After spending $160/nt at a new hotel on the Gold Coast, coming to Byron Bayside was such a let down. $240/nt for a run down, dirty, noisy establishment wasn't a great end to our holiday. The only good thing about this motel is the location. From the words of my 7 year old "I don't like this bed mummy, it... More

Perfectly situated in town centre and minutes from beach,shops and restaurants. Nice large rooms with balcony and personal laundry and good range of kitchen items but no air-con in our room which might have been a problem in Summer. Underground secure car park is a plus as their are a few drunken youths about at night many using the adjacent... More

Rooms are very ordinary, self contained, no microwave! Beds very uncomfortable, old! We were in rm 15, above the restaurant, very hot, noisy at night and 1st thing in the am, restaurant across the car park.. Booked and paid for 3 nights, stayed 2 - moved to an A/c place Lord Byron Resort, same price not as close to the... More

A very clean and comfortable good sized room including washing machine & dryer, well equipped kitchen, balcony and secure basement parking. Very helpful, friendly staff who made it easy to book an extra night at short notice. We liked the strict rules regarding noise; the vegetarian cafe downstairs; easy walk to shops and beach.

We were pleasantly surprised with these accommodations. The rooms can get hot yes but with a fan on it becomes a comfortable temperature. I believe people do have the choice of having a/c so if that is something that is important to you just book accordingly. Staff is very friendly and always willing to help out. The free Internet and... More

I went on a family holiday in October last year to Byron Bay for a family wedding. One of the worst trips I have ever had with planes cancelled and getting to Byron a day late. We were charged a "late" fee by motel receptionist due to our plane being cancelled and rescheduled and also we were charged extra from... More

I agree whole heartedly with Eileen C. This complex is very central to the buzz of Byron. It has under cover parking (a plus for a budget motel) which is locked during the night for added security. Our room was spacious, had everything you needed. We stayed 2 nights and enjoyed a pleasant stay though it was a little stuffy... More

We were not aware that the rooms were above shops. Our Room no.12 was above a restaurant with the expected noise factor. It had been an extremely hot day with the rooms facing the West, so we kept the curtains drawn during the afternoon which was hot as there was no air conditioning just a very slow ceiling fan. There... More
