Advertised as a luxury 5 star hotel. Would say it's a 3 star at best. A tired looking small room, and a bathroom door that we couldn't lock. The reception area had a terrible smell. The only positives were the beautiful bedhead and comfy bed. Wouldn't recommend if you are looking for accommodation that is more luxe.

I was impressed with the every aspect of this hotel, from the decore - not as bland as most hotels, with a nice mix of furniture and decorations appropriate to the age of the original building, to the fantastic staff at reception, the size of the rooms (very large suite) and the very comfy bed and furniture. A delight to stay there and the Provincial will be my accommodation choice when staying in Ballarat in the future.

The room was exceptionally clean
Bed was a bit soft but lovely probably do with some updated mattresses
Rain a bit small but it served my purposes for all overnight stay
Although the front desk was closed after 6:00 p.m. they made sure the process was just as easy as if they were open. Communication was exceptional. The restaurant staff when I arrived we're so friendly and as it was soon to close make sure there was a table waiting when I dropped off my bags.
Would definitely stay here again

The room was clean and had everything we needed, albeit on the smaller size, but no great issue for us in that regards. However, we weren’t all that happy with the number of steps, in particular at the entry to our room and into the bathroom. These presented as tripping hazards for us and required constant alertness.

The Provincial is a wonderful choice for an overnight stay in Ballarat. The hotel is beautifully presented, with clean, comfortable rooms and a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel relaxed as soon as you arrive. The location is ideal—central and convenient, yet still quiet enough for a great night’s sleep. Staff were friendly and attentive, and everything from check-in to check-out was seamless. A perfect blend of comfort, charm, and convenience. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Ballarat for a short stay.

The Reception Lady was very professional in her greeting and service. The first room allocated was quite small and we requested a change which was arranged very quickly, this is what good client is built on and suited us. On entering the room we were very impressed, clean and impressive. We were there only overnight and impressed that next time in Ballarat we will stay there.

Decor is beautiful, our room was very clean, spacious and very quiet, location of hotel is perfect, parking is great and breakfast was very good.
On the negative side there is only instant coffee in the room (yuck), only one towel per person and the room servicing carts were parked outside our room all evening and were still there next morning… not a “luxury” experience.

Room was clean, 2 bedroom unit was lovely. Front door squeaked and we had to get someone to fix it. Power point in main bathroom did not seem to work. Coffee machine leaked water. For a room that is meant to be accessible having chairs lines up all the way to the door of the unit does not make it accessible. They need to update information sheets in room, the info sheet states you can call reception, room service etc by using the phone in the room. There is no such phone. Would be nice if they could replace dead plants, it is not a great look.
Meals at Lola were lovely. Desserts were amazing!

Fantastic boutique hotel

Amazing hotel with the best customer service ever! We were here for a wedding weekend and they helped us with early check ins and late check outs plus cutlery/plates for the bridal suite. Fantastic French restaurant downstairs. Just bring ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper due to nearby train tracks. Would stay here again

The bell

Hotel staff were amazing. One thing I did notice upon arrival and checkout was I had to call a number to get someone to come to reception not ideal. Hotel was great rooms very spacious bathroom fantastic except for the water leak in the shower. Rating is Hotel a little lower because of the train station across the road and trains going all night unfortunately it still has a level crossing so the bell from an approaching passenger or freight train continued well into the morning and unfortunately the bed was too soft for my liking so not much sleep.

Great place, Art Nouveau style but done up recently. Currently no liquor license so can't sell you alcohol with the meal but that didn't bother us. Nice restaurant that's part of the hotel. Our room (the double suite) is a bit noisy due to train line nearby but they provide earplugs. Very comfortable stay and we were made to feel very welcome.

Noisy trains ALL NIGHT!

Though this hotel is lovely to look at, I wouldn’t stay if you intend to sleep! My room was directly across from a railway station that doesn’t stop all night. Freight trains, passengers trains, trains blowing their horn, boom gates sounding ALL NIGHT!!! And no double glazed windows, so you might as well be sleeping on the tracks! Such a disappointment as the property is lovely, but I definitely wouldn’t recommend due to its location
