    Ballarat is terrific.

    Ballarat is terrific. Full of history, culture and shopping. Lake Wendouree and the Botanic gardens are always a delight. Lunch at Craigs Hotel Atrium was very special and a good price. The Gallery always has something new to see as the exhibits change often. Eureka Stockade museum is a really good exhibition and tells the story of the Rebellion. The King Bakery on Sturt street has THE BEST vanilla slices and meat pies. Yellow Espresso next door does a great coffee too. Op shops are well situated. Messer & Opie is a really nice Men's & Women's clothing shop in the Bridge street Mall. Although Ballarat is more hilly than you'd think walking around the area is still easy.

    I would have liked to have walked in the downtown area but I didn't know how to pay for parking. The main purpose of being in Ballarat was to visit Sovereign Hill which we could have spent so much more time at. This was better than we had expected. Friendly staff, great performances and there was a feeling of going back to different times in history.

    Ballarat is a historical gem, it reeks of history everywhere you go and is easy to get around. The restaurants, cafes, pubs and people we met were all great. We have been several times now and we will go back as the region has plenty to offer . If you go in winter, rug up.

    I was thrilled that the begonias in the botanic gardens were still in full bloom ( mid April) . I was moved by the exhibit on the Eureka Stockage. I was impressed with the large number of elegant historic buildings in the city.

    Excellent location in the heart of Ballarat, only a few minutes walk from the train station and surrounded by many great choices for delicious meals. The Ballarat Art Gallery is just across the street from the hotel. The hotel room was warm, comfortable, and clean, and the hot water pressure in the shower was very good. The reception staff were friendly and welcoming.

    I had to come to Ballarat to care for a very very sick family member, and the staff have fallen over themselves to help me in any way they can. And if you’re up here for a holiday, the location is epic - right across the road from Soverign Hill. The spa baths are the biggest I have come across in a hotel bathroom 👌🏼great place - highly recommend.

    Quirky historical hotel in the middle of Ballarat. Bed was reasonable comfortable and you could open the doors to get some air! Parking was available either on the street or around the back. Place is like a rabbit Warren with an interesting history.
