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.

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.

Having eaten at Oscars before, and knowing the beautiful food and service it provides it was a good opportunity to try out their accommodation. No surprises the service and quality was equally great. There is a difference between providing a service and providing hospitality and the team at Oscars have the second one nailed.

It was exactly what I needed but for the price, I feel there could have been more. It would have been nice if I could’ve gotten a table for dinner instead of eating in my room.
