Fantastic Lismore Motel
We had a lovely comfortable stay at Lismore Gateway Motel. The Motel is very well located, close to the centre of town, easy to find and had undercover parking. The staff were helpful and friendly. Its a new Motel with very well maintained gardens and pool.

Excellent service from John at reception was helpful and offered a number of suggestions. I stayed two nights and mostly walked to everything I needed to attend. The Lismore Gateway Motel was a real find that I wasn't expecting.

Top quality accommodation, but you pay accordingly
Definitely the best place to stay when work is paying.
But every place is expensive in Lismore.
