A massive plus for this Hotel is the outlook and situation. We always love the views, whatever the weather, the operation of the little ferry across to Lismore. The food was excellent, as usual, although a bit pricey but really worth it for the staff interaction, and views out from the dining room. Cheers Phil

The Complete Hotel

The Pierhouse is a hotel that demonstrates superb, uber-friendly customer service from the time you check in until the point of leaving. A primarily Sea Food restaurant is fabulous.
