We were greeted by a lovely staff member, who was most friendly, professional & helpful. It was a warm day & the air-conditioning was on in our room, which we appreciated. The room was very comfortable & had everything we needed.

There was a clump of blonde hair on the bathroom floor, neither my partner nor I have blonde hair. There were renovations going on in a building next door.

Modern room, excellent lighting, really quiet at night, good air con, big shower with good pressure, comfy bed, Netflix and YouTube on TV using your own account, excellent location

Heavy doona too hot, needed the air con on all night (I like that anyway but some don't). Building a large apartment block behind the hotel and the work might be loud during the day and start early

Good walking distance to Sturt st shops and restaurants. The rooms are very spacious, comfortable and clean. The staff were friendly. The parking was not enough for all of the guests, especially as there were many trades/government departments staff and cars. Be prepared to have to park in the street which is not ideal.

Parking was not sufficient for all guests. Perhaps you should limit the number of cars for each room.

The Ballarat Quest is in an ideal location. Walking distance to Sturt Street's shops, cafes and restaurants. A very comfortable room for one person and good facilities. I only stayed one night but could have easily stayed longer.

The building works out the back started up at 7.00am on the dot on Saturday morning which is out of the hands of the Quest. Other than the noise everything else was good and very presentable.

Proximity to hospital and cafes, comfortable bed, good linen. Very obliging staff.

Insufficient sound baffling between our studio apartment and the adjoining apartment. Voices clearly carry through the interconnecting door and/or wall even though the guests were not unreasonable. Seating not great, one chair particularly hard.

Location for White Night (Sturt St) was excellent. Easy walk from the station. Handy for restaurants etc. Bed was very comfy. Nice view of Ballarat (& White Night lasers). Shower good although bath was a bit small. Nice toiletries. Quiet at night (after WN finished!).

Lift a little slow 🐌 but stairs were carpeted and easy to go down. Slight 'cooking smell' in apartment but not terrible.

Close to our venue for a long awaited 30-year reunion from University years, clean and spacious rooms, easy check in and check out process

Car parking onsite limited due to current construction projects, but this should be okay in future once works are complete

The place has a great location, and amenities, but it wasn´t the most clean Quest that I have stayed and the light coming through the curtains at night was a very bad. My room at the back had that light he whole night,- not completely dark as it is needed for a good rest and my son didn´t sleep well neither did I. Car park is great and the staff is friendly.

I didn´t like the light coming through the curtains the whole night. We didn´t have a good sleep - which is the basic need in the hotel. And some people didn´t make silence outside in the car parking too. That wasn´t the most quiet Quest that we stayed.

The room was available when everything else in Ballarat was booked out. Adequate for my needs but pricier than I would like. Close to the Main Street where I could get a meal.

Power off on some lights but quickly fixed when reported. I have already done one survey - why am I doing a second?

Lovely service. Woman on reception was lovely and went out of her way to help after explaining the situation I’d had with finding accomodation. Room was very spacious and comfortable

No Netflix/foxtel in room. The bath and shower was also very small, I’m only 5’4 and you wouldn’t want to be much taller to get in there.
