I would recommend to everyone don't go there . For the Price of the room $ 352 and another cost for  parking of $ 100 for the night across the road  , Also I asked to eat at 7 pm when booking however it took us a lot longer to get to the Hotel because of traffic I asked to eat at 7.30 so we could have a shower  before dinner and I was told they only had 2 bookings so I would have to eat at 7 pm and I should hurry up . The food was very poor I give it a 2 and a light breakfast was included however in the morning I was told the breakfast was not happening and we will have to go to another location for breakfast .  I give the experience a big 0 .

Very Bad

Stayed for three nights in Room 6 - beautifully furnished, views of the water and a comfortable bed. Rooms are small (bit hard with two big suitcases)  but nicely appointed. Had breakfast in the lovely communal guest dining area and veranda. Ate in the restaurant downstairs on two nights - really enjoyed the food, the staff were friendly and attentive and the prawn cocktail was very good. Lots to do in an amazing part of Sydney - the walk to the lighthouse was a good start to each day and there is so much to explore by car or ferry -  loved our stay! 

A lovely relaxing break

My husband and I had lunch with a group of friends at Barrenjoey House recently and we were so disappointed. We had a wonderful experience three years ago but unfortunately, this experience was not what we remembered. First, let me say the staff were attentive and sincerely wanted to make our experience enjoyable. However, the food really let this restaurant down. We both ordered the lobster risotto because it sounded so lovely on the menu. Unfortunately, it was so salty as well as being pureed or cooked down to the consistency of baby food that it was unedible. Our waiter offered us a dessert on the house. We ordered the Eton mess which appeared at the table looking like a complete mess but with the addition of a hair! Although they did take our meals off the bill our experience was truly tarnished.

Dining at Barrenjoey House

Unfortunately, we were in the smallest room at Barrenjoey House and, if staying again, would book another room.  In saying this, it's a wonderful establishment with lovely rooms, very friendly and helpful staff and such a beautiful environment for the guests with a guest's lounge and guest's terrace which we used often.  We wouldn't hesitate to stay at Barrenjoey House again but, next time, a different room choice.

Beautiful Barrenjoey House

A warm hospitable welcome greeted us for our four night stay in room 6. 
The staff - all excellent and friendly throughout. 
The venue - harmonious decor, cosy comforts, marvellously memorable flavours, awesome optics and upticks.
Overall - it’s the contrasts that make you appreciate the contrasts - the Barrenjoey House team delivered us an experience that was: a focussed, cohesive, seamless synergy of synchronistic superior service symmetry.

A brilliantly Earthy Hospitality Pearl

Nice spot for an overnight stay. The room and bathroom are big enough with everything you'd need, including a good tv and mini bar. As the rooms are above the restaurant, there is a bit of noise at night when they're packing up the outdoor chairs but it doesn't last long. Staff are friendly and helpful, there's extra touches including free fruit and an area to eat upstairs for guests. The food for dinner is delicious!

Good spot for an overnight stay

We stayed 2 nights in room 1 which is small but beautifully decorated, spotless and all the furnishings and extras are high quality. We were with friends and thoroughly enjoyed the lounge and veranda for social time together over coffee and wine. We also ate lunch on the veranda. 
The staff are extraordinary- nothing is too much trouble. 
Will return again as we loved the place and the people. 
It’s an easy walk up the hill and over to the surf beach. Lots to explore close by.

Divine

Food was average.Beware of the "Petit Four" trick.....no Petit Fours but four tiny
square lollies on a plate .....price $18. Thought the lollies were a treat...but not the case....they were supposed to be the desert.
The "Fig" dish was a heap of sliced meat with a few figs cut up + some cheese...to be avoided.
Only redeeming feature was the service.

Disappointing

We stayed for 2 nights in room 6 and, although the room was small, it was beautifully furnished and extremely comfortable. Everything in the room was top quality and it was immaculately clean. All the staff were very friendly and efficient. We stayed there to have a celebratory lunch for my husbands 70th birthday so friends stayed one night too. The guest lounge and courtyard were so lovely and a great place for us all to meet and chat. The group lunch we had in the restaurant was perfect. A very special place to stay.

Elegant and relaxing stay

Dining is great, staff are fantastic, location very handy with short easy walk to ocean beach although rooms and bathrooms are tiny. Make your room choice carefully - Room 4 has no guests clumping past on wooden floors but Room 1 has every guest clump past. Rood noise at night is very low and during the day you are out and about. We would happily return but not to room 1.
