Find the Cheap Byron Bay Hotels

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.

When you drive to your villa you wonder if you made a bad choice, beautiful lush grounds but the villas more shipping container than anything. Once you open the door however you have a beautiful space. See photos. Our chosen villa for two people was spacious, the king bed very comfortable, great shower, great wifi. My only gripe is a very poorly designed bath, my not very broad shoulders couldn't lie flat against the bath as it is too curved. We ate a few times in the resort at different locations and the results were mixed from ok to very good. Food was on the pricey end.Staff were helpful and friendly at all times. The solar train every hour up to 5pm to the town was fun way to get there. Uber was about $20.

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 😕

Perfect location and great service

When I booked I called and emailed about a ground floor apartment as I have mobility issues, I was promised ground floor and that there would be a note 'do not move'. Yes we were given ground floor but with steps to access our section, this meant my husband had to cart wheelchair up and down 5 steps and I had to be extra cautious utilising the steps. I contacted the managers who were very apologetic offering any assistance if we needed with wheelchair etc. I did remind that I was promised ground floor due to mobility and was told the areas 1 & 2 were 2 bedroom and the only 1 beds were in stairwell 3 and they were fully booked I'd they weren't they would've give us one. Well in hindsight the promise shouldn't have been made. 5 hours later they offered us an apartment at another accommodation which was disability friendly. The thought of packing and moving 5 hrs in when we'd settled and unpacked was the last thing I could think of. Very kind of them and they tried their best but maybe juggling too many promises is their downfall. We had to move their carpet square around as upturned corners were trip hazards. Yes noise issues as others have said can hear toilet flush upstairs, and unwelcome stomping about at 2am. There was a noise issue at 7pm that first night of a group singing, yelling and stomping about. We made contact with manager again who quickly looked into it. Was told apparently a few families who booked accommodation meeting in one apartment deciding where to go for dinner.....that was some loud excitable decision making! Loud enough for us to make a noise complaint. Position is great, walk (and wheelchair) to everything, shops, cafes, beach and restaurants. I stayed there 4 years ago but when I was more mobile a nd would probably stay again but would be clear with my needs and call again pri.or to check-in to ensure all good.. Clean other than sand under that mat we had to move. And the fridge and pantry could do with a scrub.

Very beautiful hotel, the room is decorated in a seaside style, the downstairs is equipped with a swimming pool, the front desk service is very intimate! Ctrip members prepared welcome red wine in advance, arranged in the room, do not drink the whole bottle to go 🥳 There are bicycles and helmets downstairs, you can get the keys to the front desk, and ride to the town and the beach for a few minutes~ The sunset of the burning cloud in Byron Bay is so beautiful! It's a pity that you can't see the beach sunset in the east

The location is very good, in a small town with many small shops to visit. The beach is a 2-minute walk away. There are many cafes around, and a large supermarket is a 5-minute drive away. Dining is convenient.

It is estimated that there are very few Chinese people who book a trip to Byron Bay on Ctrip. The reviews are all translated from English, so they are not very useful for reference. I will write a few words here for reference in case there are people who know this place and want to travel there. First of all, there are very few Asians in Byron Bay. For those who just want to check in at a certain place and take a photo to post on WeChat Moments, it is quite boring here. It is recommended to go to Bali or Phuket. The place is simple and not high-end. The hotel we stayed in... The whole Australia is almost the same - the hardware is old and shabby. The decoration of the all-seasons level is very good, at least it should be considered a four-star... There are not many attractions, so Asians who are afraid of the sun can take a detour. This hotel is old and there is no daily cleaning. It is an ”apar**ent-style” hotel, which means that you live in an apar**ent and you are responsible for cleaning and taking out the garbage during your stay. It is clean and tidy inside, but it is really too old. The tableware, cups and plates are all large and small, and they are all pieced together. Anyway, practicality is important, and other things don't matter. The location is very convenient, very close to the main beach and the downtown area (but these places are usually crowded and relatively cheap). However, there is a restaurant on the main beach. Every afternoon, happy hour costs more than 30 Australian dollars, two glasses of wine + a large plate of fresh shrimps, which are large and delicious. It is a good deal. If you say you will come again tomorrow, the boss may not be happy... Walking out of the hotel, on the busiest street outside the main beach, I drank white wine and ate oysters in several restaurants during happy hour. I found that the price of oysters varies greatly, and some are twice as much. If I don’t explore and compare, I really don’t know. Back to this hotel, the overall target audience should be backpackers. From the perspective of this group, it may be very satisfactory. Therefore, a hotel that matches your spending power and feels cost-effective is a good hotel. We booked the hotel late, and there was no room at a suitable price, and the available rooms were too expensive to accept. This was the only one, so we chose it. It is also a kind of fate.
