What a fantastic stay we had at the Heritage Bendigo. We travelled from Sydney to Bendigo to visit the Elvis Exhibition, and after a long drive my family and I were warmly welcomed by the receptionist. When we explored our room they were extremely clean and “COVID” safe. Every amenity was available to keep us warm from heating in the bathroom and extra blankets, even an electric blanket if needed. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The location was no more than 10mins to pretty much everything to see in Bendigo. I highly recommend!,

Reviewed By traceyandpeterg74

We came to Bendigo for the Elvis exhibit and chose to stay here. Room was great, bed was comfy we both slept well on both nights, did wonder if traffic noise would be a problem from our room but it was not an issue at all. Shower has great water pressure and breakfast was good. We would happily stay here again when coming to Bendigo

Reviewed By Christine M

Cosy little budget hotel in West Melbourne. Super convenient for visiting the Vic Markets. Is on the tram line to get into Melbourne (although we walked in as it wasn’t very far). Suitable as a base for getting out and about. Rooms are small and basic and could do with attention to detail. However, great for a budget stopover and very helpful and friendly staff available 24 hours.

Modest but super central

Reviewed By charlottedX2175DW

I stayed in a single room for 3 nights after Christmas 2021 and while the room was quite small, it was still very comfortable and perfectly adequate for me and my needs. You may want to bring your earplugs as it was a little noisy but then, you're in the very heart of Melbourne's CBD so ....! And if you love trams as much as me, you won't mind waking up to their 'ding ding' noises :) And I can almost guarantee you won't find a place as cheap as this so central to the CBD. I'd be happy to stay at this place next year.

Comfortable and clean

Reviewed By Leisandra

My husband and I stayed at Bell Motel for almost 2 weeks. To us it was a hidden gem at a delightful price. Pamela is the most amazing manager and made us feel at home from her very first warm welcome. The room was large and super clean, the bed the comfiest we have slept in for a long time and all staff were friendly, professional and efficient. It reminded us of an old-fashioned motor inn, no fancy decor but lovely clean sheets, heaps of pillows and room to move. We would love to stay there again! Oh and the breakfast was a great start to the day too.

Reviewed By sydfire

Our second time at this very good Motor Inn. It’s not in the CBD of Melbourne but with the excellent transport system it might as well be. Large room with all the amenities we stayed a week and was there mostly to just sleep. If you’re looking for something a bit out of the CBD and like to use public transport, give this place a go. Reasonably priced and recommended.
