Ballina Manor Hotel
Review
Ballina Manor Hotel sits proudly in the heart of Ballina town, truly a welcoming base with a loyal team and even more loyal regulars. Rooms are modern, fresh, and quietly comfortable, with the little touches that make short breaks feel effortless. Step outside and you’re minutes from Mayo’s big hitters, Ceide Fields to the north, the famed Belleek Woods along the Moy, and Kilcullen’s Seaweed Baths just over in Enniscrone. From here, the rest of the county unfolds easily, whether you’re chasing coastal views, heritage sites, or a great pint after a day exploring. Service is where this hotel shines: friendly faces, easy smiles, and a “no problem” attitude that removes all the friction from travel. Whatever brings you to Mayo, you’ll feel at home here.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
The Ballina Manor Hotel serves comfort with a confident flourish. In the Shambles & Bentley Bars, the mood is easygoing and lively, perfect for a relaxed bite where well-executed pub staples meet smart, unfussy plates. Burgers arrive juicy and neatly stacked; salads are crisp and properly dressed; chips are the golden, can’t-stop-picking kind. Step up to the Ridgepool Restaurant and the tone turns a notch more refined without losing warmth. Here, sauces are glossy, seasoning is sure-footed, and plating is clean rather than fussy, food that respects classic flavours but isn’t afraid of a bright garnish or a citrus lift. Mornings bring hearty breakfasts; lunch is swift and satisfying; dinner never feels pressured, just polished. Whatever your appetite or pace, Ballina Manor proves a reliable choice.
