Top Hmas Cerberus Hotel Reviews

RACV Cape Schanck Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The room provided amazing ocean views facing the west for an amazing sunset. All the facilities and room were quiet clean and spacious. Breakfast was also amazing."

Mornington Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A solid stay that ticks all the boxes. I arrived expecting a fairly compact room and was pleasantly surprised by the generous space. The quiet atmosphere made for genuinely restful nights, which is increasingly rare in hospitality these days. The pub meal was proper quality at a good price. Executed well, the kind of food that makes you think the kitchen actually cares. Logistically, they've got it sorted. Late-night arrivals and early departures were hassle-free, which matters more than most hotels seem to realise. Access in and out was simple and easy. Best for: Travellers who value comfort, quiet, and convenience over frills. Business travellers, couples, anyone wanting a reliable base without the fuss."

Eden Bay Mornington

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing! Got a free upgrade to family room and it was simply perfect. Toothbrushes aren’t included, but everything from shampoo conditioner body wash to body lotion were provided. Kitchenware was also complete, bed was good, overall really good stay, didn’t want to leave at all! Can arrange for late check out at 11am, really helpful staff."
