The Central Coast stop is a popular getaway for a wider weekend away up and down this golden part of Sydney, but it still feels like a remote town. The 28th-floor space captures plenty of natural light, offering a showstopping vista across the Central Coast. As mentioned, you’re only a short drive from the three major beaches that surround Gosford, plus you can get to the hotel straight from the Central Coast Highway. There’s parking around the corner, the train station is about a 10-minute walk that’s slightly uphill, and you’re an easy walk from Polytec Stadium, which is the major sports and entertainment venue on the Central Coast. voco GosfordAddress: 108 Donnison St, Gosford NSW 2250Contact: (02) 4327 0700Rates: From around $239 a nightThe writer stayed one night as a guest of voco Gosford.
