Top Ballina Racecourse Hotel Reviews

Richmond Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent"

The Cubana Ballina

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was clean and the bed was quite comfortable. The parking lot can get quite full but we never had an issue finding a spot near our room. We didn’t use the bbq facilities but saw other families enjoying them and would be keen to use them next time. My only negative about this accommodation is that we had neighbours on each side who smoked (cigarettes outside and marijuana in one of the rooms), and it smelled so strong of marijuana in our own room that we had to leave the window open to air it out. We did put towels under the doors to make it better, but the smell was quite strong. We didn’t complain about it because we didn’t spend much time in the room anyway, and probably not much that staff could do. But I would definitely stay here again and enjoy the convenient location to all areas of Ballina (walking distance to CBD)."

Ballina Beach Nature Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great place for families with young children who will without a doubt, have an amazing and memorable time. Shop has no nearby competition, so it is overpriced: so remember to bring your own food and snacks. Other than that, guaranteed to have a great time."

Ballina Palms Boutique Motel

10/10 Excellent

"It was a very unique design on the property. Very quaint and quiet."

Ballina Manor Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely stunning rooms, comfy beds and breakfast was amazing. Will 100% be back."

Almare Tourist Motel

8/10 Good

"Comfortable convenient stop"

Comfort Inn All Seasons

8/10 Good

"Handy location, welcoming staff. Room and amenties were more than adequate for a quick weekend away. Ample parking, however it is sometimes difficult to get a space in front/near your unit as they are not numbered or reserved by room."

Riverside Apartments & Hotel Ballina

8/10 Good

"If you stay on the side away from the river, you will be waken up by dump trucks at 6 am. They need a plumber and a toilet cleaner. Otherwise a top spot."

Ballina Homestead Motel

8/10 Good

"For us, traveling on a long electric vehicle road trip, the availability of onsite, undercover charging was a big advantage. Very comfortable bed. Comfortable settee was good to enjoy for our two night stay. Good dining options nearby — for example, a sunset dinner at the Wharf Bay and Restaurant, a pleasant stroll away beside the Richmond River."
