The excellent restoration of this magnificent Victorian building shows how clever and considerate are the owners. They have incorporated luxury comfort without losing the features of the building, and the modern extension to the property blends seamlessly. Throughout the place are cosy reading nooks and a marvellous and eclectic selection of fabulous books, art and memorabilia, placed always to enhance the sense of design. The owners are warm and friendly and add to the overall sense of welcome and serenity. The weekend continental breakfast was excellent. Overall we felt a sense of calm in this lovely place.

I was thrilled that the begonias in the botanic gardens were still in full bloom ( mid April) . I was moved by the exhibit on the Eureka Stockage. I was impressed with the large number of elegant historic buildings in the city.

Very historic town and still retains lots of its original architecture.
I did run out of things to do so did travel to Daylesford for one day.
Otherwise, it is a nice place to visit, more than once, and does offer some lovely tourist spots.
The hotel gave me a free upgrade from a single room to a double Chinese Bridal Room. Beautifully fitted out with antique Chinese furniture and fittings. The whole hotel is wonderfully restored in period style. Breakfast excellent in the large covered atrium. Very convenient location in the centre of Ballarat, close to shops, art gallery, station etc.
the staff were amazing - I had had a fall the day before and the staff went above and beyond for my husband and young son while I was in hospital. when i came out and back to hotel they were accomodating with allowing food service in our room. this really helped reduce the stress during this time Thankyou
Great room; quiet; spa was excellent; bed very comfortable. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend this hotel for short or longer stays. have booked again for this coming Friday and need to do some business in Ballarat on Saturday
Room was good sized for our family of four. Heating was on in the room when we arrived which was nice. Relatively clean and daily room service was provided which was handy. The kids loved the large bathtub. Good location to walk into the CBD.
It's a proper old-fashioned hotel that's been very nicely renovated to provide all the modern conveniences. Loved the location and the vibe. There's a lift, but I always used the stairs because the staircase is just so cool!
Really comfortable bed, the room was decently sized and the staff were really lovely upon arrival. The car park was convenient and the entry system from hotel to sovereign hill was amazing, it felt like we were VIP's.
Very clean & tidy. Bed was large & comfortable. Bathroom large & clean. Staff were very friendly at check out, querying how well we slept. The location of the hotel is very convenient - we could walk everywhere.
House at no. 10 is a fabulous gem right in the centre of Ballarat town. It was meticulously clean and very thoughtfully appointed for guests. We stayed for one night only and wished we could have stayed longer!
The room was very spacious and the bed very comfortable.We really enjoyed the location of the hotel as we could walk around town.We ate in the hotel restaurant and the food was great and the service excellent.
Excellent location. Nice & quite hotel. Close to all that you would require. Art Gallery across the stree. Short walk to many restaurants & shopping houses. We walked from the Railway Station with ease.
Location excellent. All staff were friendly & helpful! Food at restaurant was excellent! Ambience of hotel was excellent. We would definitely stay at Oscars next time we come to Ballarat.
Location is awesome, parking is great. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Room was very quiet, we were worried about noise from the hotel bar/nightclub but we heard absolutely nothing.
The Barkly is my 'go to' hotel when in Ballarat, which is approximately every 2-3 months! Great value and location, comfortable beds and spotlessly clean - what more could you ask?
