Bendigo Ernest Hotel
Relish In Contemporary Heritage
Welcome to Hotel Ernest Bendigo – a requisite destination for the discerning traveller, for the seeker of style, for the avid historian, for the cultural connoisseur.
Situated in the heart of Bendigo’s CBD, and a stone’s throw from the city’s coveted eateries and the renowned Bendigo Art Gallery, Hotel Ernest is a boutique offering that provides business and holiday-makers with a luxurious, modern and ambient getaway set against a grand heritage backdrop.
Best of all, we offer a risk free booking guarantee. You will be refunded the total room rate if you advise us of cancellation 48 hours prior to arrival.
Hotel Ernest is also owned by David Cook-Doulton and Martin Shew, your hosts at Hotel Vera Ballarat.
Ground Floor Accessible & Pet Friendly Suite
For the comfort of all guests, the Hotel Ernest Bendigo has been restored to ensure inclusivity without compromising on style and comfort.
The Accessible Suite has been designed for guests who require additional space and amenities. It features all the essentials, a king bed, spacious bathroom, roll-in shower with seat, lowered basin and support handles – creating a soul-warming space to farewell the world outside.
Hotel Ernest also understands that a holiday is not complete without one’s furry friend. With Hotel Ernest’s pet-friendly accommodation, we accomodate house-trained dogs so they are equally able to enjoy their stay away.*
*Please note that a one-off fee of $40 applies for the pet-friendly suite. Only one dog is permitted inside, and we kindly request they do not climb the furniture. Guests are required to provide their own dog bedding, and for the comfort of your neighbours, please ensure your fun-loving friend does not bark into the night.
Sustainability
Sustainability has been integral to Ernest’s prosperity, and has been at its core since the idea of the hotel was first conceived. True luxury must be founded upon environmental integrity.
Ernest offers guests the convenience of a dedicated Porsche EV charging station on-site, providing the reassurance that one’s adventurous escape will be seamless, guilt free and joy-fueled.
