Richard is the host of this lovely property right on the High Street just a short walk to the town centre. We stayed in the Blacksmith’s Room – a spacious studio with a well-equipped kitchenette, bathroom and double bed. The breakfast provisions included bread, a selection of Beerenberg jams, butter, cereals and milk for breakfast. We found the bed a little bit too soft but otherwise we really loved our stay here. Richard was super friendly and helpful and we loved the quality wooden furniture and cabinets and monogrammed linen.

Room Tip: Look for sign on the left (when coming from Melbourne) it’s small and easily missed.

Did Christmas eve and day here and loved it. All mod cons but with a nice period feel due to the fittings. Simple but sufficient breakfast and ideal location on the High St. Made the visit to family that little better.

This property is located in the main street, on the fringe of the CBD and practically across the road from the city park/footy ground. It's easy to find and there is parking at the back, accessed from the next street. The room itself was a private one at the back of a residence with its own access. It's quite large, solidly built, quiet and comfortable - especially the bed - with a couple of nice armchairs and a small kitchen with microwave but no stove. The decor is a bit eccentric but certainly not offensive. The landlord let me in when I arrived and didn't bother me thereafter, and I didn't bother him.
So nothing really to complain about, and I'd have given it four points but for one matter. The Booking.com blurb promised "a memorable breakfast", or words to that effect, which I took in the absence of any information to the contrary to mean, at the very least, a cooked one (which is what I'm old-fashioned enough to expect anyhow of any place that calls itself a B&B). For that reason I was happy to pay a few dollars more than I would have for other comparable accommodation in Maryborough. But it turned out to be just the ordinary Wettex-and-Weeties kind that you'd expect of a basic motel - the packaged spreads were admittedly a tad more upmarket than you'd find in an average motel and came in jars rather than blisters, but the cereals were the basic Kelloggs standards and inedible to adults, and there was no facility to make coffee. It didn't actually bother me all that much, but you need to bear it in mind - especially as there appears to be nowhere in central Maryborough that offers food of any quality, even for breakfast. And it did rather jaundice my opinion of the value I got for my money.
Speaking more generally, I wouldn't recommend Maryborough as a destination. Practically every other town in the Goldfields has gone through a spectacular gourmet revival, but Maryborough appears to have been totally bypassed and remains just an ordinary blokey rural service town, a bit like a shrunken version of Bundaberg. As already mentioned, nowhere in the main street offered anything worthwhile in the way of dinner. The one attraction that makes it worth a stop is the wonderful heritage railway station, even if hardly any trains pass through any more; the lady who runs the concession for the old refreshment rooms is making an effort, and is probably your best bet for a meal (about 15 minutes' walk from the main street), but I noticed the business is now up for sale.

This would have to be one of the best accomodations and affordable that I have ever stayed in. The Staff were so friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this without a doubt. Very short walk to shops, local hospital on your door step, heaps of free parking and some great hotels for meals within a block of accommodation. I would give this unit a 4 star rating

The whole place was just immaculate. Clean, well presented, everything you would expect was there. We have no complains at all. Just look at the pictures of the place and that is what you get. Breakfast is included and the cupboards stock all the crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils. It has a quite relaxed atmosphere and you can easily prepare you own meals there if wanted. We will be back next time, when we visit Maryborough.

This was a nice place to stay. Well appointed, roomy and reasonably quiet on the Main Street but away from the hustle and bustle of traffic. Continental breakfast was handy to get up and going for days travel. Wish we could have stayed longer, but one night stay was handy for travelling through.
