Independent in Golden Square

"."

"I booked Barclay on View to stay after a concert at Ulumbarra Theatre. It was a great location with about 600m walk to theatre. Felt safe to walk at night on my own. Barclay on View is an older building but very well maintained. I arrived on a 42° day and the staff had thoughtfully left the air conditioning on, so I went into a cooled room. Thankyou. Very close to art gallery, funky shops, cafes, pubs , Bendigo Visitors Information and the botanic gardens. A longer walk to the supermarket. Faith Leech Aquatic Centre pool complex, and sporting fields are over the road. Lots of open space close by for active kids to burn off energy. There's aso a huge play activity section in the botanic gardens. The room was very clean and the bed was really comfortable. If you self cater, there's no microwave but there is a toaster. I stayed 2 nights - the housekeeping staff checked whether I needed change of towels or extra tea making supplies. I did have trouble with Google maps picking up View Street, so perhaps check directions when you arrive in Bendigo. (May the Maps app was struggling in the heat too.) The driveway entrance is just after reception. Great value, a really enjoyable stay and I thoroughly recommend this property. "

"Great property, well run by the ladies, good communication with a late arrival, vkean, well set out rooms, would stay again Family of four adults"

"The staff were really lovely and friendly. The room was great. Getting up the stairs with two really heavy suitcases was a little difficult but we coped. Having the bistro right next door was super convenient. Also having access to a laundry was just brilliant as we had already been away from home for well over a week and really needed to do some washing. The gentleman behind the desk was really helpful, even changing some notes into coins so we could use the machines. Would stay again but if we had big suitcases we would ask for a downstairs unit now that we know that there are stairs. "

"It was wonderful to stay in a historic building so close to the centre of town and close to many other historic buildings. The staff were very friendly and helpful"

"Had a great stay here! Have been before and will be back again! Thank you Best Western! "

"Very spacious and much quieter than expected ( one of the rear units). The only thing it needs is a bedside lamp. "

"Great value. Very clean and comfortable room. Really looks like they take pride in the condition of the rooms. Excellent. "

"Loved waking up and walking around the lake :)"
