"Helpful staff, friendly, nice, clean"

RACV Cape Schanck Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed at RACV Cape Schanck Resort on the Mornington Peninsula and had a great time overall. The restaurants and bars are excellent, the views are stunning, and there are some lovely walking trails right on the doorstep. Our room was clean and comfortable with a really good bed. One thing worth knowing: if you book an ocean view room, room service isn’t available out there. It’s only offered in the main building. That said, the staff went above and beyond and were happy to deliver to us when they weren’t slammed, which we really appreciated. Would happily come back."

Mornington Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent choice. Check-in was simple after we were directed to reception, then up the stairs with our keycards. The room was very large and, in fact, contained an extra single bed. There was ample hanging in the wardrobe, which we used mainly for coats, it being 12c when we arrived (end of May). We stayed two nights, and room service came in while we were out on the Sunday and straightened up the bed and emptied the bins. The room was lovely and warm, as was the bathroom, with its fantastic bath - great after a day in the cold. We ate in the restaurant the first night; my pick was a quite fiery Nasi Goring with my husband choosing from the Specials Menu a not so spicy calamari dish - the opposite of our expectations, but both enjoyed thoroughly. It was busy in there, being Saturday, and it was lovely to see the mix of patrons from kids to the older generation, and the staff were bustling around excellently. There was slight noise up to around 10.30pm as a party was underway, but it didn't stop our watching TV or sleeping. We visited 'Thrift', which is slightly outside town, and then Tyabb Antique Centre and another second-hand place, as well as walking to the centre of town to explore the shops. We saw a 'Steak House' and booked for Sunday night. It was superb, and with drinks wasn't as expensive as I feared. Mornington Hotel is a great base for staying on the Peninsula. I would have loved there to be mugs, and not cups; and Hot-chocolate sachets for the cold season."
