Shamrock

An outstanding heritage building - a significant part of the colonial streetscape of Bendigo. The centrality of its location is a very important aspect of the property. The staff were very friendly, helpful and courteous and made us feel very welcome. The restaurant food was excellent, as was the service. The facilities were good - the room spacious and quiet. Parking was conveniently located and very reasonably priced. The only comment one can make is that the old lady is now a bit tired in places - the last major refit was in the early 1980s and this is starting to show - but otherwise, a great place.

Heritage hotel in the best location. We stayed 2 nights, the room was clean & warm, great bathroom, the staff were friendly, readily accessible and helpful. We loved the grandeur & sense of history. Yes areas of the building are showing their age. Some of the furnishings are slightly worn and yes we needed to park off site, in the secure parking area which was just a short walk to the Shamrock hotel, but all in all a great stay! The dinning area, was clean, the staff members working there were helpful, happy and friendly. We enjoyed a choice of breakfast each morning and had an enjoyable dinner there. We look forward to returning.

Extremely disappointing experience for $200 per night on a work trip. Was provided a room not in the actual hotel but ushered to one around the side that had direct street access. It appeared to be an old shop that had been made into a room with 1990s decor. The room was extremely noisy, drafty and felt very exposed to street level. Every truck, bus, car and pedestrian was audible and unsettling. There was not desk to work on. Totally overpriced and outright dated. Was a 2 star motel at best. An absolute rip off and would not recommend.
