The property was beautiful, well maintained and well presented. The owner arranged everything at very short notice late at night as many of the family members had travelled from various locations within both Victoria and NSW. Nothing was any trouble and the owners communication was prompt, polite and very compassionate towards our circumstances. This morning I met the cleaning staff and again nothing was any trouble and they were very polite, considerate and compassionate towards me in relation to our circumstances.

I thought the rooms where clean and comfortable. I arrived at 3.30 a m. The owner allowed an extra 30 mins. sleep in. i.e. 10:30 a.m checkout. Much appreciated. The owner is very polite and friendly. Will definitely come back in the future Thank-you!

Lovely setting - enjoyed being next to the fields with the alpacas. Lots of wildlife, good bird watching. Nice view over mountains at sunset. Good location 30 mins from Halls Gap. Very clean and well-maintained. Comfortable bed. Well provisioned kitchen. Tea, coffee, milk, biscuits and cereal were a lovely bonus.

Ararat is a lovely town in itself and has everything you need, town hall, art gallery, many shops, antiques, eating places, gift shops, swimming pool, indoor and out, recreation, park, drives up to Halls Gap and tourist attractions areas. Didn't like the mess and Barracks much, it was cheap and very pub style.

It was a good a good base for two nights (we booked an extra night) because it is easy drive to Halls Gap to walk in the Grampians and also tour around the area. Ararat has a museum, art gallery and delightful gardens to walk through. Has retained lot of Art Deco buildings which gives it a lovely ambience.

Local interesting history, being the JWard prison and Ararat Lunatic Asylum - both worth a visit. Town centre has ample cafes and restaurants to suit all tastes, and shopping to suit all interests. Short drive to Stawell, Halls Gap and Grampians. An interesting and worthwhile place to visit.

Owners were very friendly, the motel doesn't look like much from the outside but the rooms have been meticulously renovated, everything spotless and all basics you need are provided. Excellent location, almost opposite Ararat train station. Next visit we will stay here again but catch the train, walk across to hotel and do a tour of J Ward and catch a movie at the art deco Ararat cinema which is all in walking distance.

The room was clean and had all the things you'd expect in a Hotel Room. I found the area the Hotel was in was not noisy which was good. The people who ran the Hotel were helpful and accommodating and made you feel you were welcome there.

Rob was a great host, he was both interested and interesting to have a chat with. He came across as very unflappable. The hotel bar, room and facilities were all very clean.
