The room was good, breakfast pretty bad, tea and toast was the only good thing there. Bed was comfortable are the room was quiet. Would look for other alternatives next time.

Quest Ballarat
Clean rooms. The room I was in the bathroom was nothing special but you have everything you need in the room. I rate it, I’ll be going back. Parking on site is not ideal. It’s shared with the apartments out back, so first in first served otherwise street parking is your only option.

The Provincial Boutique Hotel
Clean, spacious, comfortable amenities in a beautiful boutique style hotel. We both had the best sleep we've had in years and the spa bath was the extra touch of relaxation needed for a night away. Will definitely be back!
