The rooms are super quirky in that they are very basic / heritage buildings and that is great (beds are good) but the carpets could do with being changed , they are old and they smell, there are no drawers to put stuff in which I am perplexed about as rooms have the space for them. Kettle and fridges / etc are shabby and a bit grim - need an upgrade. Staff are nice. Location is just showstopping, we love it and will continue to come back for it.

A lot of mod cons have been introduced in the past 150 years, but unfortunately many are yet to reach Q Station. Unless you are after an authentically rustic experience, I wouldn’t recommend it. At least not in summer. After several warm days in Sydney, my basic but clean room became a hot box in which it was barely possible to sleep, let alone spend any time in. There was no way to cool it down. With no air con and no windows the only options were a barely-working overhead fan and leaving the door wide open. I asked at reception to move to a cooler room but they were fully booked. They did bring me a pedestal fan, but due to the position of the only power point it wasn’t much use either. Most guests seemed to be in the same boat. Walking along the verandahs you’d see people lying half dressed on top of their beds, with doors wide open trying to get air in. It was strange experience to have at an Accor property in 2026. The staff explained that due to the heritage listing, there’s no way to install air con. But there is more they could do. Just for starters a properly working overhead fan. Surely they could also supply portable air con units during heatwaves or look at ways people could air their rooms safely without having to leave them wide open to mozzies, wildlife and opportunistic thieves. This hotel would not be safe for elderly people during a heatwave. While I’m sure the conditions are an improvement on 1832, there’s still a way to go Accor.

What a fascinating place. Staying in the Isolation Precinct felt like walking into a documentary. We arrived just on dusk, which made the atmosphere even more striking. Great views, strong sense of history, and plenty of character throughout the site. It’s not a luxury resort, and it doesn’t try to be—that’s part of the appeal. Signage could be clearer in places, and there is a fair amount of walking involved, but the setting and historical significance more than make up for it. A great base to explore North Head and Manly. Thoroughly recommend taking as many tours as possible; they really bring the history of Q Station to life. The food at Boiler house was a great addition

Absolutely lovely little hidden gem in Sydney. Right in heart of the harbour with gorgeous heritage buildings and spectacular views. The rooms are still try to the heritage but comfortable with everything you could need, fan, heater, fridge, tea and coffee. Lots of wild life on site too! Had a great stay and walking tour. Will definitely stay again

What a great place for a weekend stay. We stayed in a cottage that sleeps 6. Stepping back in time, well appointed and positioned to explore this beautiful place. History. Water. Ghosts. Food. Great shuttle service and time to explore or relax. Highly recommend.
