(568 reviews)
A short walk from the town centre and a block from the beach, Wake Up! Byron Bay sits on Childe Street in one of the better-positioned spots in town. As part of the Wake Up! hostel group, the property pitches itself at the social end of budget-to-mid accommodation, with the kind of setup that suits travellers who want to actually meet people rather than stare at a hotel ceiling. Expect communal spaces, a lively atmosphere, and the trade-off that comes with it: this is not the place for an early night. Childe Street itself is quieter than the main drag, which helps. No reviews to draw on yet, so go in with eyes open, but the location alone carries weight in Byron's crowded accommodation market.

What People Say
Amandaa month ago
After 4 nights at Wake Up! Byron Bay, I can confidently say I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The value for money is excellent, and the girls at the front desk were always kind, welcoming, and accommodating. I appreciated receiving a fresh towel each day, and I also enjoyed the activities on offer. I attended one of the yoga sessions, which was a great experience. Although the hostel isn’t located in the town centre, I actually preferred that. It’s right across from Belongil Beach, which is beautiful, less crowded, and, in my opinion, even nicer than Main Beach. Getting into town was never an issue thanks to the complimentary shuttle service that runs every hour and conveniently stops right at the bus station. The only thing I would have liked to see improved was the volume of the music around the pool area. It was a little loud around midday, and I would have enjoyed being able to read and journal there more comfortably. I also noticed a few other guests who seemed to be trying to do the same. The rooms were kept quite clean, and the floors were vacuumed and mopped daily, which I appreciated. Overall, I would highly recommend staying here and would happily return on a future trip to Byron Bay.

Nice hostel! Location is perfect, away from the busy roads and with a private parking for guests and shuttle bus service available every hour. Lots of activities and nice kitchen. Quiet after 10 pm. The rooms are clean and recently renovated. The biggest downside is that they’re not soundproof, so you can hear almost every noise from the other rooms and the hostel in general. If someone slams a door, your room literally shakes (we stayed in one of the private rooms).

Elements of Byron
Byron Bay
Forty-five acres of coastal wetland, freestanding villas pointed at the trees, and private beach access. Elements sits deliberately apart from Byron's centre. The distance from the main strip isn't a drawback; it's the whole idea.
Raes on Wategos
Wategos Beach
The only property sitting directly on Wategos Beach, Raes trades on position and a long-running restaurant reputation. Mediterranean in feel, small in scale, and priced accordingly. If you're going to spend up in Byron, the address alone makes a reasonable argument.
