Quality Inn Heritage On Lydiard  

On Ballarat’s historic Lydiard Street in the city centre, this boutique hotel sits among grand gold‑rush buildings. It’s a short walk to Her Majesty’s Theatre, Ballarat Town Hall, the Art Gallery of Ballarat and the Gold Museum, and minutes from Sovereign Hill. Melbourne Airport is about a 1 hour 45 minute drive.

Housed in a former 1862 bank, the hotel mixes heritage architecture with modern design. Thirteen air‑conditioned rooms feature 40" LCD TVs, safes, desks, fridges and microwaves; select rooms include in‑room spa tubs, chandeliers and Lydiard Street views. Décor is warm and stylish with simple, comfort‑first touches like complimentary toiletries and hair dryers.

Stay sharp in the fitness centre, unwind in the heated plunge pool and spa or soak up sun on the deck and rooftop terrace. Free self‑parking is onsite, plus room service (limited hours) and daily housekeeping. Expect easy access to tours and city strolls—wake up to Lydiard Street views and a brisk city breeze.

A hands‑on business centre and conference/function facilities make meetings simple. Complimentary high‑speed wired internet, luggage storage, dry cleaning/laundry and safety deposit boxes are all available.

An on‑site restaurant and bar serve a homemade breakfast each morning, with room service available during limited hours. Menus lean on local and regional flavours in a relaxed, city‑centre setting.
