    An amazing, beautiful old town.

    An amazing, beautiful old town. Full of history and lots to do. Wonderful shops, great dining and cafes. Beautiful gardens to visit and the lake is fantastic for a morning or afternoon walk. Many gorgeous hotels.

    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.

    Lovely historic town. I came for the marathon this trip and only stayed the weekend. Have been before many years ago and was reminded what a terrific place Ballarat is. I'll be staying longer next time

    Sovereign Hill was excellent, well worth it. More information for travellers who come on the train would be useful, about public transport Food good in Nolan’s, but quiet, excellent meal in Meigas Spanish

    this is a perfect B & B for a small family with a large Queen in one room and single beds in the other - Small but efficient kitchen with everything you could want. Brekky provisions included quality bread, bacon & eggs. Mary Anne and Richard made us both very welcome. Stunning old home in a leafy street with shaded parking. The unit is at the front of the private house at the back. Ridiculously cheap tariff for this place - I couldn't believe the value for money.

    The staff were very friendly and helpful, the location has a great view and it's pretty cool to be able to stay in a castle! Even though the castle was closed when we visited we were allowed to look around and visit the friendly sheep and goat for pats. The cost to stay here was cheap and a great option as something a bit different from a hotel. The room was very comfortable and had everything you need for a short stay.

    We stayed 9 nights, and the location was easily accessible to Ballarat services as well as major tourist attractions. The house was clean, new, and important for us (from QLD) had great central heating throughout. There was a welcome basket of goodies waiting on arrival. There was one minor issue regarding the garage door (our fault) where we emailed the owners, and they responded promptly and helpfully.

    A large Motel right next to the Eureka Centre at Ballarat. Large Comfortable rooms and stocked with all the usual requirements. I think that this place has had an upgrade. It shows and is all the better for it. No cheap Motels in Ballarat (that are livable anyway) but this one stacks up well against the others. Fantastic location for historic touring.

    I was upgraded to a family room which was quite large and had a queen bed and a full bed. The bathroom had just been upgraded so very large, modern, walk in shower with plenty of hot water, comfortable bed. In this price range the motel is a good value.
