Hotels - pub accommodation, and Hotel/Motels in the Ballina, Byron Bay, Tweed Heads, Lismore, Murwillumbah, Northern Rivers, Northern NSW, and Gold Coast and hinteland, QLD, Australia.
In Australia, hotels are licensed premises with at least one bar where liquor is served to the public without the need to purchase a meal or stay as a guest.
Often referred to as "pubs", they can be confusing for international visitors, who may expect resort-like accommodations. While some pubs do offer clean, comfortable, and budget-friendly lodging, others focus solely on food and drinks.
Hotel/Motels, on the other hand, provide both accommodation and meals, along with bar facilities.
A signature feature is the famous "Australian counter lunch"; a hearty midday meal served at the bar, featuring pub classics like schnitzel (schnitty), steak, or a meat pie, with chips and salad.
Many country pubs serve this substantial fare, and you'll often hear the challenge, "Bet you can't finish it easily!"
Another staple of many pubs, especially in regional areas, is live music, usually on Friday and Saturday nights. Sunday afternoons may offer relaxed garden or jam sessions, adding a laid-back, community feel.
All the pubs listed below, offer accommodation.
