Ravesi's Hotel
Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia
7Telegraph expert rating
Ravesi's is situated on Campbell Parade, the main strip of Bondi Beach, and is as close to the sand as it could possibly get. It’s one of the best spots in the suburb, occupying the prized corner of Hall Street and Campbell Parade in the epicentre of the locale’s dining and shopping district and footsteps to the surf. Paying homage to the Art Deco heritage of the building, the famous arched windows have been painted flamingo pink, as has the interior of the wrap around terrace. Bold artwork by local artist Daimon Downey, parquetry floors and oversized potted plants compliment the open, breezy feel. Then there’s the view of the beach, which is what Ravesi’s has always been famous for. Read expert review From £104per night

Bondi 38 Serviced Apartments
Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia
7Telegraph expert rating
A hotel with a view of the beach is surprisingly difficult to find in Bondi. These serviced apartments are among the best-placed properties on Bondi Beach's main drag, and are ultra modern and stylish. It's coastal chic with not a seashell in sight. Bondi-inspired artworks adorn the walls, the furniture is contemporary and luxe and many of the floor-to-ceiling windows reveal expansive beach views. The beach is directly across the road, although the hotel's position is slightly removed from where all the action – and the noise – happens. Room service comes from Bondi Trattoria, one of the area's most long-standing restaurants. Read expert review From £141per night Check availability Rates provided by Booking.com
