The Quarantine Station dates back from the 1880's. Situated in a National Park, it's part museum, part hotel and conference centre. Because of the heritage-listed buildings, not all rooms have bathrooms but the private bathroom is next to your room. These are termed Heritage rooms and suites. Deluxe rooms have connected bathrooms. Most rooms have spacious verandahs with water views. There are numerous public lounges spread throughout the property, decorated out in furniture and fittings from the period.

| Less than a 10 minute bus ride from Manly Ferry Terminal (Sydney Ferries) |
 |
| If you don't want to take the ferry and the bus, a privately run ferry delivers visitors directly to Q Station's pier (adjoining the private beach). |
 |
| The sunset view from Room 27's verandah - probably the pick of the views. Ask for a room near Views Restaurant (used for breakfast). These 2 wings are the most central. |
  |
| Take the 135 Bus from Manly Ferry Terminal, ferries run every half hour. (Sydney CBD is only 30 minutes on the ferry) |
 |
| Q Station is divided into various precincts. A 24 hr shuttle bus is available but it is possible to walk around the grounds |
 |
| Walk to dinner at the Boiler House Restaurant - over 200 steps (once a funicular railway) |
 |
| The trip to Manly by ferry is spectacular, and a bargain to boot. |
