The property is newly refurbished, spotlessly clean, and offers very comfortable beds. The staff are amazing, and its convenient location makes it ideal, just a short 10-minute walk to the beach.

Great location walking distance into the main parts of Byron bay and the beach. The Hostel was peaceful at night with a friendly atmosphere during the day amongst fellow guests. There is a nice outdoor space with a big lawn and outdoor benches. The showers were clean and the private double bedroom was a good size with storage and fresh clean bedding. There was a good ceiling fan.

All hostels in Byron Bay

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Such a good location, bathrooms were so modern and spotlessly clean, really big and powerful showers, kitchen was always maintained and cleaned and there was lots of free condiments in the kitchen which is handy as a backpacker making meals!! Best hostel on our trip up the east coast

Great location- walking distance to everything. Friendly, helpful staff and nice clean facilities and rooms. The pool area was also very nice, as well as plenty of outdoor and indoor eating/ chilling space. Best hostel I’ve stayed in so far!
