Hotels near Stringybark Picnic Area in Cranbourne

We needed to get out of our house as we are in the middle of getting it painted. After our disastrous evening at the Cranbourne Motor Inn we decided to come here. The only regret is we didn’t book here last night as well. The lady at reception was delightful, informative and accommodating. The room is huge, comfortable with a lovely, homely sofa and big comfortable bed. There is also a roomy tea/coffee station with a fridge. The bathroom is immaculate. A continental breakfast was ready to go for my husband who gets up at 3 for work. Dinner in the cafe was delicious, so it has actually felt like a mini holiday in the suburb we live in! We are super impressed with the whole process and will highly recommend the Settlement to friends and family next time they come down to visit. Thank you for making our otherwise stressful time so much easier!

Excellent, well worth a visit. I was on the sixth floor and found the stay very quiet. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Coles, Woolworths and Aldi are just a short walk away. There is a restaurant downstairs that provides an excellent array of meals and drinks.

We loved our stay. All staff were amazing. Great value for money but the shower water pressure is average at best. Everything was clean and the space was big enough for our requirements. We loved having the balcony.

An overnight stay - very new, neat and clean. Little pricey for the location and compared to the other ”options” but then Pakenham needs such facilities and it was quiet and staff were all friendly and helpful. Would stay again if the need arises.

The location in the evening seems a bit sketchy, but the hotel itself clean, comfortable and safe. The staff is friendly, and the breakfast in the morning is better than most and easy on the wallet for the quality of food. 

The room wasn't too bad, the beds were comfortable. The service was absolutely terrible!!! On arrival we went to reception and the guy that served us was rude and arrogant, No customer service skills at all!!! We went to our room and had to leave and go to an appointment, we returned and went to the bistro for dinner, to be told they were fully booked and we could eat in the sports bar. Looking around there were atleast 10 empty tables, we made our way into the sports bar and I walked straight back out, there was no way I was sitting in there with my family to eat a meal. I walked back into the bistro and asked if I could wait for a table, I was told with attitude from the staff that they would come and find us when a table become free, as we waited there was NOWAY this bistro was fully booked! There were empty tables everywhere. We waited half an hour and I walked in and sat at an empty table, a waitress came over and I said my son is hungry and we will be ordering dinner. We eventually had a meal with poor service!!! I will NEVER set foot back in this hotel again. The staff need some lessons in friendly customer service!!!!!

Apartment was clean, spacious with great views over the water. Good position for some relaxing and scenic coastal walks. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The motel is close to shopping and some good restaurants. Having Dan Murphy's next door was an added convenience.

Our booking experience was professional and helpful. A new, young staff member was fantastic when we booked. Upon arrival we were greeted by two reception staff, one senior who was training another new staff member. The appearance was friendly, the senior staff member stating it was unusual that we had provided our PO Box address, proceeding to ask for a Drivers Licence while she recorded our residential address, without our approval. We were also asked to provide our debit card, despite the room cost being paud in full, in advance. We were informed that an additional $100 would be deducted from our account, despite explaining this would affect our travel budget. We were informed it is ”policy”. The senior staff member proceeded to say that we would get the funds returned about 3/4 days following our checkout and stated that she would get around to processing it the day after we checked out! When we requested a slightly later check out it was a hard ”No” from the senior reception staff member, who frankly had a personality not suited to friendly customer greeting guest services. The room however was lovely. Dinner staff in the function room were friendly and helpful.

I shared a room here with my brother when we attended a wedding on the Peninsula. The motel was easy enough to find. I'd looked it up on the map before heading there. I kept an eye out on the left, heading east, just after Maccas, and the large sign was easy to spot from the highway. Check in was easy. The room was spacious and, if not freshly painted, was in reasonably good nick. There was a large table with chairs, a large tv mounted above it on the wall, a microwave on the bench next to the sink and, in the cupboard underneath there was a toaster, a kettle, some cups and utensils, etc. There were four tumbers and martini glasses chilling in the bar fridge. There were two double beds, the one I slept in was comfy, and a full length mirror on the door of the small wardrobe. The bathroom was also spacious. The pool looked wall maintained but I didn't use it. Neither did my brother.

The room and bathroom are very large, but the breakfast is simple, but it is still good. It seems that there is a small city swimming pool. It has not passed. The hotel is not far from the place to eat and the supermarket. Mornington Island is very big. It is worth spending a few more. It’s a good day, there is a zoo on the island where you can take a photo of koala.
