Rydges Cronulla Beachside
Location, location, location. Ideal for views, walks, eateries, observing passing parade. For us it was the memories about growing up near the beach. Room was spacious but a little tired but given the salty environment that's understandable Bought the parking and glad I did so, no street parking ...

Hotel TOTTO Wollongong
If your looking for a 1 nite pass thru stay then this hotel meets those needs very well but not for a weekend stay as rooms are very very basic no wardrobe you hang your clothes on the wall. It was very clean staff were nice
