What a Gem !!!!

Wow! What a gem! Watson Boutique is a fantastic little hotel that sits right on the water in Watson Bay. Next to the dock where you can catch ferries that take you everywhere you need to be. Resturaunt & bar on site to make everything complete. Rooms are decorated very tastefully in a nautical theme which is perfect. Daily housekeeping was superb in making the little details covered. (loved the little cookies for tea time! yum yum!) The front desk staff all were very accomadating and Thank you Dan for reaching out to us the first night to make sure we had the details for the room key. (as we were late in arrival time). A wonderful breakfast bar each morning was included and the barristas provided excellent service in making sure we had our custom coffees always fresh & full. What a treat! Great job barristas! Thank you Thank you!

I have visited this place with my wife and two young daughters, for four days. We were impressed with everything, exceeding our expectations, despite it wasn’t 5 star hotel. Very good breakfast, good dining, amazing interior - maritime style. Suitable connection with Sydney centre by ferry, which is just behind corner. I would like to back again to Watson Bay Boutique Hotel. Highly recommended. :)

Everything just superb! And morning view down the harbour on a sparkling cloudless blue morning was glorious. The only slightly challenging bit was parking, which although free for hotel guests is limited.

The poverty was very nice. it was a special stay for a 21st birthday however we had alarms and had to evacuate the hotel at 12.30pm which interrupted our sleep and we could not get back to sleep after that. Sadly we were very tired in the morning.
