I recently stayed at Quest Ballarat in a one bedroom apartment for 7 days for a business trip. The apartment had everything in it to make me feel at home. Very well equipped, large and generally very clean. Reception staff very welcoming and friendly. It was also very nice and quiet. I would definitely stay here again, especially if it... More

Was here for an overnight stay only,which was a shame as I would have loved to have been here for a lot longer if needed. Excellent facilities, a homely feeling place. May well have scored a perfect rating if I'd been here longer, intend to return next time I'm here.

These 'serviced apartments' (hotel rooms with cooking facilities) are housed in the former Loreto Convent (later Loreto College). The external facade has been retained, but fortunately the interior has been completely gutted and rebuilt in a tasteful modern style. My room was spacious and comfortable, with internet cable access but no wi-fi. Nothing in bar fridge except long-life milk. Location... More

We met up with a friend for a night away in Ballarat - and booked an executive apartment which was linked to a studio apartment by a double (lockable from both sides) door. The apartments are clean, modern and well equipped - everything you might need. We had really lovely service, including a portacot put in the room for our... More

My wife and I stayed at Quest Ballarat for three nights earlier this month. We felt that the apartments were the best value for money we experienced during a three week motoring holiday across Victoria and NSW. We booked a one bedroom apartment and were fortunate to be located on the ground floor. The apartments are relatively new, having been... More

Lovely new apartments, clean, modern and close to the centre of town. Excellent restaurant 2 minutes walk down the street at Gee Cees. Would stay here again definitely.

Modern interior, good bed, good size with front load washer and dryer in bathroom.Our only hassle was the washing machine being overly complex to work! Off street parking can be a problem if you return late and place is full. Great acoustics with no... More

The property is an old school or convent , so the rooms are very small, the kitchen is only just, no continental breakfast included, wireless internet is not free and a $75 deposit is required. On the plus side the property is central and you can walk to restaurants etc.
