Pamela, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Oscars is an attractive property with a welcoming ambience. Staff provided a warm welcome and check-in was smooth. The room was very comfortable, clean, and with a lovely large spa bath. The bed was very comfortable indeed. A family celebration next day in the restaurant was superb: lovely atmosphere, delicious food, kind staff and the best birthday cake ever: a meringue roulade with crème anglaise and berries. I shall certainly stay at Oscar’s again.

One night for Christmas

Christmas night stay so knew that there would be restrictions. The hotel advised us well beforehand that there would be no reception or restaurant facilities. Communication was excellent. Small problem with the tv remote that was easily fixed. Very comfortable sleep.

The stay at Oscar's was amazing. You get to experience the heritage value of Ballarat while also enjoying luxury and comfort. I travelled solo and stayed for 2 nights - felt absolutely safe in this hotel. The restaurant also serves great food and drink options.
