Set among mature trees and surrounded by the Southern Alps, this beautifully restored local landmark has been transformed into a resort with outdoor swimming pool, tennis and petanque courts.

The Mountain View’s were beautiful and the walking track...
The Mountain View’s were beautiful and the walking track varied from easy to difficult. The town was very pleasant, clean and well taken care of. The pools were wonderful and especially enjoyed being able to swim laps in the big pool which was never crowded. Overall it was a very pleasant place for a vacation

Hanmer Springs is lovely.
Hanmer Springs is lovely. This motel overpriced, cheap and nasty. False advertising using "premium".
Hanmer is popular but don't resort to booking at this motel if you find others booked out.

Nice small village with plenty to do.
Nice small village with plenty to do. Many walking and bike trails, nice shops and the Thermal pools were great for all ages. Plenty to keep families amused.
The whole town had a nice vib.
The down side would have to be the cost of eating out at the cafes and restaurants.

Great thermal pools.
Great thermal pools. My wife booked had two sessions in the spa rooms - a facial and a massage - while she was doing that I ventured on the new waterslides (at the age of 71) - they are now included in your admission charge. As we we were staying for two nights, we booked a two day ticket to the pools, this is good value and it's great to be able to pop to the pools early in the morning when there are fewer people around.
One evening we had a good meal at the Hanmer Springs Hotel (where we stayed), the second night we tried the Spice Village Indian restaurant, which I thoroughly recommend.
Great lunch one day at the Powerhouse cafe - by far the best cafe in Hanmer in my opinion.
We also went on the quad bikes at Hanmer Attractons - we were able to choose a quad buggy which is a two-person vehicle. This is well organised, with an instructor/guide who puts the emphasis on safety.
This is one of the best motels we have stayed in. From the moment we arrived the hosts made us welcome and pointed us in the direction of local things to do which was very helpful. They upgraded us to a superb suite with great views and lots of space. Very comfortable bed and a great wet floor shower. We will definitely stay there again. It was on;y a five minute walk to the hot pools, cafes and restaurants. We were able to park our car and walk for our three day stay.
The host, Tristan, was super friendly. He welcomes us, walked us to the property, explained to us where was what, and also a bit about Hanmer and Kaikoura. It was a very good experience. The house itself was nice and 'cosy' with separate rooms, and a good sized kitchen. There was even a dryer which was fantastic. Five minutes walk from the springs which was fantastic!
Massive sized television which had Netflix! Loved it!
The room was thoughtfully and tastefully furnished and we spent a very comfortable night here, wishing we could have stayed longer. The property is a short, easy drive from Hanmer Springs, where we spent time at the pools and had a good dinner. The next morning we took a lovely walk in the forest before leaving the area. Hanmer High County Views is idyllically and peacefully situated, with wonderful views from the room.
I've stayed in many motels thought-out nz and this was exceptional accommodation it was the cleanest I've seen beds were so comfortable it was quiet, lovely people who run it and so close to restaurants and town .Information was given about things to do in hamner on arrival .parking was excellent as well i think i can say this accommodation was classed as luxury well worth the money .we will be back
Lovely modern and comfortable accommodation in park-like grounds. The owners are super nice people who make you feel at home and will go out of their way to be helpful. I liked it so much that I came back for a few more nights. I've stayed in 3 other Hanmer Springs hotels/motels previously and this is my favourite. Also the best value for money.
It was the second time we'd stayed here, and we chose it because it's just over the road from the thermal springs. The staff are lovely and the rooms are warm and comfortable. There's a very well equipped kitchen that guests can use, and a large guest lounge. Would definitely recommend for a stay in Hanmer Springs.
The location great, The rooms were in a great part of the Hotel Beds were comfortable , The Meal & service was just the best , we were very happy with our stay , We did feel very sorry for the lady on check in as people were very unhappy that rooms were not ready, I would recommend your Hotel to Friends
The room was clean and we liked it had all the bits and bobs we could need which other motels often forget (iron, corkscrew etc). The managers/owners were very friendly and accommodating too. Great location too; within walking distance of the pools, bars, restaurants and walks.
The reception manager personally escorted me to our room, which was a nice touch, and offered us towels to use at the Hanmer Spa.
Parking spaces were wide.
Once inside we were greeted by chocolates laid against a pinecone arrangement on the bed, and tasteful décor.
Ladies...there is a full length mirror. Not many motels have these. Lots of space and comfortable. Restaurants, cafes and hot pools in walking distance. Older motel competing with lots of new ones so for this reason a little over priced.
Loved the kitchen and cooking facilities. Under floor heating was a bonus. Shower was amazing. Pillows were great…not hard like most motels. Bed was clean and warm. Sky channels were good
Very enjoyable stay. Room was extremely comfortable, wonderful breakfast spread, good location at a short drive/long walk into town. Would stay here again if traveling to Hanmer Springs.
The hotel management is very nice
Our room been having lights on and heater on when we arrived, it’s cold now in the night time in winter
So we’re very happy and thankful with that
