Hotel Vera Ballarat Hotels in Ballarat

Hotel Vera Ballarat

"This long-overdue review of a most praiseworthy boutique hotel is actually kick-started by a newspaper review I read the other day which (with full acknowledgement to the writer in ‘Escape’!) said it ‘is one of the loveliest hotels I’ve stayed at in Australia’…… that writer took the words out of my mouth! We had the Kingston Suite for an couple of nights and it was a feast for the eyes…. except the word ‘feast’ probably sounds too big and bold considering the serenity of the room and its sublimely tasteful and calm-inducing decor. We actually liked their towel choice so much we took ourselves to Sheridan whilst in Ballarat and bought ourselves copycat towels to take home! We’d also have liked to have taken home the luxe linen and their stunning hallway table…..indeed we could actually just transplant the whole hotel across to Adelaide to fill the gap we definitely have in the SA market for such superb small-scale hotels with so much comfort and warm welcoming hosts. Also, breakfast could not have been more perfectly assembled and portioned. Very well done!"

"The landlord is from Northeast China and has been in Australia for many years. He runs this yard after retirement. It is very tidy. We were delayed on the road that day and arrived at nearly 10 o'clock in the evening. The landlord Leon had been waiting for us in the living room. When he saw our car entering the yard, he greeted us through the window and welcomed us. It felt like home!"

Mid City Ballarat ★★★
"Appreciated the 24 reception services. It is helpful when we travel by public  transport as we can’t control the time.  Very happy with the location as it was very convenient. Breakfast quite healthy. Clean rooms.  Having warm globes and an exhaust fan in the bathroom would be useful ."
