WE'RE BACK! And better than ever! The 2022 floods devasted Lismore, since then we have done extensive renovations with a nice modern take.

Rooms looked nothing like was was advertised on bookings.com and stated they had restaurent onsite, which when I arrived I was told had been closed since the floods. so again false advertising.
The Lismore Wilson Motel is nestled at the foot of Girards Hill. The motel is styled to reflect the beautiful heritage homes in the area and has a lovely welcoming atmosphere..
Located 27 km from Big Prawn, Invercauld House offers an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony and free WiFi.

Very clean, modern room with a very comfortable bed. And quiet. The motel has beautiful gardens with lots of interesting old pieces of farm machinery and implements within the garden beds. There's also a nice, clean pool.
Alstonville Country Cottages feature panoramic views down the valley to the ocean. Facilities include an outdoor swimming pool and a barbecue area with a wood-fired pizza oven.

It felt right to spend a bit of money in Lismore because it was still reeling from the disastrous flood. It is very apparent that there is a strong community will to recover but it is also clearly a struggle.

There are some fantastic cafes open for business.
There are some fantastic cafes open for business. The food at Dark Horse Espresso was fabulous. The locals are absolutely amazing and Lismore deserves a visit. There were lots of fabulous clothes stores in town.
Another fabulous place to visit is the Common People Brewery at Bangalow.

I would caution travellers to Lismore that not everything is open but what is open again is great and worth supporting. I would particularly recommend The Sherwood . I was relieved that great acomodation was available and happily surprised at the ease of booking and great standard I experienced. My only feedback would be to chance the resturant bookings online because it is disappointing to book a table and go to the resturant to realise it's not open yet. Then it was late for alternatives for a meal on Sunday night in Lismore Central.

Beautiful countryside and views amazing.
Beautiful countryside and views amazing. Lots to do and see and great to see the town recovering slowly from the floods. Had great cider and beers at Two Mates Brewery and very tasty meal at MaryG's Hotel.
The Saturday farmers Market was full of lots of yummy food and goodies.
Attended the Lantern Parade which was a great celebration of hope for the town.
The roads are still being repaired in some places so drive to conditions.

The general feel is a mix of hippies and drug addicts, some of the roads are terrible with massive potholes everywhere, the driving and parking skills of locals is a concern, - the place seems to be nice enough in the main areas but i think some of the locals ruin it, at night could hear car burnouts in the wet all nights, (likely stolen cars) and you can sense its unsafe, even the police have massive trucks, and that was just the day. and the road surface, especially on some of the back streets and roads out of town are huge and would cause alot of damage, alot of the council parks and areas seem trashed and neglected, pretty much had enough of the place after one day and there isn't anything that would draw me back

The area around Lismore is quite picturesque.
The area around Lismore is quite picturesque. The minor roads are of questionable surface quality, but make for a good adventure bike riding experience. Lismore itself is perhaps not all that exciting, but is a good base from which to enjoy its surroundings.
It is a nice place. The gentleman who greeted me at the front was very professional and nice. The bed was very comfortable, the bathrooms were neat and a good size. I can't make comment on WiFi cause I didn't use it. They had breakfast available at the morning which was help yourself and they did the dishes as well. Honestly I tried to find one thing to drop it to a 9/10, but honestly couldn't fault anything. 10/10 would recommend and when staying in Lismore again, will book this place.
Fantastic spot and very reasonably priced. Became my favourite accommodation in Lismore after the first stay. Hosts are very welcoming, facilities are great, rooms are huge and all in all the house is a beautiful historic home that I would highly recommend - especially to those who like a bit of history and character in their accommodation and need a good night's rest. Will definitely come back.
We had an overnight stay at the Wilson Motel as it is situated close to relatives we were visiting. As the Wilson was affected by the 2022 Lismore floods, we were very fortunate that the Motel was open. Obviously renovations are on going, but we had a lovely comfortable room and bed, and the bathroom facilities were great. Thank you for a lovely stay, and a great breakfast.
Exceptionally friendly and warm hosts, including their cat Ollie. The room was spotlessly clean and had fresh fixtures and new and very comfortable bedding. Super fluffy and absorbent towels too. They are located a quick and easy drive from Lismore Base Hospital and a shopping centre with all the major stores. Highly recommend.
My stay was wonderful, host was an absolute gem. The location is very close to the main part of Lismore which was very convenient. Would definitely recommend this beautiful place and will be booking again.
Room and bathroom was immaculate. Staff was helpful. Wifi was good. The location was in Lismore, and that's an easy drive to the hinterlands and any an hour to byron.
Was impressed with the room for the price especially after staying at a hotel in Newcastle recently & it didn't have a tv,kettle or fridge. Would stay again
Travelled for a rugby festival to support the Lismore Rugby Club. The area experienced floods recently, so was expecting that local services were affected.
