We had a fantastic 2 night stay. The staff were very helpful and kind. To the security guard that checked us in after hours, to the receptionists (dealt with 3), to the breakfast staff and chef! We have dietary requirements and they went above and beyond for us. Very appreciative. The room was very very comfortable. Loved it! Will return!

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, the room was very clean, spacious and bed really comfortable . The bathroom basin had a crack through it which was a shame but this is an old property and just needs some love. The courtyard off our room had tall weeds and broken pickets on the fence which was disappointing it would have been nice to sit out there and enjoy the view . Having said that it was really comfortable, well located and we would stay again.

Access to sovereign hill is just a short walk away. Relatively quiet grounds with private parking. Room itself was small and not worth the money. It's in dire need of a renovation. The furniture desperately needs replacing. The tables were scratched and the chairs were stained. Bathroom was relatively clean.

The reception staff were friendly and helpful. The Governor's room we stayed in well facilitated. Unfortunately, we ould not get the split system to work,which proved not much of an issue as the bed was worm and cosy. The overhead light fixture needing a goo dusting. I would recommend this accomodation.

My family have stayed here a few times and have always enjoyed our stay. Where our rooms where this time was completely different where we've been any other time. It was a bit of a walk to the accommodation from the car and we had to use quite a few stairs. I said on arrival this wasn't ideal as I had a disability but wasn't offered any change. The young man was kind and showed on a map where to go and said it wasn't far, wasn't too many steps etc but...it was for me. The property website wasn't available and we had to go through Wotif so keep in mind to always put you need a ground floor if you need. It made it very difficult for me. Also, breakfast is only available on school holidays now. That was a little disappointing.

This is a favourite of ours when we visit Ballarat. The hotel in lovely, using old facades with modern interiors to draw an inference to times gone by. The staff at check-in were lovely and were helpful in letting us know about local haunts and things to do. This hotel is great if you have kids, the rooms are spacious and there is a large grassed area for them to run around.
