Joel South Hotels

"The park is lovely and well situated in town. It's an easy walk to the main street for meals, etc. The only issue we experienced was the cabin. It was clean, and the bed was comfortable, but we were unaware before arriving that the bed was up a ladder that was very difficult to access. It needed another handle on the left to make it safe. The TV and fridge being under the bed and the "bus seats" to sit on made relaxing in the room difficult. We had to hunch over to get in and out of that space. If the TV had been up with the bed, it would have been better. A shelf in the bathroom and a towel hook or rail would have also helped. These are small things, but they would have made our stay more comfortable."

"Friendly staff, easy check in and out. Room very clean, and parking no drama. Next trip to Ararat we will stay there again"

"The cabin was clean , staff were friendly check in easy"

"The tiny house was fine. Thank goodness we took our own wine glasses as there were none s d upon opening the cutlery drawer there was curry splashed in the teaspoons. The barbecue listed in the description was attached to the other tiny house on site said not available for us to use. Luckily we took our air fryer with us. There was no mirror in the bathroom which would have been helpful. The bed was comfortable and clean and we were impressed with the shower. It was just a pity the tiny houses were so close to each other and close to the main house, we had a nice stay but probably wouldn’t stay at this site again "

"Clean and comfortable needs a proper heater on cold nights though"

"Parking outside each room...woolworths 3 mins walk across the road...main street with shops, cafes, restaurant etc 7 min walk (2 blocks away)...also close to train station... very convenient"

"All Good "

"Ararat Hotel is a beautiful old building with 30 foot something ceilings. It's architecture and old world charm is immensely impressive. It operates like a hostel or an old boarding house. Unfortunately, I am not a fan of communal bathrooms and kitchens, but the bedroom was clean and warm on one of the coldest nights in Ararat this year. Thank you"

"Very comfortable and well equipped accommodation undercover parking and very helpful staff"
