Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed at my fair share of Bondi places, and honestly? This apartment on Campbell Parade hits that sweet spot between location and actually being livable. You’re literally across the street from the beach – I mean, you can hear the waves from the living room, which is either amazing or slightly annoying depending on how much you love that constant ocean soundtrack (I’m in the amazing camp, personally).

The thing about 164 Campbell Parade is you’re right in the thick of it without being stuck above one of those tourist trap cafes that blast music until 2am. You’ve got the Sunday markets practically at your doorstep, and honestly, walking to Speedo’s Cafe for a proper flat white takes maybe two minutes if you’re moving slowly. The apartment itself feels like someone actually lives there – not that sterile hotel vibe where everything’s beige and bolted down. The kitchen’s got proper equipment, which matters if you’re planning to grab fresh stuff from the markets or just want to make decent coffee without trekking downstairs. Plus, the balcony situation is legit – you can actually sit out there with your morning coffee and watch the early surfers without feeling like you’re in a fishbowl.

What really sells it for me is the practical stuff nobody talks about. Parking’s included, which – trust me – is huge around here. During summer weekends, people circle those blocks like vultures looking for a spot. The building’s got that solid, older apartment feel without being run-down, and the neighbors seem to be a mix of locals and longer-term visitors, so it’s not party central every night. You’re a five-minute walk to the bus stop for getting into the city, and if you want to explore beyond Bondi, Bronte’s just down the coastal walk (though honestly, once you’re here, leaving feels unnecessary). The only minor thing – and this is really minor – is that the hot water takes a beat to get going in the morning, but that’s pretty standard for older Sydney buildings. Bottom line: if you want to actually experience Bondi like you live there for a week, instead of just visiting it, this place delivers. The 8.9 rating makes sense – it’s not trying to be fancy, it’s just genuinely good at what it does.
