The Menzies was dated but very comfortable and clean. A fridge, microwave and kitchen utensils were provided. Bathroom was spacious and clean as was the room. Bed was comfortable. Located in a very central position, walking distance to Coles, MacDonalds and restaurants. The manager was not going to be able to be at reception on my arrival and so I received a detailed message of where to get the key and the code to the room and room number earlier in the day. Would definitely stay at The Menzies again.

No concerns at all.

Stayed in the loft room, kitchenette downstairs, bedroom upstairs and large bathroom, great shower, small balcony, tv upstairs and downstairs. Hotel is very quiet but can hear the odd train toot now and then. 2 split system aircon heats up the room well. Stayed here before as location is very good. Great pub meals nearby at table 48, Munster arms (both 1 min walk) and found rusty spud 1 block away for great baked potatoes. Note Macca's is also a short walk. Easy 10 minutes walk to main train station and a Saturday ride into Melbourne was < $8 return. Cheaper than petrol, parking and the stress. Was scheduled roughly hourly and takes under 90 mins to southern cross station.

Shower water overflows outside of shower, pools then drains via a small drain, but makes tiled floor wet.

Very clean. Quality bed. Was quiet. Great location, nice bathroom, good TV. Nice carpet. Kitchenette was very basic, but good. Top 3 motels I've ever been in.

I came in late, in a loud car and had trouble seeing the room numbers as I drove around. It was because it was full and all the other cars were in the way. I tried to come in as quiet as I could, but struggling to see the room numbers in the dark, with the other cars in the way, made me a bit louder than I needed to be. It's a very small thing and I think that it would rarely be an issue.

The room was very clean on arrival, and surprisingly large, The bathroom was extra large also, with a walk in shower. The bed is very comfortable, and the facilities (kettle etc) are in great condition. Location is just outside the CBD (a short walk) and there is a McD's a 3 minute walk down the hill. Off street parking is available, but not necessarily adjacent to your room. All in all, good value, clean, comfortable and quiet.

We had a separate lounge and kitchen. Had everything we needed. It was absolutely perfect. Lovely huge bed. So comfy. Very clean. No low chairs. Seating was very good. It was very quiet. No stairs. Car parking at door. Huge desk and chair to do a bit of work at. Powerpoint locations were important to us, and were just where we needed them. Electric blanket on the bed was so nice. Nice sized table to eat meals. Walk to food outlets and supermarket. You could not fault it. The staff were helpful and very nice and friendly. We will definitely stay there again and recommend it to family/friends.

There was nothing we did not like.

Comfy and clean room. A full-size fridge and a kitchenette (toaster, kettle, microwave, some utensils). We were passing through Ballarat, so only had the overnight stay. There were a few restaurants/dining options nearby, within easy walking distance.

This is quite dangerous and needs to be fixed: the bathroom vanity taps are incorrectly connected in the unit we stayed in. Unit 9. Hot water - and it's very hot! - coming from the cold tap, and cold water from the hot tap.

Central location, good communication regarding check-in/check-out and clean, pretty comfortable facilities.

The bed was ok, but not super comfortable. One of the chairs had a split leg, so when my husband sat on it he fell to the floor - we brought it to the attention of one of the cleaners, so hopefully the chair has been replaced now. It was handy to have toiletries provided, but having individual packages rather than a bulk pack/dispenser is not very eco-friendly these days - this was the first time in some time that we have stayed somewhere with individual toiletries provided in plastic packaging.

Easy check in and check out. Very comfortable stay in a spacious room. Towels changed daily. Great central location. Would definitely stay again.

Just that a staff member entered the room on the day of checkout before we were ready to vacate. It was at around 8.30 when checkout was at 10am. Not sure what he wanted. He was either asking about the key card or our car.

This motel is well located with all you need within walking distance. The room was large with a king size bed, kitchenette, lounge room & big shower & bathroom. It was clean & the towels were replaced daily. This place is everything you expect from a moderately priced hotel. I have no real complaints & would be happy to recommend to any other traveler who is looking for a comfy room at a good price.

Honestly, it exceeded my expectations. I was expecting a room, but it turned out to be a suite with a kitchen and all the necessary kitchen tools, such as a toaster, tea packages, a fridge, two TVs (one in the lobby and one in the bedroom), a private spa, and more. The room, towels, bed, and linen were all quite clean. The hotel is well-located in Ballarat and easily accessible, especially at night when you want to have a drink at bars. You can walk to the hotel without concerns about breaking any driving rules. Parking the car in front of the room made it easy to move our belongings in and out. I highly recommend this hotel, and if I plan another trip to Ballarat, I will definitely choose the same hotel for my stay.

The only negative point was the unavailability of breakfast in the hotel, however was not a big deal.
