The perfect location. I got the executive room on a good deal and stayed four nights. The location couldn't have been better for walking around the cbd, getting a meal or coffee, strolling through Rosalind Park, going to galleries and info centre. Room was good, bed comfy. Slept well (we rarely do at motels, so that was great!) Only negatives were the seal on the shower door was warped and shower door won't shut. It stays open while showering and drenches the floor. No streaming service (only free to air), and on our last day there was no housekeeping and we had to ring in the afternoon to ask for fresh crockery and a clean bin bag, but a full housekeeping would have been nice as we were out of most things. We figured staff were super busy so didn't ask for much. Lovely staff though! Friendly and helpful.

We had a great stay. Excellent location as it was quite and an easy walk to the Rifle Brigade Hotel where we had an excellent meal and down to the Gelato store for dessert. Lots of dining options available within 500 meters. Nice modern room. Would definitely stay again.

Barclay on View was very well located to all activities. The eating options were varied and in excellent proximity. The block-out blind for the room was great for the morning 🌄 A very enjoyable stay. Breakfast was well prepared and served.

Central in Bendigo - affordable - very easy check in process - clean and tidy (but a little 'shabby' overall), not beyond expectation however for the price - I'm in Bendigo for work a few times a year - happy to stay there every time :)

Have stayed here many times over the years, but it has clearly deteriorated and not worth the money now. No staff and maintenance issues are clear. The first day we found the shower door seal was broken and the door didn’t close properly. Staff would have had to notice that if cleaning. The bathroom room fan was long past its use by date and sounded like a truck idling. We could not use it at night as it would wake the room and even surrounding rooms with the vibration. The milk was not restocked and that was when we discovered reception was NEVER open despite the open hours signs. I rang the number on the door (during the ‘open’ hours) about getting some milk and was told there was nothing they could do! When I complained and said I shouldn’t have to go buy such a basic item they finally agreed to deliver some later that night. It was clear then nobody was on site. The room only had the most basic service and was clearly never vacuumed and when we left towels on the floor to try to get them replaced the old ones were just hung up on the shower! With no one on site there was no one to discuss discounts on checkout, and the staff answering the phone were clearly not managers. We saw a car trying to check in at 2pm trying to contact someone for ages without success. Another given the wrong door code trying to get in. It was a bit of a shambles for rooms that were not cheap! Not good!

Good Morning Stuart, We are sorry to hear you didn't enjoy your stay. Unfortunately, the shower doors deteriorate over time despite our maintenance team constantly replacing them. Our reception is open daily, and we are always contactable via phone. As you can imagine, working during the new year and Christmas period is quite busy and exhausting for our two receptionist managers. They are always contactable and happy to assist our guests with any issues. Our cleaning staff will always replace towels that are placed on the floor and we apologise for the missing milk. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Regards, Hannah.
