Location is great. Restaurant is meh. Service is ok depending on who is helping you. We like Van(?). The bathroom is small and the sink is the smallest I've ever used. Parking is like going through a James Bond movie - you need to enter 4 passcode protected entry points to park your car and come up to the lobby! There was a kitchenette in room 208 and shared balcony access which were nice. But I'll say that this is the dustiest hotel I've EVER BEEN in! The lamps, nightstands, and curtains are DUSTY! Gross. read more

Great location! This hotel is located in the heart of Bondi Beach, and one of the few hotels with an ocean view. The rooms are quite small, but that is just most accommodation in Sydney. It's a big expensive city. We came in the off season, September, so we got a great deal on the room. Our room was cute and clean and bed was comfy. The room is attached to a shared porch area. Still nice to sit out there on the chairs, relax, and have some drinks. The hotel also has a restaurant attached. The restaurant has specials throughout on the week on food. They also have a happy hour which isn't too bad. Beer and Wine only. Food is pretty good. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Parking is a pain in the area, not sure if the hotel validates parking nearby in one of the garages. I didn't have a car when I stayed. read more

This was the worst hotel stay. My original room they had blood on the sheet, hole in wall. Door had a 1 inch opening at the bottom to the outside and air didn't work. They moved me into another room after refusing to refund my stay so I could leave. I heard a beeping and barking a sound from the middle balcony all night. I tried to call but no one was at the desk. I left at 6:00am and they still had no one at the desk. read more

After a chill afternoon at Bondi beach with my cousins, at around 430PM, we decided to go to a Happy Hour. I didn't realize how near Hotel Bondi was from the beach! The Pub/Bar is huge and was full of people by the time we arrived. Also, with the number of people who were there, it was surprisingly quiet. I guess everyone was just a relaxed as we were. There was a promo on the Tooheys. So, we all ordered that plus some munchies. We ended up staying til around 7PM. Ended up doing 3 rounds too. This hotel would be perfect for a beach holiday! The views from the rooms look directly at the beach. Can you imagine having a beer by the balcony with a sea view? Awesome! :) read more

I noticed there are new management to bistro food at Bondi hotel. Food is now more variations, and presentation is now taken to next level, look clean and fresh. Lunch was $15, which consider ok since you also paying a good view from this hotel on alfresco site. Protein choice are included crispy pork belly, rib eye in the bone and top sirloin, for you that having a healthier choice, crispy skin Damon looks amazing as well. I noticed beer battered barramundi fish and chips are flying from the pass window, maybe next time I should try that. They do also cater for vegetarian, Beetroot and quinoa salad Looks amazing, and also they have ricotta and roast pumpkin lasagna ... My new favorite place for good meal around Bondi read more

Okay, it's a pretty nice pub in a great location (not that I'm a huge fan of Bondi Beach, but I'll put that aside for a bit), however that is where the problem lies - everybody seems to want to be a part of this place, which means that on those really nice days when half of Sydney all flock down to Bondi Beach to do whatever one does at Bondi Beach, this place gets packed. When I came down here the last time I was in Sydney the plan was to have lunch here, however when I discovered that there was going to be a forty-five minute wait, that idea went onto the scrapheap. It does have a nice beer garden out the front, and the staff are pretty cool, however the crowds on those hot days makes this place very difficult to find a place to sit. read more

Walking by, we got sucked in by the Happy Hour sign. Too bad it as only for Monday -Thursday...and it was Sunday. Regardless, they had drink specials. My brother ordered himself a mini pitcher of light beer, which he was sure was watered down. I was smart and ordered a glass of red wine. The following day we came back and got the happy hour. For me; spring rolls and another glass of wine. For my brother, the same mini pitcher of beer and a shot of vodka (ick!). I have a sneaking suspicion the cook made me my dish special because it wasn't on the menu and took more than a few minutes. Not that I minded. We had nothing buy time on our hands and were enjoying taking the whole scene in. While the drinks we ordered may not have been note-worthy, it really is the best place on the beach to people watch. It's also the loveliest. The prices weren't bad, considering, and the service was very good. I am all about atmosphere, so my high rating goes to the overall look and feel of the outdoor bar area in which we spent 2 afternoons. read more

Hotel Bondi is a landmark in Bondi Beach, and that makes it both good and bad. Every time I have been here during the day it's been a great relaxed experience, just chilling with a few mates over a couple of beers. The atmosphere is standard Aussie pub, i.e. a haven for tourists, and backpackers, who don't seem to get too rowdy during the day. During the night, it changes personality completely. Due to the fact that they're the only large venue open after midnight in Bondi Beach, the masses of tourists flock to this place. To the outdoor seating, the pokies, the pool hall, the lounges, the restaurant and bar food open late, the huge screens showing every flavour of sport imaginable - All attracted the mostly European tourists. Unfortunately, the bouncers love the crowds too, but even more than that, they love their power in controlling the crowds. This is a strict place (and it should be) infamous for literally picking people up and throwing them out, as much as they're notorious for picking fights, holding grudges, and not allowing themselves to be convinced by logical arguments on the soberness of patrons. Food wise, it's a pretty basic staple of pub food, nothing special, a definitely not a menu which is exciting and relevant to the location. This is solely a place for big groups, who are about to go somewhere better, as their friends can't get in past midnight. read more

Friendly front desk staff, great location and spacious rooms! This place is a 10 for location! The community balconies are very convenient, if our door worked to be able to get to it... a quick walk down the hall provided access. read more

most importantly, this hotel went over and above to return my Ipad, they put time, effort, and cost into doing this. My ipad arrived in the states maybe a month later and that was due to their efforts. Returned in great condition and they did not charge me after giving my credit card number....awesome service and staff...hope to visit bondi beach again if i do basket of appreciate would be given!! Recommend to stay and feel safe! it was just my daughter and i traveling, very helpful read more

Average food with generous serves that comes out pretty quick from the kitchen. Well below average service from disinterested staff that obviously would rather be somewhere else. Cold beers though. Pity it was Monday and a lot of better restaurants were closed. read more

It's garbage. Only still up and running because of the location but service, food and drinks are awful. Don't waste your time so many better places in bondi! read more

Had a nice meal and some drinks with friends on a Saturday afternoon. The salt and pepper calimari was delicious. The view is nice from the patio seating, but I'm sure that's true of anywhere around here. read more

Brought my family of four here after 5 hour drive down from Port Macquarie. My daughters were hungry and the pub did not disappoint. The $15 specials were dead on. Good assortment of beer and staff were very accomplished. read more

Stick to the steak or chicken schnitzel. Its a bit overpriced but usually decent. The fish and chips and salt and pepper squid are not worth the price and I'd imagine a lot of the other dishes to be the same. It would be 3 stars but its overpriced for standard pub food. read more

The hotel itself may be nice, but we were here to celebrate a night out. The staff (managers and bouncers) could not be less welcoming and less accepting. The level of sexism in this club was disgusting. If you are a supporter of equal rights, this is not the place to be, as they eagerly support male dominance. My friends and I did not feel comfortable or safe here. read more

Hotel common areas & outdoor space was nice HOWEVER; the rooms on the interior (without an ocean view) are a bit dingy. The rooms were small which is expected for the location, but the bathroom floor could use a good scrubbing and the sheets were basically burlap. read more

We ordered a pitcher of beer and the beer came flat. When we complained the waiter took the beer and refused to get us another one. He also said we're not getting anything ells tonight and also didn't give us our money back. In a nut shell - terrible. read more
