We really enjoyed our stay in Byron Springs, the room was very clean & the bed was comfortable. We liked that coffee & tea was available at all times & also the daily fresh brownies were a big plus! It's not directly in Byron Bay, but we enjoyed the fact that it was a bit remote.

I loved this place! The location is perfect, it's right in the middle of Byron but it's so peaceful and tranquil that you'd soon forget that! The style and decor is just beautiful and the staff were fantastic, wish I could have stayed longer. Will definitely be back. p.s I definitely appreciated the free lemons and complimentary AllPress cafetières to start my morning!
