The Brighton Hotel Sydney - Mgallery Collection | Book like an insider

What guests think

Travellers describe The Brighton Hotel Sydney - Mgallery Collection as a beachside stay with pools, spa and gym, friendly service, comfortable spacious rooms with balconies and views, and a well liked breakfast, with easy access to restaurants and the airport.

Multiple reviews note ongoing renovations and occasional noise from pool music, nearby traffic or thin walls, plus some housekeeping lapses and expensive or limited aspects like parking and certain restaurant items. Policies restricting children from the indoor pool or spa frustrated some families, and a few guests mentioned slow elevators or billing miscommunications. Overall, expect a resort-style stay by the beach with modern amenities, but check room placement and policies if you are sensitive to noise or traveling with kids.

Over all we were happy with our stay. The staff and hotel it's self were great and I love the art deco feel of the lobby. Some things I didn't like was the music coming from the street playing till late. The pool area was extremely crowded, when we went to the pool there was at least 20 children in the hot tub, jumping to and from the pool. There was a section by the bar, which was signed "No children passed this point" however when I walked through it there was at least 9 children there. The hotel also makes it clear that it is a non smoking hotel however there was a number of people smoking around the bar area.

Property is beautiful. Pool outside was colllddddd! (We visited in August-winter) hot tub spa made up for it. On site parking expensive. Surrounding area has some good cuisine variety. Laundromat nearby if you don’t want laundry service. Area looks like it’s recovering from a storm, lots of construction. Beautiful views of the water. Wish we could stay longer.

Bathroom and living area massive for a hotel, with a couple of pools and on site bars and dining which worked well considering the circumstances of my stay. Would never have considered seeing or even staying in this srea, but after this, would consider Brighton le Sands as a destination if playing golf, and if i did, would definitely stay here

Good location. Hotel is mostly renovated with lovely pool areas. Bed was excellent. Only negative was front pool area played music until 10pm on a Sunday night which we could hear from our room and although the bathroom was spacious and new the shower cubicle was peculiar shape and too small making it difficult to enjoy shower. Otherwise all was great. Greek restaurant onsite was fabulous and would highly recommend.

Complicated check in & out, staff made process hard and timely. Pool restrictions are overboard, kids not allowed in spa or indoor pool, indoor pool therefore not used much at all so why have it there, kids kept on being asked to leave spa very often which annoyed everyone who were paying good money to use the facilities. Breakfast was great with good variety, Ammos restaurant was expensive.

The family suite we got was fantastic. The balcony and the view were great. The swimming pools, gym and other facilities were well maintained. The only thing that could be better is the housekeeping to properly clean the rooms and balcony, also add coffee, tea and milk when you get the rooms refreshed. The provided the coffee when we called, but they could have made the stay much better without the call.

Due to the raging music that plays most of the day and half the night on the weekends, plus people around the pool area being loud also, is only disappointing due to the fact that the double glazed windows/door at the balcony is so poorly made, its like it has no acoustic damping at all and it was unreal, the amount of noise that rages into the room. I was 4 storey's above all the noise and it was the worst I've ever experienced. I don't mind people having a good time at all, but the hotel really really really needs to do something about this issue. Carpet in room also needs a good vacuuming with a rotay/turbo head. Loose fluff everywhere. Cleaners should also be made aware of trip hazards as they left a hose across the floor in hallway, plus a floor tool in the middle of the walkway separate to the hose. I could go on but that will do. I won't stay here ever again, nor will I suggest it to anyone.

It was ok. The room was dirty, stained carpet, moldy shower and the balcony was unusable due to bird droppings everywhere on the ground and furniture. Informed the manager at checkout and received two complimentary drinks at the restaurant. The room should have been discounted or comped. The pool, gym, staff and restaurant were nice.

Overall staying at the Novatel Brighton Beach was enjoyable. The staff - from reception through to cafe/bar to cleaners were excellent. Well trained and courteous. The bed was extremely comfortable and the bathroom clean and well designed. Having a balcony was a real plus. Especially if you like fresh air. However, the fan for the air conditioning in my room was a bit noisy for sleeping. So, I opened the door to the balcony. I stayed during winter. Would be a fabulous hotel - near the beach and many cafes - during summer.

It was our 25th wedding anniversary after staying there on out wedding night 25 years ago. The staff at the front counter said we had been upgraded to a spa suite which was very appreciated. After having our dinner and returning to our room we had a ice bucket with a bottle of champagne and two glasses, chocolates and a handwritten card from the staff and management team. This was a gift and was a huge surprise. It made our stay and our night perfect.

Pros: Anne at reception really made a difference when checking in. The staff at the sands bar during breakfast were really attentive. The newly renovated bar & pool have great aesthetics. There are many dining options around the hotel. The view of the sunrise was amazing from the room. Cons: The New Year policy during our stay was new & surprised me with the amount of the deposit being asked and they only advised me when i arrived. The fridge in the room smelt a little. When i had one less person stay in the room, they would not reduce the breakfast per head amount. Overall, if you’re looking for an aesthetic vibe, lots of food options around the hotel, facilities galore and friendly staff then this is a great option.
