Right on Manly’s ocean beachfront, this midrise has a dated corporate vibe but one of Sydney's best locations, a million miles from the city’s business hustle. Check the surf from ocean-front balconies, or hit the rooftop pool if you don’t want sand in your laptop. The rooms without an ocean view are disappointing by comparison – splash out on the upgrade.
