What guests think

At Ramada Hotel & Suites by Wyndham Ballina Byron, travellers highlight scenic riverside views and a walkable location, friendly staff, and apartment-style convenience, while noting intermittent dining closures, occasional noise from shared doors, and inconsistencies in cleanliness and parking.

Rooms are often spacious and comfortable, though some are dated or feature open-plan bathroom layouts that reduce privacy. Guests also appreciate the pool and small gym, though pool access can be challenging for those with mobility needs. Best for travellers who value room comfort and self-sufficiency over full-service dining.

Lovely corner room with great view of river. Beautiful breakfast and 2 nice restaurants close by. Parking included. Would definitely recommend Pool is lovely too although not so easy for disabled to get out

Another great stay at Ramada. Only issue this time was lack of parking. They allow the staff to park in the undercover parking, and many guests (including myself) were left to park outdoors on the street. Not a good experience for guests. Very limited untimed parking on the street as well, so risked getting fined

We didnt understand why there was only 2 levels of car spaces in the undercover parks when there are 6 levels of rooms? we struggled to get a park at all when we got back from our event, think it was last! Was there more we were not told about?

Pool was very difficult to get in and out of, only one handrail and slippery tiles......and than straight into deep end. Watched other people how the negotiated getting in for a swim, most sat done to go in....getting out was harder. I am a solo person, booked queen bed and got king....I felt lost. Website said room service and restaurant...duh, none.....No good, had to go to Woolworth to buy something to eat.... Will never go back

Really disappointed given previous guests left over fridge items were still in fridge when I checked into my room, milk opened un-replenished , blind in bathroom missing resulting in a very bright light filled room over night despite even closing the bathtub shutters. 3 night stay all up however with the light filled room untested for business travel.

Air Con filter wasnt serviced or changed so it was smelly. Room service didnt vaccum the bathroom properly and didnt change the bedsheet nor they picked up the empty plastic water bottles kept next to the bin. Room location wasnt great from 2nd floor even though it was river front. The rooms are structured in a way where its ideal for 2 families to stay together but if 2 different couples or families are accommodated then the main door opening and closing os very loud alongwith the room entrance door so its noisy entering and exiting while you are fast asleep.

Easy place to stay for a night or two. Suggest booking a river view room. We really like this hotel but they need do something about the doors to suites as they slam shut and wake all those in nearby rooms. Also soft close cupboard doors and toilet lids as everything slams and echoes from other rooms.

So conveniently located in main town with plenty of choice for eating. The restaurant/bar in the hotel is very good however separate to Ramada. Great staff and food.

We stayed in a one bedroom riverview apartment with a lovely view. It was very spacious, with doors to close off the bedroom, handy with our 6-month-olds naps. Great facilities to make our stay more comfortable, including a coffee machine and washing machine / dryer (shared with on other apartment). A spacious balcony as well. What stood out to me was the staff here. From reception volunteering suggestions on where to eat on a public holiday, to the cleaners promptly responding to an accident when our baby was ill during the night and bringing fresh linen, all of the staff seemed happy to help. We'd stay again.

Great location, central to shopping. Usually a lovely view of the river from many rooms. Unfortunately, their restaurant (Mezza at the Point), and bar was closed until further notice, so no room service, pre-dinner drinks, food or just to enjoy the view was available. Still the same room rack rate though, even with loss of a fairly major facility. The restaurant was privately owned and would close it's doors for private functions, and there would be no room service during these events, as we found out to our disappointment on other occasions. The Ramada really needs to run it themselves, or charge less to the leaseholders (with guaranteed room service), because there has been change of management over the years, and I watched the steady decline of this last one. A four-star accommodation like the Ramada, that charges the highest rates in the area, should provide an in-house restaurant and room service, as it's fellow chain hotels do.
