Having seen a number of roadhouses across the Nullarbor we were not expecting much. From the greeting from the very pleasant young lady on reception to our meal in the restaurant we were impressed. The room was clean and comfortable and the hotel obviously caters for construction workers in the area. The little museum attached to the hotel provides an... More

When I rate the property as average I am being generous. I could not say the room was poor but it was very basic.One must consider where one is in a huge country miles from anywhere. We had two cups and plastic spoons for our tea and coffee. No saucers provided. Don't expect shampoo or tissues in your room. At... More

Returning from our wonderful trip across Australia where we meet pleasant and helpful people the entire way we had the unpleasant experience of stopping at this roadhouse to give our 4 small children a break and some lunch. We fuelled our 4wd which isn't a inexpensive cost and proceeded to utilise one of the tables in the grounds, not being... More

We stayed just one night at this roadhouse motel as it was the only option in the area. The room was very basic with painted block walls and a basic en-suite bathroom. The room could have done with a new coat of paint especially on the woodwork. The room was very clean and so were the beds and linen. They... More

Very comfortable roadhouse - rooms are clean, air conditioned and comfortable. Was on the chilly side when we stayed in early March - extra blanket in the room wardrobe was handy. There is a nice pool on site which I'm sure would be a blessing in the height of summer. The restaurant food was exceptional - I have to agree... More

The Balladonia roadhouse is like an oasis in the middle of a lot of empty space; approximately 190 k east of Norseman with the nearest roadhouse 155 k further east it makes an ideal stopping point. We stopped there on our way over east & again on the return, both stays were pleasant. Check in was prompt and no unnecessary... More

As long as you have the right expectations for accommodation far away from everywhere, then you will not be disappointed. I stayed both ways (Syd - Per and return) and would stay again. Clean, air con, tv, swimming pool and a restaurant that serves good food

Stayed in a family motel room. Facilities where basic, but adequate, though I think it is overpriced for what you get. Pool was clean. Meals at the roadhouse are very nice, but again, quite expensive for what you get.

Rooms very simple - but comfortable and all we needed for two young kids and us. Simple playground for littlies. Restaurant/bar serves great food which was welcome at the end of a long days driving. If you want a cold beer wait until he bar opens - take always very expensive. A good start to the trip.

Travellers who are considering driving the Eyre Hwy should read on - this is easily the cleanest and best stopover motel on the 1200+ km stretch of road. It's in no way the ritz as they say but it provides the required nights stopover. The closest good accommodation west of this location is Kalgoorlie (200+ km) and east Ceduna (1000+km... More
