We checked in to this hotel when looking for a room at last minute and all others in Ballarat were booked out (should have known by this fact alone). The outside looks like a gaol and the rooms are REALLY old and tired. The front desk staff were a little disinterested also. I would not stay here again, even in... More

The front desk staff were very friendly and polite. So the first impression was very good. I was surprised at how large the room was. The style of the building is indeed dated, but the rooms are very clean and the bed was comfy. I don't go away to watch TV, but it is nice to have a reasonably sized... More

Comfort Inn Bell Tower? NO Comfort Inn Smell Tower. Asked for non smoking room but as soon as we walked in the door it clearly was not. Unfortunately we thought it was probably the best of what was left in town that night as the town was very busy - should have booked ahead More
