The room was terrible and needs to be completely refurbished and renovated. It was the absolute low point of some regional travel we made in April 2024. 1. The place was generally quite dirty and dusty. 2. The shower door did not close properly and was very dirty at the bottom of the door/shower. And it leaked along the back wall. The water disappeared into the floor and there is water damage showing on the roof of the car port below. 3. The spa door is held shut with black tape. 4. Inadequate cutlery is supplied e.g. one teaspoon and the draw is dirty. 5. The blind on the window between the bedroom and the bathroom is broken. 6. Curtin cords are hanging together with a thread. 7. The microwave does not have all its legs and is sitting on a piece of dirty foam. 8. There was a plastic blue cover on the couch and cushion which made the place feel like a crime scene. It was absolutely horrible. 9. The WiFi just did not work. 10. There are no power points near the desk or table. 11. The table had a horrible brown mark on it. 12. The bedside table was all marked making it look dirty and there is only one bedside table. 13. There was a lot of noise from the hotel on Saturday night making it difficult to sleep. 14. And even the Don't Not Disturb sign was held together with sticky tape. Hotel management did not respond to concerns made directly to them. Do yourself a favour a stay somewhere else.

I have stayed at Seymours on multiple occasions. The personnel are wonderful to deal with, very helpful and obliging. The rooms are very spacious, extremely clean and well resourced. The room I routinely stay in has a spa and which is splendid. There are full cooking facilities in the room(s) that I have stayed in, parking on site and sleep quality is really good given that the location of Seymours is quiet. The property is close to transport, eateries, shopping and all else that Ballarat has to offer. I will happily return to Seymours when I am next in Ballarat. dee
