The Hibiscus Motel itself is probably not much different to any other motel in Byron bay - except that the owners were fantastic, I felt like I was staying with friends as opposed to at a motel. The location is ideal, being only a block or two away from the restaurants, the beach and the mini-mart you're just close enough... More

We arrived late in the evening during heavy rainfall. The motel's location is perfect if you want to becentrally located. The room was properbut would benefit from renovation. For this price you get much nicer and more modern rooms with much better facilities just a little further out.

Ok... so you read this stuff and find out that people have different tastes and stuff.. agreed. We needed one night in Byron Bay and found this place... I wish we had stayed here for more nights... The motel is clean, basic, but amazingly friendly and has a 1960s type charm which is refreshing and simple. A nice walk to... More

We only stayed for one night... although room was simple yet clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Within walking distance to all shops/bars/restaurants! Great value!
