Stayed here for 3 nights in mid April and wow what a gem! Location is perfect, opposite the hot pools and walking distance to all restaurants and bars. Set back from the road, the rooms are quiet with no traffic noise. Studio rooms are very spacious and immaculately clean. Great to stay in a studio that actually has a couch,... More

Hamner offers some very good values in the South island. There is a lot of competition and in the late afternoon they start putting out the "special Boards". We were very happy with this property. The husband and wife team are delightful and the rooms are very homely and spacious, with good beds, good showers and all in all a... More

We stayed two nights here and it was great all round for a good price. A Nice clean room and right across the road from the thermal pools. Would definitely stay again

Have stayed here many years ago (Oct.1998), we just drive straight to this establishment. The motel is now run by Chanel and her husband who took over the business four years ago.

We were not disappointed - some of the cheapest low season rates we've seen in S.Island this year, for a 4* location. Nothing outstanding to mention, but everything is clean, spick/span and... More

We wanted a room for one night and went to 5 different places in Hamner before choosing this one. The genuine and helpful attitude of the manager and his wife made a lasting impression. Glenalvon is conveniently situated almost directly opposite the entrance to the thermal pools and the rooms are arranged around an attractive courtyard away from the road... More

Very friendly hosts who were accomodating in every way! Our family booked last minute on wotif.com, so managed to get a very reasonably priced spacious unit. Due to the fact it was so reasonably priced and the unit so clean and tidy. It wasn't a hard decision to stay over for an extra night. We would most certainly stay here... More

Extremely clean, quiet, spacious slightly dated accomodation with host that were exceptional in their knowledge, service and attitude. Very central - across road to hotpools.
