Beach Road Hotel

We just went for lunch. Really well laid out and big pub with Lots of great spaces for different cohorts but UFC was blasting so loud over the entire venue it was hard to hear one another talk even in the beer garden or order at the bar without yelling. I guess they have a niche audience but it wasnt welcoming for anyone else.

4 years of Australia and I’ve never seen this: closing time is 1 AM, they are selling pints around 12:15; 3 minutes later, they light up the place and start to kick you out. No last drink calls, no warnings. And because you are drunk, you can’t argue, because you’ll be seen as a troublemaker. Some good blokes protested - rightfully - since they all had full glasses at that time. The staff didn’t hesitate to call the police for that, despite them not being violent.

Very rude staff and manager. Inconsiderate about outrageous volume of music and very judgmental. Was very rude to my friend and I when we simply wanted to sit and do work inside during the day instead of drinking/partying (even though they have maximum 2-3 customers before 4pm). Felt very unwelcome and judged by their staff, especially as young University students who are not from Sydney. Would not recommend if you want to feel included and welcomed. Do better!

This hotel is perfectly located in bondi. The bar below the hotel is fun and has a nice vibe. The bar turns into a pretty rowdy scene on weekends and becomes very loud. We were able to sleep through it, but I can see how others can’t. The room was cute and clean.

Just rocked up to this place after our dinner at kiln, was waiting for friends in the bathroom, my other friend was standing at the entrance waiting for our friends, security called us all the way to the other room and didn’t say anything but got another guy to question if we had thrown up. Doesn’t make sense because we were all visibly present and basically sober. I understand protocol as someone who’s owned hospitality businesses but didn’t seem right as others were visibly drunk and we were chill. It doesn’t help that me and my friends are people of colour because definitely didn’t make us feel welcomed at all. DONT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE
