Reviews for Hibiscus Motel
Review 1:I didn't have anything to complain about. First impressions from the street were disappointing but inside the rooms were refurbished and very clean and modern.
Review 2:Location was awesome. Surprisingly quiet, considering how close it was to everything. The manageress was so accommodating and helpful, welcoming and friendly. Comfortable bed and modern bathroom.
Review 3:It was very good for a motel room!
Review 4:It is a very clean motel room as a motel room should be with the basic things. Nothing fancy but very suitable for limited nights. free parking.
Review 5:Staff were very friendly and obliging. We had a wedding and required an earlier arrival time - the room was available and ver clean. This accommodation is around corner from beach. Very easy walking distance
Review 6:Nothing
Review 7:Amazing management,very welcoming, kind & caring. We were traveling with a unwell child arriving late and they were kind enough to have the heater on so we were comfortable. Always friendly. Would highly recommend.
Review 8:Newly renovated. Very clean. Comfortable beds. Walking distance to everything, and only a short walk which is great with young children. Friendly and helpful staff. Designated car park out the front of each room.
Review 9:no ownership of the problem with their wifi - it didn't work and there was no technical back up; they implied that the problem lay with my iPad and not their system (they said no one had ever had a problem, showed me that their connection was working and so deduced that it must be a problem with my iPad - I have stayed in a large number of motels and never had such a problem); I got it sorted myself the next night they asked me to help another customer who also had problems with his wifi connection - they were again showing this poor man that their wifi connection was working, no use to him whatsoever other minor issues with poor TV reception, limited channels; wifi is also time limited really need to get a better IT system and support in place
Review 10:good location neat the shops and beach
Review 11:a motel has always giot a special smell (we don't know why - you?)
Review 12:Though this is a MOTEL and we Europeans are not really used to it, it was absolutely clean and ok. A motel is a motel - and no hotel ;-) We did not have any car but the loacation is good... close to beach for a walk to watch the whales (near lighthouse) THX
Review 13:Didn't have a bad experience. Only thing would comment that it was great in a group of friends but I could see how a family with young kids would want something a bit bigger.
Review 14:Stayed in Deluxe Suite with a group of friends. Was renovated, spacious and clean. Centre of town. Excellent for what we wanted. Staff were really friendly. Thankyou Hibiscus!
Review 15:I recently stayed here with my two young children and it was fabulous. Friendly staff, immaculate room, well priced, great location and it felt very safe. We didn't need to use the car at all, and we had a really nice break. The Motel even lent the kids boogie boards to take to the beach.
Review 16:Great central location, walking distance to beach and shops. Recently refurbished room was spotlessly clean and beds comfortable. Owners were friendly and offered boogie boards to my daughters as soon as we arrived.Had wi fi
Review 17:No negatives!
Review 18:Excellent location, walking distance to the beach and shops. Room was very clean and well appointed and a really good size, we were two couples traveling together and the suite was great with it's two separate rooms. We had a tour booked for the afternoon and requested with the owners if we could come and park our car there early but they actually ensured our room was ready for an early check-in which was awesome. All in all lovely staff and perfect location to explore Byron, would definitely stay again.
Review 19:Would have liked an onsite pool but as it is so close to the beach not really important.
Review 20:Loved the central location of the Hibiscus Motel. Looks 'ordinary' from the outside but room was very nicely updated and comfortable. Heather and Les the staff were great, so friendly and helpful.
Review 21:Nothing ...all good nothing bad
Review 22:The location was brilliant ..close to beach, restaurants and shops. Rooms were modern and clean with comfy beds. Owners were friendly and welcoming. Would definitely come back..
Review 23:No ceiling fans in bedrooms- coastal breeze was good whilst I was there but I imagine it would get very hot in the middle of summer.
Review 24:I will definitely return to this accomodation. The staff were so friendly, warm and helpful. Excellent rooms and so close to everything, didn't use the car once.
Review 25:Awsome time away. Great managers, quite area, rooms have everthing you need. Short walks everywhere. So no drivin and driving.So many resturant to choose from. Beach 3 mins away. I am going to be making The Hibiscus a regular break away for hubby and me .
Review 26:A round table for eating would be good, rather than the wall table.
Review 27:We arrived late from Brisbane and the reception stayed open specially to welcome us. Very pleasant small apartment, 2 bedrooms, good and quiet heater. Very clean and quiet. The motel is really near the center so a walk up to the front is very easy and pleasant. Great value in Byron Bay.
Review 28:The staff were incredible. So super friendly and high energy and helpful. I believe they were just filling in for the regular people but they were just great.
Review 29:Hosts were very accommodating and couldn't do enough for us. Lovely shower and having a kitchen area was a bonus! Great value for money and highly recommended.
Review 30:Unfortunately like previous reviews about this motel is the noise level from the surrounding motels and backpackers. Lucky it was a week day we stayed and noise was over by 9pm. Most of the surrounding accommodations have strict noise level controls so this will only effect early bedtimes before 9pm
Review 31:Location of motel was minutes walk from Restaurants, shops and a short drive to lighthouse. Rooms were nice and clean with the basics you would require for a short stay.
Review 32:It is very functional and it wouldn't be a place I would stay in for a long period of time, saying that it was perfect for our visit to Byron and we could happily have stayed there another night or two (we only had one night).
Review 33:I loved that the motel staff were really concerned that the noise from other younger couples hadn't affected us while we stayed there and that they specifically spoke to the other motel guests to ensure this happened - WITHOUT us asking. The place was clean and perfectly situated close to the main areas and just what we needed for a quick overnight stop in Byron Bay. It was reasonably priced for our family stop off and had all we needed, tea, milk, shower gels etc. It also had free parking.
Review 34:Very disappointed at the mark up in price due to festival weekend - $145 to $375 per night. Made worse by the fact whilst we were staying there the price on this site was advertised for $270. Room was not serviced during out 4 day stay which is disappointed as was not an apartment but a standard motel room.
Review 35:The location was excellent, one block from beach, shops and in quiet street
Review 36:Air-con is very noisy.
Review 37:Central, near beach,old style motel nicely renovated(but not the air-con!!!!!),very nice managers that helped me like Byron again.will book again in near future..Catherine & friends.
Review 38:The room does not have a proper kitchen, just a microwave. Some noises from other rooms and from outside, not fly screens.
Review 39:The location in great, short stroll from everywhere (beach, restaurant, shops, ecc). The staff is friendly and happy to help, the rooms are nice and clean, bed are comfortable.
Review 40:On getting to Byron, we realized that there are many local properties-- landed, apartments and hotels-- that do not show up on the usual travel websites. If travelling during off-peak period, getting there and picking a place might help, else use local websites as well to source Byron's scenic accommodations.
Review 41:We stayed at the Hibiscus recently for 2 days. We found Hibiscus to be a clean, comfortable motel with a great location-- close to Main Beach and the restaurants, but what made our stay special was how the motel managers, Les and Helen went out of their way to make our stay comfy. They were extremely friendly and generous with travel tips-- made our stop feel like a home-stay with family! Thanks, Les & Helen!
