I really don't know how I haven't posted a review of this place. I thought I had. After leaving…read moreanother place in the area that was gross and disgusting I walked into this hotel and was so pleasantly surprised. It took me days to even realize it's a backpackers hotel. The place is so clean and chic with great amenities, one would never know! The rooms are great here although wouldn't recommend getting a basic room especially for 2 as they are very small. I got an upgraded room and it was white all over with a massive bathroom and rain fall shower, the pressure was to die for . It even had a tiny balcony which I enjoyed for my morning coffees. They have a communal kitchen that is kept immaculately even has L'occitane soap to wash your dishes. Complete kitchen and grill to cook with a fridge for storage. There's laundry, and a small lap pool great for dips as Byron Bay is quite humid. There also is room service, which is why it I thought it was a regular hotel. Free coffee and tea and filtered water. What else can one ask for? Yes its a little more expensive than some of the other places in the area but it's worth it.

Exceptionally well set out. Friendly service and a great experience.

There are three houses on the property, and a number of rooms in each (eight in the one I stayed in). Each house is very modern with a kitchen, dining areas, BBQ, etc. Ideally you would come here with a family for a birthday or something like that, but even from my experience it was worth heading back to.

I came for lunch on a warm day so was happy to find indoor seating beyond the shaded seats outside that had been snapped up. The menu is standard pub food to which I chose the sirloin steak. I liked the option of picking two sides to add variety to the usual chips and salad. I loved the mushroom gravy however the steak wasn't amazing. Not overcooked to my medium request but tough and not all that flavoursome. My partner thought the beer was on the pricey side but I was relieved to find the only place so far that could accomodate a simple order of coke. Bottled not canned. We both liked the new order/payment system no doubt spurred on by the impacts of COVID. My partner ordered and paid online. Hassle free with a confirmation SMS that also let us know there would be a 30 minute wait.

Shit food. Same old boring pub food poorly cooked. Poor…read moreofferings. You cannot sit where you want if its 'family Wednesday' etc. Feels like being in a police state, not an Aussie pub.

It was somewhat quiet when I popped through, but that probably had something to do with when I actually visited the place. This place certainly had a lot of charm about it, and some nice beers on tap as well. Okay, it is a bit of a hike, but it's worth it.
