We did a road trip from Sydney to The Gold Coast and stopped at Byron. We booked a deluxe suite for two nights @$290 pn because ours was a last minute trip and nothing else was available. Parking was included. The ground floor room was very convenient to access and was huge. More spacious than appeared in the photographs. You could tango in the bathroom and waltz around more freely in the bedroom!! It had an extra bed, a sofa, dining table and plenty of storage. The bathroom had a full length tub - full length!! - that was easy to get in & out off (at my age that’s a consideration). The balcony faced the road and really wasn’t an issue for us. The location was fabulous just 100 metres to Main Beach and around the corner from the shops. We didn’t have to take the car anywhere & deal with street parking which was great. The morning tea/ coffee fruit and muffins from 7-10 or 11am were a lovely bonus. Not just a token plate but the best muffins I’ve had! And a good choice of Nespresso pods. They offer beach towels and beach toys/ floaties etc for your use from reception. Don’t forget to slather on your sunscreen from the lobby before you head off. The external showers when you return from the beach are on the side lane. Such a lovely stay (sigh!). I would love to come back for a return stay- maybe at the penthouse which looked fabulous from the street!!

Great location, friendly staff and a spacious, clean room. The added complimentary coffee, fruit and pastries was a welcome addition. The only issue for us was the bed was too soft but that’s a personal preference, two thumbs up regardless.

The hotel has a really good location close to Main Beach and restaurants and shops. However, the hotel is quite expensive and feels a little bit outdated for the price. It’s a gap under the doors so we found a cockroach that came from outside. Not uncommon for Australia but could be prevented with better sealed doors. Great with parking included!
