Descubra sua estadia em Ballina

This was a great place to stay in Ballina; centrally located so that we could park our car and mostly walk where we needed to go. Also was able to have the desk call us a cab if we needed to go farther. The room was small, but the bathroom was spacious and the bed was quite comfy. The only thing not comfortable was the heat, but the hotel furnished us with a fan and we tried keeping the windows open. We spent one evening at the downstairs bar with friends, which was cozy with live music. We spent another evening with friends at the bar upstairs, which was also terrific for our needs. One evening we ate at the restaurant with a fabulous river view seat. Loved watching the fishermen while we ate. Actually saw them catching salmon in the river! Plus our meal was absolutely delicious and the staff was attentive. Finally, we had four breakfasts in the restaurant and the quality and quantity was terrific to get us through most of the day. Lots of variety to choose from, and they were open to flexible choices.

Disappointing trip to Ballina. Our first. Spent a Bank Holiday here and expected more. Arrived Saturday. Room was fine except for a constant loud buzzing sound from a fuse box. I had to manufacture earplugs from tissue paper to drown out the noise. Reported the issue to reception first thing next day and no problem, we were relocated later that day. Saturday evening, our first day, we arrived down to the bar/restaurant for a meal. Christening party in main restaurant so we made do with bar. Got menus and really liked the options available. However, it was realised we were on the weekend deal with a main course option. So main menu was replaced with a much limited free main course option. We persisted and had an adequate experience. No problem we reckoned we could go for the Crab etc.. when we dined there on Sunday. Leisure centre very Disappointing. Centre cold, water also cold. Ambiance zero. Nothing like photos on website. Warmed up in steam room before leaving. Overall experience poor. Staff very good. Sunday, spent the afternoon watching the football. Had been out and about for the morning but as M recovering from surgery she elected to stay in the room. I watched the footy in the bar. Tiny TV with everyone struggling to enjoy the experience. M arrives down at 6ish and I ask for a table for 2 for a main course. M still on crutches and tired not needing much, but wanted something quick and head back to room early. Eva Braun informs us NO availability until 8.15... despite the restaurant being empty.. I explained we are guests, would be approx. 60 minutes having a main... was told with no uncertainty that there was no availability.. the restaurant or the bar.. was told I could have service in reception.. *** Extraordinary Never had this kind of response in 40+ years Rang the Poacher. Restaurant they offered us a table at 7. Booked a taxi. Had an amazing meal. Got taxi home. Back in room at 9. We had a lovely evening in the Poacher. No thanks to Fraulein Braun...

We visited here this weekend, myself my husband and 3 kids. We were in a family suite which was huge! Biggest family room we’ve ever stayed in. Separate area for kids beds with their own tv and another tv in the adults area. We also needed a cot bed and there was still lots of room. There is a mini fridge also which was handy. We played a few games of snooker in the snooker room which was great. The food was incredible. We ate dinner in the bistro and the portions were huge. Really lovely hearty food. Breakfast was great too and all staff were super friendly and efficient. Would definitely recommend. The only thing missing is a pool.
