Very good facility, nice and quiet and walking distance to town and pools
The delightful cottage was ideal for our stay. The host was friendly and helpful and the central location was only a short walk to the pools and restaurants.
Nothing.
Excellent space, great location

Lovely place and lovely hosts
Very clean & comfortable. Great hosts. Very close to town & the hot pools.
Nothing!
A very well appointed accomodation. Hostess Marie very helpful explaining all the facilities.
Wifi was very limited inside the apartment.
need a hose on the shower
Was a lovely place and so central, would definitely stay again and highly recommend. Thanks so much Marie, loved our stay :)
Location was excellent, very central to the hot springs. Garden was fabulous (though it was wet so didn’t have chance to use it) Parking was easy Spacious bathroom with warmed floor and towel heater Very friendly hosts
Was a bit dark inside
The location was excellent with just a short walk to the hot pools, shops and restaurants etc. the room was large, well equipped and spotlessly clean. Marie was an excellent host and made us feel very welcome.
Highly recommended. Friendly and courteous host, beautiful garden, modern, private and comfortable room with very nice decor.
Very close to everything in Hanmer
The location was perfect. Central within Hanmer. The property itself is running, with beautiful gardens, a private seating area for the external rooms situated toward the rear of the gardens.
Absolutely nothing.
We had a lovely little cabin type accomodations in the garden and it was so clean and had every we needed
Nothing just sorry we couldn't stay longer
Une découverte qui vaut le détour! Dans une petite ville, située dans un jardin de type anglais, cette maison d'hôte était vraiment confortable et super! Les propriétaires ont aussi un superbe accueil, bref, une superbe expérience dans un endroit calme et confortable! Tout est à proximité, vous pourrez marcher pour aller aux bains puis pour aller manger, vraiment bien situé 😎!

