Small room. Didn’t expect that small.
Pros:

Pool is nice. Staff is very friendly.

Cons:

King room is very small. Only bed and bathroom. Hard to find place to put luggage. No room for a chair. Sitting beside pool is the best option. Also close to busy road. Staff is very friendly.

Excellent service in a calm area of Byron Bay
Pros:

Clean, spacious room with lots of natural light. Free access to the bikes to cycle down the road to the local shops and Byron beach was great. Great coffee shop literally next door.

Service was excellent. The lovely ladies at reception truly went above and beyond, helping me with my traditional bow tie before the wedding!

When we return to Byron, we will definitely be staying here again.

Cons:

We booked this hotel partially for their spa facilities. Before the stay I received a message about their spa services. I asked to book a massage for my wife and then I got a message back saying they were fully booked. I appreciate it was probably an automated message but it should be disabled if there is no availability. Fortunately, there were plenty of other good options in Byron.
