NOVOTEL SYDNEY MANLY PACIFIC ANGELA SAURINE and her moon-loving toddler check out the new Galaxy Room Upgrade package at this beachside hotel THE LOWDOWN
Located opposite Manly Beach, with views of its golden sands and towering Norfolk Pines, this hotel makes a great base to explore the famous Sydney suburb. Many rooms have balconies with views over the ocean, so you can fall asleep to the sound of waves crashing against the shore, while its rooftop pool is a highlight. You can also rest assured that Novotel is a family-friendly hotel chain, offering free accommodation and breakfast for children under 16 when staying with two paying adults, and 50 per cent off a second room. Its new Galaxy Room Upgrade is a great addition, with an in-room light projector displaying the moon and stars on the roof and a telescope a hit with littlies.
LOCATION
If you love the ocean, it’s hard to beat the hotel’s location on North Steyne on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, just a minute’s walk from the landmark Hotel Steyne at the end of the Corso, with its many shops, restaurants and cafes. It’s around five minutes’ walk to Manly Wharf. If you are in a hurry you can take the fast ferry to the city, which takes 18 minutes, but if you have time it’s more fun to ride the iconic Manly Ferry, which takes around 30 minutes. 112
