The property had lovely tasteful decor which was a plus staying in that environment. Very clean also. It was disappointing that there was a problem with the liquor license but hopefully for them that will soon be rectified.

8/10 Very good

The Provincial is a beautiful old heritage hotel in a great location in Ballarat however since my last stay I can see that the love and care is not as good as it was and unfortunately the new owners did not have a liquor license yet so it felt as though the Hotel was just not firing on all cylinders.
