We really enjoyed staying for 2 nights here. The room was big, have all the amenities we needed, very clean, peaceful and staff was very helpful and friendly. The location has great views of the mountains and very close to the hot pools and town center (less than 5 minutes' drive). The tavern/ restaurant has a very nice setting, perfect style/ deco for my husband who is an avid hunter. The staff were friendly and food was reasonably price and very yummy. We really felt relaxed even just staying in our room on the first day and explored the surroundings and town center the next day. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit to Hanmer Springs.

This was a very nice, peaceful stay. I didn't have the highest expectations, but even had I, those would have been met. The staff was very kind and resourceful, the room was clean and spacious, and the property was more quiet than I expected (a huge plus).

We stayed an extra 2 days due to bad weather and closed roads. Nothing was a problem and we were looked after very well. I don't usually write reviews but the people here really do go the extra mile and I've never had an experience like it before! :-)

Yes, the room was clean and serviced when needed. Management were particularly friendly and personable. Liked the shower, plentiful hot water and containers of bath products rather than sachets. Excellent idea. The kitchen area was adequate. The suite was very roomy-nice. On the other side of the coin, the kitchen tap leaked quite a bit and the fridge made noises continually-rather spoilt the quiteness really. Just a pain.
