The Arts Factory Lodge , a short 5 minute walk from Byron Bay's main beach and township, is an enchanted 5 acre subtropical haven. Originally an old piggery and the birthplace of 'fame' and 'spirit' of Byron, in the early 70s, many local and international artists, hippies and alternative lifestylers...

This is a wacky kind of place. Once famous as a music club popular with American draft-dodgers during the Vietnam War, it's now big with young travelers seeking an alternative place to stay and older folk who cut their hair short years ago. Accommodations include tepees, tents, rooms made from bark ...

definitely a scene. especially the kitchen. sprawling grounds (beautiful and unique land). But overall it is a memorable experience. we stayed on the tent island, woke up to a huge lizard staring me in the face from the pond. some good entertainment at night. when not in the kitchen, most people wer...

Everything you read about this place is true it's huge with everything to offer the only problem is the people who stay there. It's very cliquey and the staff encourage this. It's a simple five minute walk to town and Byron bay is a bea...

Good atmosphere here, but the place is very overrated. Everywhere you go over Australia you meet people who tell you to stay at the Arts Factory when you go to Byron Bay. I stayed here for four nights, but by the third night the obsessive requests for ID and deposits got really irritating. You will ...

I could never say anything bad about this place. My best friend and I stayed in a tent there for a month, and she's still there too. A certain staff member showed me an amazing time at the lighthouse in town that I will never forget. The entertainment is beyond good and the atmosphere was the most a...

I love this place! when I got there ( all the way from holland) I thought, oh my God, what have I done ! But when I had put up my tent, I was thinking that it wasn't that bad at all! I made a lot of friends over there, and the hostel is great! free bus from ten in the morning till four in the mornin...

I stayed here two years ago, and I still can't stop thinking about what an amazing time I had. I stayed here for one month in the pentagon. The staff were fun and friendly, and there was always something unique to do. I never wanted to leave. It was an experience thro...

If you enjoy incessant didgeridoo playing and juggling and being charged thirty bucks a night by an alternative managment you'll love it. This is easily the most commercial hos...

If you want a small hostel that makes you feel instantly at home, this is not remotely the hostel for you. The A.F. is huge and it will take people there a little time to warm up to you. I found the rooms to be a bit smelly, but the staff were fun and pretty helpful. The campground is more of a tent...

Man, this place has changed. I stayed there in 1992 when it was a normal looking hostel (albeit with teepees on the grounds) run by one of the mellowest hippies ever to grace the planet. When I went back in 2003 it had turned into an uber hostel, a huge industry trading on its hippie origins, which ...

The Arts Factory has a campground, a pool, cool main lobby, cinema, bar, and restaurant. They have shuttles that run into town hourly and the walk is only about twenty minutes we're backpackers, we walk a lot anyways. When staying in Byron around the Blues and Roots Festival time it's best to camp. ...

The showers are gross and if you didn't look like a hippie people didn't really want to talk to you. Other than that, it was cool though a bit out of town. Definitely a unique pla...

We checked into the arts factory for one night, but ended up staying for a week. So laid back and mellow, we didn't want to leave but the funds had the better of us. The staff were top notch and the entertainment was to shout out about. If you are looking for a chilled out time then here's your plac...

When my bus dropped me off at this hostel I wanted to grab my bags and run... I didn't realize how far out of town I was and I was the ONLY person dropped off here, probably for obvious reasons... this hostel was dirty and disgusting, there were only 2 rooms left one in a tent with a dirt floor and ...
