Top Cardigan Hotel Reviews

Ballarat Colonial Motor Inn & Apartments

8/10 Good

"Excellent property, very clean and well maintained, and just a few minutes from Ballarat Central. Comfy beds, very well equipped kitchen, and such helpful staff. The highway noise may bother very light sleepers, but the rooms are clearly well soundproofed because it didn't wake us. Thanks for a wonderful stay, we will be back"
