Secure off-street parking was a big plus for us. Breakfast at The Lane, which was linked to the Quality Inn, was very good. The room itself, which comfortably slept three adults, was of a high standard. We did feel that the room was a bit over-priced for the area, but we had little choice as there was a big event... More

I recently stayed at the Lydiard while on tour around Australia and the room was just beautiful. One of the nicest I've stayed in across the country. It was quiet and cosy and very well designed and in a perfect location. Trevor at reception was very helpful and assisted with helping me connect to the internet, providing an ethernet cable... More

You enter the front door straight into the Gaming Room - the usual low-class Pokie Hall. However, go upstairs and it's a different world. Large, recently renovated rooms that are modern and comfortable. Staff friendly and attentive. Thanks to the usual airline delays, we arrived quite late and we phoned ahead to let them know. They kept the kitchen open... More

I recently stayed at the Quality Inn Heritage on Lydiard on a work trip. I was in a party of 8 and we were put into three heritage suites and five standard motel rooms at the rear of the property. On check in, I inquired at the front desk if all of the rooms were together. I received the answer... More

We discovered this wonderful hotel on the Internet and decided this was the one for us and we were not disappointed. Our room had two windows overlooking the wonderful buildings in Lydiard Street, and it was very very quite, very cool, and no noise from the street and no door closing noises which can be annoying in some hotels. The... More

The central location was convenient and made it easy for us to not have to use the car too often. The Laneway is only 2 feet and a heartbeat away - and the charge-back facility is very handy. The staff on check-in were welcoming and pleasant.......... a godsend after spending 4.5 hours in the car on the way there. Will... More

Although the rooms were modern and not heritage, it is an excellent place to stay. We stayed here 5 nights and were able to securely park the car, and walk to many of Ballarat's dining and drinking locations. As it is linked to the George, breakfast is available in the Lane restaurant, and meals can be charged back to your... More

The only thing heritage about our room was the name of the hotel, it was a pleasant enough for the money modern box. The overwhelming smell of cheap disinfectant put us off at first but the room was very clean, you have to be pretty nimble to climb into the shower over the bath but the shower was good and... More

We (family with kids 15/19) stayed for two nights on a recent visit to see Sovereign Hill. We booked a 2 bedroom apartment and were pleasantly surprised to find a modern, well equipped room behind the old facade. Service was great, with staff allowing us to park in the secure car park around the back whilst our room was prepared... More
