Oi, we had a right splendid stay! The room was massive, and can't forget the comfy beds. Just steps from the lake for a stroll, but the heating went a bit dodgy on us. Still, we’re chuffed to bits!

The spacious Executive Twin Room provided excellent heating and electric blankets, ideal for the chilly winter evenings. Enjoying fresh Nespresso coffee added a nice touch to our stay. Proximity to hospitals and the assurance of easy pram access made our family visit smooth. Although there was no breakfast available, the nearby pub offered a charming dining experience with a lovely meal. A few minor inconveniences affected the experience, yet the overall cleanliness and attention to detail were commendable.

impressive stay but minor maintenance issue

Our stay included a fantastic room upgrade, which was a delightful surprise after a long journey. The room was spacious, with cozy beds and a fresh scent upon arrival. The cleanliness was outstanding. every corner was spotless, surpassing my high standards. the quick check-in made the process effortless despite our tiredness. We also enjoyed a delicious meal at the nearby pub, which complemented our stay nicely.

Unfortunately, there was a minor maintenance issue in the room, which I hope will be addressed.

Family with children budget stay

The location is solid , just a short walk to the lake and we felt safe letting the kids roam a bit. The room was clean and had ample space for all of us , which is rare these days.

Not exactly a steal , but still acceptable for what you get.

Charming spot! Spacious room with comfy beds, all near the lake and a cracking pub next door. Perfect for a short stay.

Heating could use a revamp—my electric blanket had a rebellious streak. Shower door didn’t quite understand its role either!

perfect location

Had a great time here with friends! The place was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed good food at the pub next door. The location was perfect for our visit to Lake Wendouree and the Ballarat Golf Club. Book ahead, as it gets busy, but it's worth it!
