Congwong Beach

Despite being right in the middle of the city it was quiet and nice. Also for a small room it was still spacious and well equipped

Quiet and convenient.

I arrived early and asked if I could leave my bags while I went and explored. They agreed and even offered to upgrade me for aud$100, I declined as there was no need but the offer was appreciated. My room was lovely, a little noisy at night due to it being next to the bars but nothing unbearable. Room was clean and was a nice bit of luxury. Breakfast was a là carté, not the most amazing but when I asked if I could replace a few items as I am vegetarian - they did happily. They have a gym and swimming pool which I knew about but didn't mention when I checked in. The gym is small with 2 running machines, 1 glider, a bench to do weights, multiple weights, ball and unfortunately a broken bike. They have the eco-friendly offer of where you decline having your room cleaned, they give you $10 credit per day but it seems you're only allowed to use it in their bar only I had an early flight and wasn't going to make breakfast (7am to 10.30am) and asked if it was possible to pre-order. They offered a breakfast box and asked what time I would like it. I mentioned 5.30am, double checked again in the afternoon but another person was on reception and they said they couldn't see any note requesting this. So he added a note and when I checked out, another person was on reception and she double checked with the kitchen where they seemed to be unaware and started preparing the box. The box turned out to be a bag with a granola cup with berries and yogurt. Great location and nearby food opts
