Just what we needed

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 7 Apr 2021
My fiance and I have just returned from a fabulous long weekend away in Bendigo, and this place was great from start to finish. Darren checked us in quickly, smoothly, and with a friendly welcome, and our room was spacious and immaculate with all the essentials. The pool is lovely - plenty of space and it gets a nice amount of sun (but with plenty of shaded areas too for those that prefer). The location is perfect - about a 10 minute walk into town, with a supermarket and large pub across the road, but the neighbourhood is so peaceful, you wouldn't believe you were so close to the action.

We had such a great time, and Darren and Jen are such warm and welcoming people who will make sure you have a comfortable stay.

Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review, we're delighted that you both had a wonderful time in our city and at our Motel. You've highlighted some of the wonderful reasons to stay here. We agree its a great location, close to everything you need and to have spent some time in our hidden oasis (the pool) sounds like a perfect get away. Thanks again, safe travels this year. We hope to see you again.

A warm friendly welcome from Jen was a great start. It was followed by a spacious, light and quiet room with a very comfy king sized bed. The grassed pool area was sparkling clean and provided a relaxing spot to settle in for a wine and nibbles in the late afternoon. An easy walk into the CBD, with pubs dotted here and there providing many options for meals. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay at The Heritage again; it’s a great place to spend a night or two or three!

Thank you, your review warms my heart. It was lovely of you to notice the little things, a warm welcome, our wonderful rooms, Darren's pride and joy - the pool area, we agree it really is a great spot for a bubbly, a swim, a relax. We hope to see you again this year but if not, safe travels and wonderful adventures :)

Selected this motel based on the reviews and very happy with our choice. Location excellent, parking right outside our room door. Room spotlessly clean and nicely updated. Excellent pillows and crisp linen and towels. Contact free breakfast delivery through the brekky door. Good breakfast and very reasonably priced. Solar heated pool was so lovely and warm and a very nice sitting area around the pool, also very private. Hosts were very accommodating and appreciative that we booked via their website. Overall a lovely complex, quiet at night and I have no hesitation to highly recommend.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on our Motel. You've summed it up brilliantly. Its a great location, nice and quiet when you need to sleep, yet just a small distance from all the great things in Bendigo. Thank you also for noticing how hard our dedicated housekeepers work, they do a fantastic job. Its been a tough year and all direct bookings are helping get us back on track, so again thank you. Safe travels in 2021. We hope to see you again.

Darren and Jen are fantastic! We called to add an extra night on to our stay in the family room, and although it was unavailable, they modified another room to fit my family in and offered to move all of our stuff to the new room for us the next day. My kids loved the swimming pool. the rooms were great - especially the family room. I noticed that Darren seemed to remember the name of every visitor - I saw him call many by name, including all of my family. Next time we are back in Bendigo we will definitely book in here again!

Thanks Dan, we really appreciate the lovely review. It was a pleasure to meet you, Elissa and the gang - J, G & F. We love connecting with our guests. You'll notice Darren spends quite some time hanging in the carpark just chatting away to many. Its the best part of the day. After such a long and quiet winter its been a joy for us to hear the kids enjoying the pool, it really is the best spot to be with the family. Good luck with the Futsal. Hope to see you all again.

On a girls weekend and Darren and Jen have been the best hosts you could ever ask for, nothing is too much trouble. Newly renovated rooms and comfortable beds. We have spent 2 days lounging around the beautiful pool area, great lounge chairs and lovely green grass. The grounds of the hotel are pristine, all in walking distance to pubs, bottle shops and supermarket.

After such a loooong Covid winter, it was so lovely to have a wonderful group of ladies enjoying our facilities. Thanks very much for letting others know of our lovely renovated rooms, beautiful pool area and how we really are close we are to all the 'important' things like food and drinkies. We hope to see you all again soon.

For a family getaway for 1 night we headed to the Heritage Motel Bendigo.
It was Clean, comfortable, quiet, close to Woolies and Hungry Jacks. Not far from the cbd. Friendly and welcoming owner. Highly recommended.
