Very noisy. Footsteps and running at 6am in the morning on top of our room. Also at night near our window there is a balcony and people talking loud.

Poor

Food was poor, customer service took forever and was poor. Beds were terrible. Biggest highlight was waking up in the morning to leave.

Staff from managers down don’t care about patrons with physical limitations. I would not recommend!!

The decor was great. And the coffee and location.

No care or consideration for handicapped or mobility impaired patrons. The only door from the car pack to the hotel was even locked on evening and the staff were laughing at my husband trying to get in. On check out I asked to speak to the manager, he wasn’t in yet and I was told he would call. Over 4 days latter and no call.

Beautiful hotel and very historic

The ambiance of the hotel, beautiful, bed was comfortable . We were originally placed in twin room but asked for a double bed and we were kindly placed in a king room, which we really appreciated after 60 years married we much prefer to sleep together.

It would have been better to have had a cupboard in the bathroom for toiletries and a case rack to put your cases on to unpack. The kettle had to be boiled on the tiny shelf in bathroom, no outlet to plug into in bedroom.

A comfortable stay.

Restaurant was very good, staff were excellent, beautiful historic building, love the original lift. Bathroom was very good

Could do with a lamp on both sides of bed, some more power points instead of a power board hanging from the tv, somewhere to put the suitcase would be convenient, larger tv, but these a small gripes.

Total surprise.

What a surprise. Landing in this hotel you will land smack bang in the middle to a history time capsule. Must be seen to be believed. Staying here really bring the history of the town alive today. Do the town read and walk history guide. There’s one for the statues and one for the buildings.

Restaurant staff who booked us in after 6pm gave us incorrect advice on the parking. Told us street parking was free to 9:30 am and the had 2 hours free. Thankfully we checked the signage. My fault… I didn’t notice a check in time. Maybe a checklist with up to date information for non-reception receiving guests after hours will help

Rather disappointing. But staff were delightful

The antiquated lift really is a pain in the but. Totally understand idea of maintaining a 19the century atmosphere but that is ruined by the Pokies. I am not sure what you really are trying to achieve. my wife really did find that lift harf work.

heart od Ballarat and full of history

beautiful historical building and true to its heritage. great location for exploring Ballarat. very central

a bath with no bath salts a shower with no shower gel sounds like a first world problem but that was $250 a night in regional Victoria

There have been so much better stays for lesser money.

That it was a historical property.

It was overpriced for the kind of rooms and the condition of the room.