Sauber und freundlich
Beautiful back yard and lovely owner
Location & dog friendly! We always enjoy staying @ Cheltenham House! Thank you, Hamish & Rebecca
Location, size, fitout and the hosts were lovely!
Location fantastic .. no breakfast
Marie and her husband made us very welcome, it was great to be able to take our dog and be so close to the Springs.
Nothing it was great
Marie and Len are wonderfully warm and helpful hosts. Beautiful grounds and gardens - a peaceful haven in the middle of Hanmer only 5 minutes walk from shops, cafes and hot pools. Our Garden facing room was stylish cosy, spacious and very comfortable - perfect for our short mid winter stay. Great to have such lovely accomodation that welcomes our small dog too. We look forward to returning soon.
Beautifully appointed room and we were made very welcome. So pleased they allow pets.
Allowing pets. So close to town
Very Central
The lighting into the property was poor when we walked back in the dark from the Pools everything else was good.
No breakfast It is no longer included So we feel ripped off False advertising
Beautiful setting and gardens
Lovely place beautiful gardens quite short walk to everything you need Only 1 thing they did advertise as a BnB but no breakfast 😕 As they are supporting locals thats awesome but remove Breakfast
Advertising on the websight should more accurately reflect the current available option for accommodation. The current web sight is misleading.
Beautiful room and nice surroundings. Owner was wonderful
Stayed in one of the garden cottages. very warm, quiet and comfortable. Short walk to eateries and the pools. Our lovely hostess provided towels to take to the pools. Outdoor area lovely for morning coffee. Off street parking easy to access and right next to the cottage.
Nothing.
Wonderful situation, beautifully presented, our fault didn’t realize no knives forks etc so couldn’t really eat in. I think discouraged. We travelled around south island for nearly 3 weeks this was our dearest accommodation, and believe it’s because of the location. Kaikora, Cromwell, Christchurch were just as well presented but much cheaper. Having said this right in town near restaurant ‘s and pool .
Lovely garden studio to stay in. Nice garden setting. Staff very kind and helpful. Would stay again if returning.
The location was perfect -- a very short walk (a block) to restaurants and shops in this lovely small town with many things to do: mountain biking, hikes, spa, thermal baths (with great water rides), and more. Our guest cabin was behind the owner's home, but with privacy, fresh air, parking and helpful advice if needed.
It is a pleasant vintage house, pity we were in a chalet in the garden. It wasn't far to walk to the spa pools.
The advertising. It is clearly advertised as a bed and breakfast, but does not provide breakfast. The Booking.com description mentions bed and breakfast four times. Even the board outside announces 'breakfast served in suites'. On arrival, we were told to go and buy it from a local restaurant. Had we known that breakfast was not provided, we would have gone elsewhere - especially at the price we paid. It was expensive for what it provided and seems to be living on its previous reputation.
This is the perfect stay for your Hamner Springs getaway. Large, comfortable, clean room on a beautiful piece of property. Walking distance to everything. The owners are so kind and friendly. We were so happy with our choice to stay here and would definitely stay here again if we returned. Do not hesitate, this place is simply perfect.
Lovely, friendly, welcoming, and concerned proprietress who cares for her facilities and her guests.
We loved the location, close to the village and set in beautiful gardens. Host was very friendly and welcoming
Charming small hotel and hosts.
Loved the location, loved our room, loved the grounds and especially loved our host Marie.
Everything perfect
WiFi poor
The privacy and facilities provided
Personal choice but the bed was too soft
Host was brilliant with telling us everything and things to do during our one night stay. Very friendly and just such a nice person.
Hosts were able to allow us to book in when we needed as had spa booked even though they would not be there until later. Underfloor heating, dressing gowns we were able to use. Very close to the shops and experiences we had booked.
Nothing to report
Lovely, cozy cottage & beautiful gardens. Enjoyed our short stay with our foxy, Buddy. Will definitely return for a longer stay!
A very warm welcome. Ideally situated. Marie was very knowledgable and gave us good tips on local attractions and places to eat. She was on hand if needed but allowed us privacy .
Nothing negative to say. We would certainly stay there again.
Location perfect
Nothing
We enjoyed the private and quiet garden location. The cottage was spacious and comfortable and we loved the heated bathroom floor.
Location and privacy
No complaints
Lovely quiet, spacious room, park the car walk everywhere. Lovely host beautiful garden settings & nice outdoor area for relaxing
Bed was a bit hard but that is a personal opinion
Could walk to everything we wanted to see and do in Hamner. The large garden setting just caped off the location
Very welcoming and nice location
Welcoming and great location
lovely warm and comfortable with a beautiful garden. Great Central location
Beautiful garden setting and lovely hosts. Dog friendly
A wonderful cottage with wonderful, hospitable hosts!
Fantastic location. Hosts very friendly Wonderful that it is dog friendly
Great location. Fabulous shower, comfortable bed. The grounds are gorgeous and secure for my dog, she loved it too. We were warmly welcomed and the whole experience was exceptional given that it’s so very hard in New Zealand to find somewhere beautiful to stay with a dog. Will definitely return. Highly recommended.
A small space to make breakfast - with a toaster perhaps? I prefer a larger cup for my morning drink.
Closeby to the centre, beuatiful studio which we stayed in.
It was beautiful and warm when we arrived and the lovely lady who is there is very helpful
The bed was not very nice to sleep in
Warm, clean, and well-appointed. Excellent hosts. Perfect location.
Cozy and relaxing after days out exploring walks. Very hospitable hosts.

Lovely room, comfy bed and the owner was friendly and welcoming
all good
Excellent location. Very private. Lovely grounds. Peaceful
No complaints
Great location with access to walk at one end of short street and springs and cafe/restaurants at other end. Lovely cottage in back garden. Good sized room with all amenities. Friendly helpful hosts. Highly recommend.
We had a comfortable, warm and a very pleasant three nights in the studio, with the owners being very helpful. We had to leave early for the ferry and unfortunately didn't have a chance to say thanks to them or fatewell. A very central place to stay in a lovely garden.
