Wollongbar Motel

10/10 Excellent
"Loved this motel. It was great. It was very close to the main town, and we were able to park our car outside our room and walk into the town. Byron Bay is fab. The staff at the hotel were amazing, really helpful and very responsive. We arrived late which they accommodated brilliantly. I would definitely recommend this motel."
