This location was excellent for visiting the hot springs. We booked the relaxation/pamper package and this was the hotel we were placed in. The rooms are spacious, clean and had free wifi. The woman at the desk was very helpful and nice. You could walk through the trees across the road to the hot springs and it was also very... More

We stayed here around Anzac Day. We had two units. Rooms were modern - love the mirrors. Beds were great. Water pressure in shower was great. Large bathroom with decent size towels. Rooms backed onto a nice deck area with no view but we were here for the hot pools so it didn't bother us at all. We were downstairs... More

Our room was very spacious with enough room for a couch and coffee table. Everything was clean and modern. The bathroom was clean and relatively new. There was free wifi and parking. The hotel is joined onto a pub which looked like it had decent food(you get 10% off), but its also a short walk into town.

We stayed here as part of a package deal. The staff were very friendly and somehow we were upgraded to a bigger studio unit. Lovely units. Bit further out of the town centre, but still not too far to be able to walk.

This motel is just great. Everytime I go to hanmer we stay here. The price is great, service great and the room great. Totally recommend. It's just slightly out of the hamner district- so you do have to drive a few mintues to get to the pools and shops.
