes, and the beach all within a short walking distance. we had a great experience thanks to the staff's hospitality and the hotel's amenities.

Nothing, everything was great! We enjoyed our stay and had no issues whatsoever.

Located just a few minutes away from the beach, this cozy studio is perfect for a relaxing staycation. The interior decor and comfy bed make it feel like a home away from home. Some rooms even have an open window and door that leads to a little verandah, which is a rare find in bigger apartment blocks. In addition, the reception staff is known for their excellent service and the free wine and sparkling water are nice touches.

The air conditioning unit can be difficult to master sometimes.

The apartment was a short walk from the beach and shops, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. Having kitchen facilities in the room was convenient. the area was quiet, and the reception staff were very helpful. We liked the location, as it was away from the hustle but still within walking distance of the wharf and the beach.

Felt really welcomed, nothing to complain about.

The free chocolates and welcoming smiles at arrival were nice touches. the location of the hotel was great, only a short walk to the beach and close to some delicious cafes. the room was quite funky and had some interesting designs.

The bed was extremely uncomfortable, which led to a terrible night's sleep. the mattress desperately needs to be replaced.

The staff at the hotel were extremely helpful and friendly. They allowed us to check in early and check out late at no extra charge, which was very convenient. The room was filled with lovely decor and was comfortable to stay in. the location of the hotel was great as it was close to the beach and other key attractions in the area.

We experienced some noise during the night and early morning which made it difficult to sleep. There seemed to be a lot of construction and furniture removal happening nearby, which was quite loud.

We had a great stay at Manly Designer Studios! The location was perfect, just steps away from the beach. The studio itself was well-equipped, with a kitchenette that had everything we needed. The bed was comfy and we had a good night's sleep. I would highly recommend this hotel.
