Top Ballina Racecourse Hotel Reviews

Ballina Homestead Motel

8/10 Good

"Motel was a perfect place for a stopover on a road trip. Clean and comfortable. Staff were really friendly. A great option for something simple and cheap."

Ballina Palms Boutique Motel

10/10 Excellent

"We were so surprised by this lovely boutique motel. Attention and care has been placed on the rooms to make them an enjoyable place to be. The decor was lovely. The room was bright and had a proper little kitchen & dining table. All the staff we met were really friendly. We would just suggest taking Earplugs if you're noise sensitive due to nearby traffic noise. We highly recommend this motel and if we pass through Ballina again we'd definitely go back."

Avlon Gardens Motel - Ballina

10/10 Excellent

"An extremely quiet, safe, spacious motel."

Riverside Apartments & Hotel Ballina

10/10 Excellent

"Returning guest, excellent as always"

Richmond Motor Inn

8/10 Good

"Nice clean and cozy room, parking is easy but tight if you have a big car or 4wd"

Ramada Hotel and Suites Ballina Byron

8/10 Good

"All was perfect On a bien profité"

Ballina Byron Islander Resort and Conference Centre

10/10 Excellent

"This motel is great value for money. Highly recommended"

Ballina Beach Nature Resort

8/10 Good

"Such a soft comfy bed. I stayed in a glamping tent. Was hot so I. Glad there was AC. Only thing I’d like to see perhaps is a little mirror and a shelf to put clothes etc on. Yes I understand that it’s a ‘swag’ but if you have a bed and fridge and sink etc may sweep make it a bit more glampy and pop a mirror and somewhere to put clothes instead of on the floor. Good location. Short drive to beach, probably can walk it, nice little water park too. Clean and tidy facilities. Bit pricey for the glamping tent though. If staying for a while and want secure tent, bring a little padlock. They have one to use too. Overall good stay and would visit again."

The Cubana Ballina

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay. easy access to shops and restaurants. Close proximity made travel easy. Parking was a bit tight. free spaces, but a narrow turn to get in and out."
