“Excellent and extremely accommodating”
I can’t rate them highly enough. Martin was wonderful to deal with. It was a Monday night and as it was quiet he was lovely enough to give us a room upgrade where we had both park and street views. Double glazed windows and we slept perfectly. We will definitely return and try out the restaurant as that looked lovely to dinner in. The pawn star martini was top notch!

“Stylish, well-located and pretty luxurious for an indulgent Bendigo night or two.”
Location was excellent (walkable!) and the hotel - a former bank - is very gracious and well appointed. The room was on an upper floor, very spacious, lots of art and tasteful decor, with access to a balcony and a lovely, leafy outlook. The Terrae restaurant at ground level was actually outstanding. Probably the best meal we had on that road trip, including Melbourne. The wine bar across the road was also excellent.

“One of the most beautiful hotels in Victoria, a real gem.”
As a former bank during the gold rush days, the building offers a taste of history, while also being extremely comfortable and welcoming

“Memorable stay, would definitely return.”
Absolutely beautiful room. After travelling other parts of the world this was right up there with the best. Most importantly to me the cleanliness was second to none. The room had everything we wanted & needed. It pays to pay a little more for quality.

“It was a wonderful destination for a couples night away in the heart of Bendigo.”
The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating for our needs. This was especially helpful as we came during a major event and all the streets were closed. They personally came out and oversaw our escourting onto the premises.
