Top St Leonards Hotel Reviews
Geelong Holiday Park
"Easy walk across the river into Geelong, clean comfortable cabin, a couple of pools to choose from, nice well kept surroundings."
Novotel Geelong
"Clean room and well maintained property"
The Sands Torquay
"Would stay here again"
Oaks Vue Suites Geelong
"Fabulous location"
Eden Oak Geelong
"Highly recommended"
Mornington Hotel
"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."
Peppers Moonah Links Resort
"Beautiful room, with stunning views, very friendly staff, super comfy bed and great parking"
Holiday Inn & Suites Geelong by IHG
"Excellent location. Walk to shops, restaurants and arts precinct. Staff were extremely helpful and welcoming. Lovely atmosphere in young. Beds and pillows comfy. Had a lovely stay."
