There was truly nothing we didn't like

From the minute we stepped in the front door. It was like home. Beautiful furnishings. Staff were genuinely happy to see us. Comfy big bed. Fabulous breakfast. Excellent

On Sunday morning, when all the bathrooms were in use, I lost hot water in the shower which was not fun. Strongly suggest the installation of a hot water pump to ensure water to the 1st and 2nd floor

A beautiful and well-appointed building with lovely facilities. The cost at $200 per night was only slightly more than a motel. The rooms were well-appointed, with lovely Linen duvet covers and cushions. Access to the verandah, complete with a table and chairs, was a bonus. Too cold for the pool, but what a setting.

We have no criticisms.

We loved the style and elegance of the hotel, the quality of the furnishings, and the excellent breakfast. It is the best hotel of its class that I've stayed in in Australia.

So comfortable and a beautiful room, great shower with beautiful products provided to use, comfortable bed & chairs to sit in, a lovely verandah/deck to sit as well. Terrific breakfast included and wonderful hosts. Excellent laundry service as well. Loved this place & will definitely be back next time Im up this way.

Great stay in Ballina! We originally booked for 1 night, loved the place, and extended for an extra night. Beautiful rooms, quiet location that is 5 minutes walk to the main street, friendly and welcoming hosts. Comfortable bed, large bathroom with quality shower products, and a continental breakfast daily. We hired the on-site e bikes and rode to Lennox Head, the scenic bike trail was beautiful. Loved it!

Our stay at the Manor House felt more akin to a feature film or a fever dream than a typical night in lodgings. From the seamless check in process to the sun-blessed evening upon the balcony we simply did not stop smiling. Our room was quite simply divine. Functional and ergonomic climate controls abounded. The sheets smelled as though they may have been purchased that very day. The television remote and all light/power sources functioned as you would demand in your own home. This manor is located in what I would term Ballina's bullseye. Walking distance to Mainstreet, the ocean and the Shawsy. The swimming pool, despite the frigid temperatures was immaculate, and towels were even located for guests nearby, dare they braved the icy dunk. Parking was exceptionally convenient. All foyers and stairways transported you to a yester place, and yet were maintained within the framework expected in modern five-star luxury. I ate the most delicious pear from the fruit bowl located near the entrance. If you are looking for an affordable, comfortable and beautiful place to stay in Ballina, don't bother looking for anywhere else. A special shout out to Hannah, and the mysterious Gersch, for making us feel so welcome, safe and thrilled during our time at the Manor House. An exemplary showcase of customer service. Thank you.

What a beautiful old property, full of character and lovingly maintained. Our huge room with ensuite had access to the wraparound balcony. Even though the room was large the RCAC quickly heated up the room. Bed was large and comfortable . We didnt eat in ( out of season) but my husband swam in the pool and said it was clean and a good size. Fullly enjoyed our stay . Recommend for people who really do not want to stay in a cookie cutter motel - this place has charm and character
