Mornington Hotel

Mornington Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We enjoyed a spacious room (#3) at Mornington Hotel with a great shower! It was convenient to have the bistro downstairs for dinner. (Staff is quite busy, so for check-in we found them in the bistro area.) This is a great location for heading to the Mornington Peninsula area for sightseeing and brunch. Perhaps a suggestion would be to replace the carpet in the hallway, which might help with sound dampening from the bar below, but talking/volume did lessen after 10pm."

"We've stayed at this property a couple of times. The staff are really friendly and very welcoming. The resort has great facilities, plenty to keep everybody occupied (if they want to be). The grounds are lovely and well maintained. Our apartment this time was a little bit tired but for the price, I wasn't overly concerned. We'll definitely return."
