I loved how one of the receptionists told me I had a strong California accent. I told her someone in Melbourne told me she thought I sounded like I was from New York City. "Don't insult me!" she retorted. I laughed. I grew up in L.A. She nailed it.

Whilst there is noise on a friday night from a neighbouring nightclub, it was just bass which was quite peaceful. You will be impressed by there use of glass for security and aesthetic pleasure of the old building. I stayed with my 2 teenage sons and would do so again. Easy walk to great cafes and right in the heart of town. Even snuck down to the bar for a drink, and in the morning sat out on the balcony.

I always enjoy Sovereign Hill I took my grandchildren there recently. They loved panning for Gold . They are 5 yrs and 10 yrs .i love going even on my own it’s a lovely day out . You can dress up in old world clothes . Have your photos taken which I did with my grandchildren, I bought them some little gold bottles of gold to take home. They were very excited it is a lot of fun for children or adults. Lots to enjoy for everyone.
Great town, lots of great old buildings, antique shops and second hand places to shop, if you're into that sort of thing. Can get a tad chilly though so if your planning a trip around winter, make sure you rug up. Sovereign Hill is a must see so plan a day to hang out there, lots to see and do. Overall Ballarat is a great place to visit for sure.
Always LOVE returning to Ballarat as it was my place of birth and brings back so many memories, heaps to see and a great locality for a home base to travel around the area to Castlemaine, Maldon, Creswick, Daylesford etc and all of the other wonderful country towns. The botanical gardens are lovely to visit, as well as viewing the abundance of gorgeous period homes street after street all beautifully restored! Just love it!
We went to Ballarat for the Heritage Festival and had a great time. There were lots of free events such as the car shows and several art galleries. The old bicycle ride through the streets was a fabulous spectacle. There are plenty of great food and drink options throughout the city. We found it difficult to find somewhere for Sunday brunch as it was a beautiful day and everywhere was full. I would highly recommend booking for brunch at your favourite spot before hand.
Ballarat is an impressive country town. It is steeped in history, has a Great Lake and some impressive tourist attractions. It is only 90 minutes from Melbourne and perfect for a weekend or short holiday break.
I worked in Ballarat in the health industry for 14 yrs on and off as a consultant. I was meeting up with Colleagues,looking forward to staying at a reputable hotel. Very disappointed with the stay , will not be staying at the Mercure again.I went to all the places I knew for meals with friends.
Ballarat
Wonderful place to stay, everything was a lot better than I expected! The experience was very relaxing and comfortable for myself and family, especially that bed! The room felt like we were in a hotel, which is a rarity! The bathroom was also very luxurious! The room was very clean and beautifully set up for all guests! I do 100% recommend this motor in to anyone I know and not know! We will definitely be back to stay here again in the near future. Thank you.
Everything was perfect. This is a beautifully restored 19th century hotel with high ceilings. Rooms are comfortable and well appointed. At check in we were offered valet parking so we didn’t have to worry about our car. We had an excellent evening meal in the restaurant and the buffet breakfast in the morning was superb - the presentation was exceptional. I’d like an excuse to return to Ballarat just to stay here again.
The room was fine. The wifi was pretty good. The TV in the room was really good, and the bathrooms, though shared, were obviously new and very good. There are good supermarkets within 5mins walk and a shopping area in 10mins walk. It was a very reasonable price, despite the "don't like" points below. I have scored this hotel in light of "value for money", given that it was very cheap.
Location was very good although getting to our room on 2nd floor was challenging, narrow corridors and two separate entrances to negotiate. Place advertised free foxtel sport and in house movies. Neither were available on our stay, Person came and looked and left, Never saw them again. it appeared that the place was operated from the hotel next door and not our location..
Ballarat
This was great fun for kids, the fact that you have access to the whole park after hours and before it opens its amazing! Kids couldn’t feel more special about it! The suite was good though dont think this is a luxury hotel, the rooms are average at best the decor is cute beds are ok though bathrooms need improvement.
Ballarat
The house was immaculate. Beautifully appointed and the complementary breakfast basket was just perfect. The information about the house and the things to do around Ballarat was extensive and helpful. We had a lovely relaxing time. The kitchen was perfect so we decided to cook dinner one night rather than eat out.
Ballarat
The hotel was in a good spot, just outside the town center so close to everything and really close to Sovereign Hill! The bed and bath linen was very clean and they offered daily housekeeping. The pool area was great but maintenance is required on the structure. The owners were very lovely and helpful.
The hotel was very centrally located. I could easily walk everywhere I wanted to go during this short trip to Ballarat. The TV was a very good size and the heat worked a treat. The bed was very comfortable. The buffet breakfast was well catered and replenished when needed.
Ballarat
The manager was so great with communication before we arrived as well as during our stay. We felt so welcome and extra towels were provided so the kids could go for a swim. The beds were super comfortable and I don't recall a better night sleep in a hotel!
Ballarat
So close to Sovereign Hill and all that Ballarat has to offer . Check in was quick and easy, the lady in reception was lovely and very helpful . The apartment had everything you need ... would definitely recommend to family and friends
The hotel was really lovely, with its beautiful classic style but with modern comforts. The breakfast was also delicious and staff friendly and helpful. It was conveniently located in the centre of town.

Stayed 3 nights with my family and it was awesome. The park and the cabin we stayed in was exceptionally clean and well maintained. So many things for kids to do there as well. Can't wait to go back and stay again.

Stayed in 2 cabins with extended family and all very happy with accommodation. Our grandkids visited while we were staying and enjoyed the jumping pillow and park!
The staff were super friendly, location is great and it was a quiet stay
