Love the place, its uniqueness in the vanilla of the modern Byron Bay, as well as its proximity to beaches, town etc. The staff were a mixed bunch, the lady that checked me was awesome, friendly, competent and welcoming.Other staff were a mixed bunch with some having little interest and others being somewhat rude. The joint is also looking a bit run down compared to what it was years ago. Would I stay again?, possibly, I hardly spent any time there as I was working at the Mullum Music festival, so if was living the backpacker ( as opposed to traveller) dream perhaps I would stay again. ##### Arthur Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Apr 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cozy hostel I really like the vibe at Arts Factory Lodge! It is a beautiful, cozy, friendly and artsy place with a lot of young backpackers. It can get a bit loud at times but there is loads of space and a big kitchen fitting many chefs at one go. Also loved the morning yoga! The dorms only have one ceiling light, no individual lamps or power sockets and the wifi isn’t very good in the rooms. But all in all it was a good stay! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mathilde Aug 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful hostel with good vibes, the room was perfectly clean, quiet during the night, the bathrooms were ok, the shared kitchen is big, well equipped and pretty clean !
