What guests think

At Mercure Bendigo Schaller, guests consistently praise the friendly, efficient staff and generally spotless, modern feel, while noting that the compact rooms suit short stays better than longer visits or travelers wanting extra space.

The onsite cafe, bar and restaurant earn frequent compliments for convenient, tasty meals, though some found menus limited, dietary handling inconsistent, or service unavailable at times. The location is handy to Bendigo Hospital and within a short walk or drive of the centre, but a few guests struggled with signage or felt it was a bit out of the main dining area. Parking is free and easy for many, yet can be tight when busy; noise experiences range from very quiet to occasional disturbance. Overall, expect an art focused stay with practical amenities.

Rooms are a little small and parking can be tough if busy. Plus it's not walking distance to much except hospital district and one pub. BUT. The hotel itself is modern and comfortable, has a decent bar and bistro on the premises, and is a nice place to stay. I do like it, but if I'm in an introvert frame of mind and not wanting too many people around, I'd probably go elsewhere, as it is very popular - and with good reason, it's a super hotel!

Appreciated onsite electric vehicle recharger. Proximity to lake for evening stroll. Apartment seemed very new. In some ways it was more than adequate for a couple — two (!) ensuites, two (!) kitchenettes. Two entrances. But a comfortable couch in the living area would have been greatly appreciated. Or at least comfortable armchairs — the ones provided were too hard to relax in. The dinner menu in the onsite restaurant was very restricted, and no cafes/restsurants close by.

The Mercure in Bendigo is in a convenient location close to all the interesting things to do in Bendigo. The one problem was that if you are couple staying, their beds are small. They are in between a double and a queen, Fine for one person, very tight for two. The bed is also not very long, so feet almost overhanging the end of the bed.

We liked the modernness and the cleanliness of the room. We did not like the cramped size of the rooms, one could barely get around one side of the bed. They are a one person room only and not designed for a couple. I can’t imagine the tiny balcony would ever be used, it is ridiculously small. The architect would have been wiser to incorporate the balcony into making the room a tinier bit bigger. The shower would not be suitable for a large person as it is very squeezy also. I weigh 50 kilos and I just fitted in.

A nice hotel with modern decor & cool art work. Neat & tidy, clean. Room was not overly large but had everything we needed. Location is a little out of town, it is walkable but there is not a lot nearby so it makes it feel like a long walk. Breakfast was great, really enjoyed it. Staff were friendly.
