Less than 5 minutes walk from the pools and cafes. Friendly welcoming staff, we were very pleased to find a basket of muffins waiting for us upon our return from a day out. Rooms were clean and modern with DVD player, satellite TV and microwave. Over 500 DVD's to choose from is a nice touch for those traveling with children.

For the Thermal Pools and town restaurants this is ideal. We had a king-sized room with all the facilities you need for a nights stay (or two). Very comfortable bed and a small veranda for having you breakfast on - the owners will supply one for you but we might have been better advised just wandering back in to town... More

Hi William, we hope you enjoyed your self drive tour through New Zealand in February 2012. We understand the agency you used are extremely professional and in April this year changed ownership. We agree, Hanmer Springs is very spoilt for eateries. Thank you for your review of your stay with us. Kind regards Merv and anne More

We stayed in a two-bedroom unit, it was very spacious and comfortable - upstairs, so there was a few stairs to climb when carrying the luggage. Car-parking was very tight, and it appeared that some guests had to park on the road. Used the laundry which I felt was rather expensive. Internet access was good.

What a perfect location towards the end of a sweet little town that is the host for the Thermal Pools. We stayed there at the end of our holiday to soak up and rejuvenate for our long flights back to the US. I arrived with an aching back and the management discussed which of their available Units would be most... More

I have now stayed at Aspen Lodge on three occasions and I was not disappointed on this third visit. The location is excellent, just a short walk to the Thermal Pools, shops and other attractions but just far enough away to not be noisy in the evenings. Everything has been thought of for visitor comfort and, on each occasion I... More

King size bed, good size room, excellent courtesy DVD collection and close to the central part of Hanmer springs. Has little kitchenette and average size bathroom. Clean and reasonably new interior. We got a good night sleep there. Service was good except for the morning of checkout when the (male) manager was surly to us for some reason...otherwise would have... More

Thank you for your review of your stay with us. In response to your remark about management (male), we would ask that you try to understand Merv had open heart surgery on 29 February 2012, a quadruple bypass and is most apologetic of your impression on check out. Kind regards Merv and Anne More
