Provider-sourced guest reviews.
The location is amazing, So close to town you can just walk anywhere, The bath was amazing and so relaxing. Would definitely stay again!
No lift for the upper levels however that's a minor thing in the scheme of things.
Excellent location, comfortable room, delightful and helpful staff
Food was disappointing. Breakfast was poor and evening menu was limited.
Everything
Dinner and breakfast very nice
Room had 2 king size beds which spoilt the overall effect of a lovely room and only left room for 1 chair.
very large comfortable beds
the music playing in the hallways could be a little quieter as can easily be heard from rooms on first floor
Great location clean and private Super comfy Beds
Nothing
An amazing historic venue warm and cozy in a winter wonderland. The dining hall with a open fire and cocktail bar was a real bonus. the gardens that surround the venue were also amazing.
Beautiful old hotel in centre of Hanmer
The spa outside and the size of the room
Location was good.
The staff was lovely and helpful, the food was great, very good room.
We had a west side room and it got so hot in the night. We had to completely turn off the heating and open the windows to sleep.
Location is about the best you’ll get in Hanmer. The place is overall lovely and clean, and the staff are friendly.
The sound proofing is a little lacking between rooms, so it’s easy to hear people walking down the hallways which are a bit creaky. The room was also a bit hot and difficult to cool, even near the end of winter. Beds could be a little more comfortable.
Middle of the Town
Noisy, you can hear every step of people walking in halway
Special place isolated and wild. Great to see old building restored and kept alive. Grounds special. Simply and comfy room. Good food service, average wine, great staff.
Ensure house staff do not move furniture into awkward places for the visitor.
Central location so we walked everywhere and it was warm inside
Tv didn't work, told the staff and they didn't fix it at all.
The room, the restaurant and the lovely fireplace which we sat around
Possibly the lighting in the bedroom could have been a bit brighter
The location
It was a bit dated but clean, everything we needed. Enjoyed dinner meal at restaurant but was large area so a bit cold.
Sehr nettes, schönes, älteres Hotel mit Charme. Sehr gute Lage im Zentrum, genügend Parkplätze in der Nähe, aber nicht vor der Tür. Poollandschaft und viele Restaurants in der Nähe. Frühstück sehr gut. Schöner Hotelgarten.
Personal beim Frühstück etwas überfordert. Wartezeiten, bis Speisen beim Buffet nachgeteilt wurden - dafür aber frisch.
Great location and lovely grounds
Bed and location.
TV generic channels, no movies etc, tea station, room layout, lighting. Stains on bed base and sofa. Decor tatty. No cleaning cloths available.
Ground floor room, very clean and tidy, absolutely perfect
Bed was comfortable
The lighting in the room was terrible - 3 lamps and no overhead light. This is extremely poor for New Zealand.
Clean and comfortable. Lovely with the open fire .
No where to wash dishes. The cleaner washes them in the bathroom. The meals are over priced and not worth the money . furniture needs updating in the Hotel lounge .
Great location and the staff were all lovely. The superking bed was comfortable .
The rooms are very outdated and the cleanliness of the rooms was average
The location.
The room was a bit tired, with a cracked sink in the bathroom and broken blind. The garden room was located separately to the main hotel which we didnt realise. There was no lighting on the path from the main hotel to the accomodation which was poor at night and unsafe.
Great location
Adjoining rooms could be heard
Was convenient and loved the old worldliness of it. A bit of history. And it was warm. The corridors were warm and welcoming as were the rooms.
Our room was above the kitchen and we got food smells on the Sunday morning drifting up to the room. Not a major problem
Good room size, warm in winter, heater electric blanket. Large bathroom with heater, plenty of hot water, excellent water pressure. Fluffy large towels. Very quiet pretty outlook
Better lighting in bedroom.
We stayed in a greenhouse unit. It was comfortable and warm. We liked that it was away from other units.
We paid extra for breakfast which was a buffet style and continental. There were only 4 hot items. Scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns and sausages. This was very disappointing. The eggs and bacon were dry and the sausages were tasteless. The hash browns were nice as they had just been cooked when we arrived. They had warm pastries which were delicious. We did not try the continental breakfast.
