Idyllic, peaceful and historical "Coath Cottage" minutes from Bendigo's CBD
We enjoyed staying in the historic property that had been restored to make it comfortable and cosy. The Bendigo West location made it easy to drive into the centre of town to the art gallery and to find a supermarket nearby

National Hotel Complex and Bendigo Central Apartments
Entire property seemed to be spotlessly clean. Staff are extremely good and catered for our special needs without any problems. We stay there every year when we are in Bendigo and will continue to do so. Highly recommended .

Elm Motel
Room was clean and well presented. Didn't like the automatic check in, especially being asked to take a photo of the room code. (Assumes everyone has a suitable phone). Otherwise a comfortable stay.
