Reviews of Yha Byron Bay Hostel

Jon
Great location near supermarkets and bus stop. Plenty of open areas to enjoy the fresh air. Friendly and helpful staff.
The kitchen wasn't well-maintained, with overcrowded fridges and dirty utensils. The common toilets and showers were not cleaned during our entire stay, making them unpleasant to use.

Thomas
We had a great time staying at a hostel in Byron Bay. The reception staff were very helpful and organized a walking tour to the lighthouse, where we met some amazing people. The swimming pool and outdoor areas were a nice touch. Despite a few drawbacks, the cool vibe and cleanliness of the place made up for it. I highly recommend this hostel for a fun and enjoyable stay.

Richard
The location was perfect, with everything we needed within walking distance. The hostel itself was quiet and relaxing, allowing us to have privacy and unwind. The pool was a great spot to soak up some sun and the kitchen was well-equipped, even providing individual cutlery packs for hygiene purposes. The addition of a fitness area was a bonus. we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back again!
Although the WiFi wasn't the best, it didn't greatly impact our stay. Additionally, the price for a night was a bit high, but we understood that it was due to the time of year.

This hotel exceeded our expectations in terms of value for money. We were impressed with the affordable prices and the attention to detail throughout the establishment. The location was also fantastic, with easy access to restaurants, cafes, shops, and most importantly. The service provided by the staff was commendable, and the basic amenities, including the rooms and the massive kitchen, were more than satisfactory. Additionally, the free wifi and included breakfast made our stay even more enjoyable.
One minor issue was that the room hadn't been cleaned properly with some overlooked rubbish under the bed.

The hotel is so close to everything you will probably want to do in the area. Whether it's exploring the nearby restaurants and cafes or being right on the edge of all the action, you won't have to go far to find something to do. The service from the staff is fantastic, they are friendly and always willing to help out. The basic amenities in the hotel are great, with good bathrooms and big lockers to store your belongings. The massive kitchen is a definite plus for those who enjoy cooking their own meals. And to top it all off, breakfast is included, which is a nice bonus.
The only minor issue I noticed was that the rooms had been cleaned properly, but there was some rubbish under the bed that had been overlooked.

I stayed in a beautifully renovated private room at this hostel and it truly felt like staying in a new hotel. The room was clean and had modern amenities like a flat screen TV and fresh linens. The private bathroom had a beautiful shower and sink. The common space and kitchen area were newly renovated and a great place to socialize with other travelers. The location was convenient, with a short walk to the beach and town center. I had a great experience and would highly recommend this hostel.

Robert
The breakfast was delightful, with freshly made pancakes every morning, and the staff were friendly and helpful with great recommendations for nearby restaurants. The location was perfect, just a short walk away from the city center and the beach. the shared spaces like the lounge and pool were clean and well-maintained, allowing for a comfortable stay.
The room was a bit cramped and airless, as there wasn't enough ventilation, and the view from the window wasn't that great. There were some minor repairs needed in the bathroom like missing hooks for towels.

First off, the value for money was incredible - a new room with a private en-suite at an affordable price. The location was perfect, close to everything you need. The staff were friendly and went above and beyond to help us find free parking in the busy town.
The hotel breakfast menu could use some improvement.

This hotel is a great value for money with affordable prices. The staff are friendly and helpful, providing excellent service. The basic amenities like the massive kitchen and good bathroom make your stay comfortable. The location is perfect, right on the edge of all the action, close to the bus station and supermarket. Additionally, breakfast is included, which is a great bonus.
That the rooms could get quite hot without air conditioning, making it a little uncomfortable at night. However, this was a minor issue amongst the many positive aspects of this hotel.

Peter
I really felt like I got my money's worth staying here. The room was clean and comfy, and the location was perfect - close to town and the beach. The staff at YHA were amazing, super friendly and always ready to help.
The hotel breakfast menu could use some improvement, maybe offer a wider variety of options.

What an incredible place to stay! the location is perfect, right opposite the bus stop, making it super convenient to get around easily. the private room I stayed in was impeccable with amazing amenities, sparking bathroom and comfortable mattress. the staff was fantastic and friendly, making me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. For breakfast, the free pancakes were just the best, and there were fantastic leisure facilities available, including the swimming pool and a lounge area with great views.
Sadly, the only downside was the limited parking availability, which could sometimes be quite frustrating.
