Hotel 3 Bintang di Byron Bay, New South Wales

Stayed here for a few nights with two friends and it was fine, average. Mentioned in the title nothing glamorous, but did the job. Check in was simple and easy, however we had to pay for onsite parking. At the price for accommodation, we were expecting it to be included. No wonder no cars were parked downthere. Room was ok, two bunks and a double bed upstairs. Beds not very comfortable to be honest, and had a dip in the middle. The mattress could do to be replaced or turned over. The room smelled awful and could have done with a good airing and deepclean. The shared bathrooms were average and served their purpose. Had to end up renting bath towels (yes renting), we weren't notified on booking that we needed to bring them. $2 per towel with a $20 deposit, seriously. All in all, the place was fine. I actually would stay here again, onsite amenities good especially the pool. Great for bonding and making new friends. Thank you

Arts Factory felt like a community as soon as you walked into the hostel. Nicole at front desk was the loveliest girl to chat to. Had a delicious coffee from the cafe every morning and sat watching the jungle around me from the kitchen balcony. The showers were the best I’ve had in any hostel so far. Great entertainment with the talent show and enjoyed several yoga classes by the lake. Great people running the place with a kind attitude.

La ubicación es buena, esta pegado a la carretera y cerca del centro. Habíamos cogido un alojamiento de una habitación con cama grande y una litera para tres que íbamos y nuestra sorpresa fue que nos dieron una mucho mejor y más grande con dos habitaciones , una con cama de matrimonio y la otra con cuatro literas, sala , baño, aseo por el mismo precio. Yo creo que fue porque no teníamos wifi por las inundaciones que había habido, pero todo un detalle por su parte. Las instalaciones muy bien. Hay pistas para jugar a tenis y ellos te proporcionan el material. Hay zonas comunes donde puedes hacer una comida con muchas personas equipada con frigoríficos, mesas y bancos , fregaderas e incluso tostadora y hervidor de agua, además de máquina de bebidas. Tiene un parque precioso para los niños y una piscina con buenas hamacas. En la zona donde se encuentran las lavadoras y secadoras han puesto un tenderete grande para colgar la ropa, ya que está prohibido que se cuelgue en los tenderetes plegables que hay en cada alojamiento. El personal muy amable y servicial. La impresión general muy buena, de hecho volveríamos seguro si viviéramos aquí, pero en todo caso lo recomendamos.

Has the best service from Jessica who accommodated our needs for such a large group booking for guests that travelled from overseas and Australia Great location and services We were able to have a meet and greet within the pool area They accommodated everyone and were able to supply single beds which was the request from majority of guests , Payment was only required 2 days before which helped with so many guests travelling from abroad Highly recommend Byron bay hotel and Apartments

Cabin were small for the price $150 night, beds were good, air-con worked well. Good size 📺 TV. Very quiet park in terms of no noises guests during my stay,so quiet, found it strange no children here, no playground! Small pool but nice. What bother me with the cabin, was right next to toilet and shower block, so the outside lights are on the whole night and shined through the side window. For a week stayed, you would think they put me in another cabin. Didn't mention it as couldn't be bother to move after day 1. I found this park good location, short walk to shops, through the side lane of the bus port. The staff were nice and helpful if you needed anything! I found the park quiet boring and Byron wasn't the place for me, not sure what the fuss is about Byron! Beach were average and cafe very tactic looking, Woolworths centre was nice to visit. Some nice looking clothes shop! Been all around Australia, Byron would have to be my least favorite place and that's a week I won't get back 😕

Good location, close walk to Tallows Creek and Tallows Beach, nice cabins and friendly staff. But the reason I only gave 3/5 stars is because of the cleanliness of the cabin we stayed in. I could see smudged finger marks on the wall above the kitchen sink, the fridge didn't look like it had been cleaned out, there was broken glass from a bottle on the inside of the front door as you walk in (I almost stepped on it), and there was layers of black mould in the air-conditioning which was situated right above the bed. I spoke with staff about this before we left (by the time we noticed the hygiene issues reception had closed so we had to wait until morning), which I have to say they handled remarkably. They were very apologetic for our experience and they gave us a full refund of our 1 night stay which we were very appreciative of. They thanked us for letting them know and said they will be speaking with their cleaners to get on top of this. I am really hoping that they do.. This is my second stay with Ingenia Holidays in Byron Bay and the first time (back in 2020), the cleanliness wasn't the greatest then either, so something needs to change. Black mould in the cabins anywhere let alone in an air conditioner that blows around the room is a serious health hazard for guests. I'm asthmatic so I was extremely worried to be sleeping in a room with mould. It was disappointing that this happened because Ingenia Holidays is an awesome park, I just hope they stick to their word about getting on top of the cleanliness so no one staying there becomes sick, and so someday maybe we can give them another chance to change our review.

