What guests think

At Quest Bendigo Central, travellers highlight a central, walkable location and generally clean, comfortable apartments with useful kitchenettes, but note dated decor, limited on-site parking, and occasional noise from slamming doors or nearby guests affecting sleep.

Several guests encountered awkward shower-over-bath setups, uncomfortable split-king beds, and intermittent issues such as faulty fixtures or limited hot water. Service is often friendly and welcoming, though some reports cite slow follow-up, late opening at reception, and rooms not being serviced as expected. Expect a practical base best for those prioritizing space and autonomy over polish.

Facilities

On-site parking is often limited and tight, with some guests needing to use street parking, while a few found it sufficient or appreciated the gated lot. A small pool is available, and upper floors are accessed by stairs.

Check in was simple, staff member did her job and check in swift. Overall the place was quiet, except for when the heavy entry doors slam shut in what feels like of all the rooms nearby waking me many times. Good that the carpark gates close of an evening for added security. Rooms a little more dated than photos show. Got a room with entirely opaque windows and covered in trees so no light coming through at all. Surely you would keep this room for a heavily discounted stay? Upon check out, arrived at 7.00am to check out as 2 hour drive ahead of me, sign on door says open at 7am. A different receptionist from the one at check in strolled on in at 7.12am to open reception, coffee in hand and no care in the world or apology for being late, given there were multiple clients waiting and some before me had already left after waiting too. Clearly had time to stop for a coffee instead of working leaving me arriving late to a business appointment (could not check out earlier and could not locate a safe drop for card). Made an average stay that little bit more average. Likely would not stay again.

For what it was, the property seemed a little rundown and it was a negative that the above ground rooms had to be accessed by staircase, though to be fair I was asked if we wanted to switch to a ground floor room but the bed wouldn’t have been suitable. Not bad, but it wasn’t quite up to the usual excellent standard we’ve received at previous stays at Quest accommodation.

The Quest central Bendigo was quite pleasant to stay at. The room was very clean and spacious. Although it is quite dated that wasn't an issue at all. We had a 2 bedroom apartment which had 2 bathrooms which was great. 2 comfortable king sized beds. The only issue wehad was parking as it was very limited and tight.

Didn't like the fact we were unable to open a window in the room. The window we did have, had no view at all. Its great the premise has a car park, but it is extremely tight, to get in or out of.

Parking was ok but we were told there was not enough parking for everyone when fully booked. We only stayed the one night and we walked to our event/shops etc so wasn't a problem.

Stayed here recently on a short trip. This is our second stay. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. The A/C units and the fridge were very quiet, which is a definite plus. The water pressure in the showers was great! It is only a short drive into the centre of Bendigo. Check in and check out very smooth, and the staff were lovely and easy to interact with . Overall a very satisfactory spot to stay.

The room was spotlessly clean and well appointed. Really liked the fully featured kitchenette with cook-top, fridge and microwave oven (something you don't often see in hotel rooms). Nice hot shower. Convenient parking, almost outside our door. Only a couple of minor disappointments; 1). there were no electric blankets on the bed (we didn't want to run the split-system heating all night to keep warm). 2). we had a not very romantic view of the rainwater storage tanks directly outside our window.

It's in a great location, an easy walk into the city centre and to the lake. The room was dated, the bathroom was very old and had a skinny shower. The room wasn't as clean as we would have liked and the carpet needed to be steam cleaned..

The rooms were quiet, however looked tired and worn. The paint was chipped and walls dirty. There was fluff build up on the skirting boards. Our room was not serviced totally, towels not changed and bed not made. Curtains were broken in places and not hanging properly The location is good, close to hotels and cafe. Washer and dryer in our room was really good. Staff were very friendly and helpful

The quest Bendigo is very dated and it shows in the rooms. All the amenities were good and room felt comfortable and was very clean. TV has no free to air channels so you need to have the apps on your phone to watch TV. The bed was comfortable and no walk in shower.
