Experts' Choice Award Elysium Manly
What the experts agree on
Beachfront Manly location with stunning ocean views and solid wellness amenities (pool, spa, gym), though the dated corporate design feels more business-hotel than boutique beach escape.
“A heated outdoor pool, a rooftop fitness centre, sauna and spa ensure that guests get plenty of opportunities to burn off any of the calories they might have gained at the hotel’s restaurant.”
