Offering free Wi-Fi, Cremorne Point Manor is located in the lower North Shore of Sydney. It offers air-conditioned rooms with a flat-screen TV and a refrigerator. Some rooms offer a spa bath or a hot tub.

Nice quiet location, and only a 2 minute walk to the 8 minute ferry ride to the Circular Quay (next to Sydney Opera House) where you can switch over to other ferries, buses, trains etc. Even though we had to pay extra for Continental Breakfast, it was worth it. Nearby was a nice walking trail and Cremorne Reserve. Great property if you want to enjoy big city, but not stay in a noisy area.

    Eric's property was superbly maintained, clean and all amenities as promised. Great location, with Westfield mall right opposite and train station and bus stops in a few minutes walk. Highly recommend for a stay in Sydney, a beautiful view from the 16th floor and very spacious interior. Also Eric was very responsive and a great host. Thanks Eric.

    I was impressed that the hostel seemed clean - with staff cleaning daily, and also AC worked marvellously in my room. Easy check in. Good quiet hostel if you're looking for a cheap stay in a great location.

    Great location, the room was very quiet, and the place had a really nice vibe in general - a real mix of ages and different types of travellers. We were looking for a cheap, quiet place to stay as a family (two kids aged 10 and 12) and this worked really well, given that we were out and about most days. The place was very relaxed and didn't have a 'loud party hostel' vibe which was perfect for us!
