This is a quirky experience. Heritage style buildings, basic accommodation overall but the bits that count are good - the bed and the shower. Simple, away from it all, different. If you want luxe, this isn't it. But it's wholesome and relaxing. Amazing harbour views. It's like being in Tassie...but on Sydney Harbour. You'll know what I mean. Recommended.

Great spot, clean, awesome views.

Fantastic location but the accommodation is basic (as you would expect). We were there during heatwave conditions and none of the rooms have air conditioning and because of there construction/age, have next to no insulation. Strongly suggest you avoid staying there if it’s going to be hot. The rooms were clean and tidy. We enjoyed an amazing meal at the Boiler House restaurant.

We had an amazing two nights such an interesting place to stay. Super friendly staff great breakfast. Enjoyed the cafe down by the harbour, forgot our swimmers so missed a dip. Lots of history. Overall a very enjoyable stay very peaceful.

Staying at this place is an historic experience of the old Quarantine Station, truly unique in Sydney. Be sure to make time to explore the national park, go on a tour and have dinner at their restaurant, all worth the effort. Rooms are comfortable, clean and tidy but not climate controlled, which hints a tiny bit at how life might have been for the historic patrons. Service is friendly. The area is spread out so everything is an outdoor walk in the weather, or by shuttle bus which you can summon usually within about 10 minutes. Getting back to Manly or the city takes two steps - the park’s shuttle bus (or a walk) and then transport to Manly. I would recommend Q Station as an essential part of the Sydney historic experience.

Poor service and stuffy room with no air conditioning. No mosquito screens so windows could not be left open for a breeze. The ceiling fan made a terrible noise and the shower was prehistoric. Very poor value for money. The only plus was the location for it’s quiet country feel.

Unique spot and very peaceful as hoped except for the last night when found myself in a room 20 feet from a full blown wedding reception. Given the nature of the hotel - in the middle of a national park surrounded by nature - this was very unexpected and very unwelcome.

Fascinating location. The old Quarantine Station has an interesting history. The hotel's location is spectacular above Quarantine Bay, which is lovely to swim in. There are more than 250 steps from the accommodation to the beach, so it helps to be a little fit. Certainly the walk up is a good workout. Ostensibly there is a shuttle service to and from the reception area and to the beach. This was hit and miss. Sometimes they came when called. Other times they didn't. So again, being fit (or super patient) is helpful. The rooms are quaint, quiet. There's only one power outlet which can be limiting. Bathroom and toilets are located in a separate, nearby block. Not super clean, and a bit smelly, but adequate. Food etc has to be brought in, or you can use the exclusive restaurant, which was booked out before I arrived, so couldn't comment on that. If you have time and are healthy and prepared, it is an interesting destination.
