What guests think

At Ballina Manor Boutique Hotel, guests praise the beautifully restored heritage building, friendly service, and comfortable, spacious rooms with character, all in a quiet, walkable location close to shops, restaurants and the river.

The code-based check-in works smoothly, and staff are repeatedly described as welcoming and helpful. Many enjoy the varied continental breakfast, though the fine-dining restaurant is sometimes closed on Sundays or in winter. Some mention internal stairs to upper rooms, and a rare maintenance or dining-value quibble appears among otherwise positive feedback. Overall, expect a character-filled, comfortable stay with attentive service.

Property is in a great quiet location, parking was easy checkin and check out was simple. Room was a great size with all fittings in good condition we stayed in room 11, just note it is on the top floor so there are some internal stairs to climb. Will recommend to anyone looking for accommodation and would stay here again.

Lovely old building with interesting history which has been beautifully restored. Rooms are spacious with very comfortable beds and pillows, good WiFi, heating and cooling, balcony and large bathroom with spa bath (we were ungraded to a spa room). Staff were pleasant, there is contactless check-in and the continental breakfast was very good (cereal, fruit, yoghurt, breads, pastries, cheese, meats, etc). Located walking distance to town in a quiet area. There is also a swimming pool and on-site parking. Would definitely stay there again.

This is such a beautiful old house that has been maintained beautifully. We both love the old style homes and try to stay in this type of era places. The rooms were fantastic, bathroom was very clean. Very peaceful location, but close to what you want to do. The hosts Hannah and Gersch were really accommodating and so pleasant. Would highly recommend staying here.