It was clean and lovely property
The staff were freindly and helpful,the dining facilities are lovely greay food good price
The lighting outside the building is very bright ,i would suggest that the hotel invest in blackout curtains for the rooms as normal curtains do no block the light from the very bright halogen lights just outside the rooms
Loved my stay here the room was small but that was okay
Supercomputer beds, great location. Very nice breakfast
Lighting in roo.s not great for makeup - was heading to a wedding. Appreciate that probably not a normal concern in this location
Great central location, walking distance to hot springs and facilities. Large grounds and peaceful setting.
No plates, cutlery or food handling utensils in cottage.
The staff the history and photos the placement it was 10 out of 10
Location
Heater didn’t work and got replaced with another broken one
Elegant and close to the center of the village
Nothing
Room was warm and comfortable. And hotel was in a great location, walking distance to everything
Nothing we didn’t like.
Hotel is very classic and beautiful by design (let down by the bad lighting), with well kept and beautiful garden grounds. Great location, good supply of car parking available. Staff were nice. Rooms were clean and comfy with good amenities.
The lighting in the hotel is truly a let down and ruins the classic architecture and furnishings of the hotel. It's a white LED light, that does not suit the hotel interior design at all and brings the quality of the hotel from an 8/10 potential to around a 4/10. We didn't have the breakfast buffet but did go and have a look to decide whether we wanted to, and would say that the selection looked quite lacking. No lifts but the staff on the first night helped us carry our luggage up the stairs which was nice.
Location
No air conditioning bad acess to shower having to ask for new towels bad food in restaurant bad staff in restaurant very poor coffee no food available for breakfast window had to held open with a stick
Location, friendly staff
Only one chair, blinking light on phone, no lift. Unsuitable for old people with heavy luggage. Room not cleaned completely, empty beer can left in bathroom on heater.
The roast meal was not a roast which was disappointing and no Kumara when told there was kumara
Great location, nice hotel just lacking a couple of things.
No one was on the desk when we wanted to check in so drove around for half an hour before trying again. Ran out of hot water while showering. When we had checked out but child needed to go toilet the lights wernt going in public ones so had to drive to public toilets on street instead.
Lovely sheets and towels...I guess the laundry service, not the hotel. Put some books in the actual library and open up spaces as lounge areas or if rooms that get no sun. If guests are staying at fetal nights as i did.... give them a nicer room with a view and sunshine.
Clean the bathroom blinds. Dirty. Toilet right behind the door and shower door both placed poorly.... the shower door needs to be designed differently so you can access the shower handle!
Great location. Friendly staff. Great value for money
Excellent location, warm and comfortable
. Instant coffee in rooms- for the price we paid, a Nespresso machine or even a plunger would have been a nice touch
Location was amazing, staff were fantastic and friendly.
The dining room was a bit cold considering it was mid winter was the only negative.
We were very pleased with the in house restaurant evening hours accomadating us after driving delays due to the heavy rain events that day. Also the staff assistance that evening and the lovely kitchen staff accomadating us both that evening and the next morning at breakfast
Perhaps a need for a large family unit where we could stay together but with separate bedrooms and bathrooms
location
Bed, service, out dated room, cutlery only for 1 person not 2
Restaurant staff were friendly and attentive
Bedroom outdated Dinner had to be sent back and ended not eating anything Attitude on checkout towards our meal the night before No one on reception when checking out Had to go and fine someone
Okay
Nothing
We had dinner and it was great. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Enjoyed staying here
It's not that I didn't like anything but some of the room just needed an update. Tv channels were not that great.
excellent staff
Bed super comfy and great location!
Bathroom was outdated and old. Only Freeview TV, hallways are old and need new carpeting. Heating was an electric heater...no heatpump or even wall heater! Fridge opened wrong way too.
I stayed as a lone female on a grab one deal for a bit of mid week rest and recoup after a difficult time. It was a lovely stay. I have stayed previously and noticed the big step up in service, rooms and restaurant from the prior owners. The room had been heated for arrival,, towels large and fluffy, staff helpful and friendly and professional. The brekkie was delicious and the bed enormous and super comfy. They also accommodated my request to arrive early and get my hot pools tickets before I checked in, so I got to spend extra time there too. Overall a big thumbs up and will be back soon.
Location
Old and our room was adjoining to another with bedroom on other side of wall could hear everything. Dated and needs updating. Bathroom vanity and carpet pretty bad
Comfiest bed iv ever slept in Beautiful grounds Close to everything
Exceptionally clean
