Common questions

Booking a bed in Byron Bay

From dorms to private rooms, here's what guests ask before they stay.

How do I check room availability and prices?

Availability and rates change by date, so we keep them live on our booking page. Head to /stay, pick your dates and see what's open for the six-bed dorm, four-bed female dorm or private double.

Can I book directly with the hostel instead of a booking site?

Yes. Booking through /stay goes straight to us, no middleman, same rooms and dates you'd see anywhere else.

What are your reception hours for check-in?

Reception is open 7am to 9pm every day. You can check in any time within those hours.

Is someone at reception if I arrive late?

Reception closes at 9pm each night. If you're arriving later, call us on 02 6685 0100 to arrange your arrival.

What rooms are on offer?

Three options: a six-bed dorm, a four-bed female dorm and a private double. See each one at /rooms.

What's included with each dorm bed?

Every dorm bed, in both the six-bed dorm and the four-bed female dorm, has its own curtain, light and power point.

Which room suits a solo female traveller?

The four-bed female dorm is a female-only room, good for women travelling solo or in a small group who want that space.

Which room suits a couple or two friends?

The private double gives you a room to yourselves, away from the dorms.

Where exactly is the hostel?
