Location: proximity to Sovereign Hill is excellent. Room 6: our initial room and bed-lamps for both beds. Room 6 to 5: staff provided assistance moving to another room that had a working tv + given a bottle of wine for the inconvenience of having to relocate to another room. Room 5: room we transferred to had 2 separate bedrooms which was an upgrade for us.
Décor: old world feel created with dark furniture and warm lighting which created a welcoming ambience. Bathroom: low level light over vanity is welcomed, as most lights are blinding during the night + mirror height positioned to be suitable for tall and short people. Carport: Great to have the car under cover especially in winter. On site restaurant: Azzuri is excellent. Great food. Great ambience with wood fire going. I would definitely stay here again. We were there in winter so didn’t use the pool or gym. Very quiet. Great to have the car under cover and not have to scrape ice off in the morning.

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.

This hotel is an absolute hidden gem. I cannot believe what a great hotel it is. For families, it would have to be one of the best hotels that I have seen and such good value. The family room was large with 4 beds. There was a sitting area and kitchenette. The facilities though are the best part of this property. There is a free of charge laundry with washing powder, a games room, indoor tennis court, gym, sauna and incredible indoor heated pool and spa. Absolutely fantastic for families.
The room was amazing, bed super comfortable and bathroom clean and large, the location close to many shops.
I was unable to stay the full booking due to unforeseen events back in Mel and had to leave early, the hotel were very understanding and refunded the day I wouldn't be in Ballarat, they even posted a charger I left in the room back to me. Excellent Service! will recommend the hotel to others and stay when I go back to Ballarat.
Beautiful old-style hotel, redecorated and furnished to enhance its heritage atmosphere. Wonderful high ceilings and spacious rooms. The staff were cheerful and very helpful and the location close to restaurants and the Ballarat Art Gallery was ideal. We loved the grand staircase and the quirky "heritage" lift. It's a hotel with personality, very different from an anonymous motel.
Oscar’s is a beautiful boutique hotel located in the heart of Ballarat. All of the rooms are beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. The restaurant is quite large with a few different rooms to choose from, all which are bright and stylish. Staff are very friendly and accomodating and the food is fresh and delicious. If you are staying in Ballarat Oscar’s is the place to go!
Newly built, spacious and great location! Opposite is a fantastic restaurant which makes it easy for dinner option. Lovely Hampton’s style decor with modern appliances. The bathroom was a luxury escape, the heat lamp helped with warming the floor tiles on a cold night. Great air-conditioner/heater. Netflix in the room was a bonus.
It's a cheap motel that is very comfortable. The bed was extrememly comfy the room was big, and really clean. Like it's dated and the blinds are pretty dodgy and the furniture was threadbare, but if you get the bed right and the rooms clean then you can overlook a lot of things for $100 a night.
The hotel is simply superb in every way and rare to find, from the warm welcome we received, the breakfasts and the hospitality we were shown. The owners have created a paradise in what was just an old building. We would recommend Hotel Vera to anyone travelling to the Ballarat region.
The hotel matched my expectations for a "cheap & cheerful" motel. It was quiet, easy to find & in close walking distance to good restaurants.
The reception on arrival & departure was cheerful, welcoming & friendly.
I didn’t have breakfast at the hotel , I was very happy with the friendly warm greeting I received on arrival.
I will definitely stay there every time I need accommodation in Ballarat .
Highly recommend it
The owner was so thoughtful in setting up the home for a family with young kids. With toys and icy pops in the freezer as an extra treat, it was a wonderful home for my family to stay at.
Location is awesome, parking is great. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Room was very quiet, we were worried about noise from the hotel bar/nightclub but we heard absolutely nothing.
Spacious, handy kitchen for some simple family meals. Fresh towels/clean bins after our first night ( only stayed for 2 nights, most motels we stayed in didn't bother to check)