Whilst driving down to the Hibiscus Motel, I realised that we we’re not going to be at the motel in time for checking and that on the Expedia website it stated that you needed to give them 24 hours notice if you were going to arrive later than 5pm. I emailed the motel and explained that we were going to be late and asked if we could make alternative arrangements to check in. I received an email back in no time, asking if I could call the hotel as my credit card had been declined. I called the hotel and was advised that these things happen and provided my credit card details over the phone. I hadn’t realised that I had had a replacement card. I was told where I could pick the key up from and everything was looking good. Just as we arrived at the motel, I check my email again to find that my card had yet again been declined and I was fully aware that reception had closed. I tried the combination for the safe and thankfully the keys to our room were in there, with a note asking if I could attend reception the next morning. The room, was a good size and whilst it might not have been the most luxurious in Australia, it was everything we needed for a couple of nights. The bed was really comfortable which provided a good nights sleep. The next morning I went to reception and was instantly put at easy by the staff. (This was the first time my card has been declined) We went through the check in procedure, attempted to pay for the room, where I received a text from the bank asking me to authorise the payment, this then went through. The staff could not have been any nicer or more understanding.

My partner and I had a short visit to Byron Bay and we stayed in the “Dragonfly’s rest” room at the Garden Burees. You enter by driving up a little pebble road and at this point already feel like you’ve entered into a secluded jungle. To get to our room we walked up another pebble path surrounded by lush greenery. We saw wild turkeys and a few lizards and water dragons. The entrance to the room was a double door of beautifully carved wood. Going through that door led us to an outdoor space featuring a stone bathtub, shower, sink, toilet, fishpond with waterfall and couch. This outdoor area was so nice for hanging out and relaxing and we couldn’t miss taking a romantic bath under the stars later that night (during which we got to watch some kind of lizard or gecko hunting bugs!). The indoor section of the accommodation had a bed, basic toiletries, candles, a living room area with a couch and table, a tv, refrigerator, microwave, kettle, silk robes, and board games. It was such a relaxing getaway that we almost just stayed in and didn’t even go into town. However, we pulled ourselves out of the zen to visit Byron. It was only a ten minute walk into the town. Overall our stay here was very peaceful and relaxing and we really loved having a private outdoor space to use and how immersed in nature this accommodation was!

Booked the Wollongbar motel based on the location, price and good reviews. A quick easy two minute walk into town. Also, with private beach access through a gate at the back of the property, you can walk across the train tracks, down the path to Belongil beach and up to Main beach. While located on busy Shirley St, I didn’t notice any traffic noise, just the sounds of the ocean. We stayed in a Double Balcony room, upstairs towards the back of the building. The room was very spacious, comfortable and clean. It is an older style motel but has been updated and while basic has everything you need (fan, aircon). The room felt a little dark due to the aspect and older style security windows but you could open the balcony door to let in light and air (the navy blue accents contributed to the darker feel). If styled with sandy creams or earthy tones, the room would feel a little lighter and more Byron, and flow better with the cream and white exterior. Same with the pool, a few simple updates, with a coat of white paint, a couple of new lounge chairs and some pot plants or landscaping would really lift the pool area. The pool was lovely and warm, we had a swim everyday day after the beach. Overall our stay was quiet and relaxing, being located close to but just outside the busy town. We were talking to someone who has been coming to Byron for the last 16 years and always stays at the Wollongbar, doesn’t even look elsewhere. The ‘affordable for Byron’ price is a step up from a private room in a hostel. We didn’t have a car and while a bus stop was located right out front of the motel, we never saw a bus go by. Byron isn’t well set up for public transport, so it’s harder to get around town without a car, we did a lot of walking. I just wish they had adult and kids bikes available at the motel! Most bike rental places were closed after COVID. The Byron Bus interchange is less than a 10 minute walk, we caught the public bus direct to Ballina airport on the way home about an hour’s trip (cash only $4.50 Adult / $2.20 Child). The reception staff were lovely and helpful. While the room was not serviced during our stay you could get fresh towels and toiletries from reception. And there was an on-site laundry $3 wash $3 dry.
