It seemed to need a bit of maintenance I.e the tap on the spa bath needed reattached and fresh coat of paint near spa pool outside but in general really good.

A charming Swiss chalet-like hostel full of character, warmth, and nice touches for guests. Tristan is a natural at hospitality, with an innate sense of guest need. Warm, cosy rooms, a log fire, comfy beds and armchairs, a well equipped kitchen, a place radiating backpacker hospitality at its best. Highly recommended. Will remember it well.

I grew up in Christchurch but now live in Melbourne so it was nice to take my partner there. Our family spent many stays in Hanmer growing up in the 80's.
It is nice to see that Hanmer still has the same charm and feel of Swiss Alps.
There is still mini golf; Hanmer Hotel and the walk up conical hill- all the things I remember.
It has grown and I see a lot more tourism but the Alpine resort feel especially in winter is still there....

A quiet Canterbury town with a restorative atmosphere.
A quiet Canterbury town with a restorative atmosphere. It has has not yet succumbed to big business high rise accomodation and over- commercialism, as seen in Wanake and Queenstown. It’s only 90 mins drive from Christchurch and its international airport. It’s cool in both senses. In a secluded valley off the main highway. Thoroughly recommend it for visitors to New Zealand. You can sit in hot pools, go mountain biking or walking. And there’s a farm animal zoo close by for the children. The adventurous can go bungee jumping. There’s skiing close by. And 4-wheel drives shirt and long.

Hanmer Springs is a great break away.
Hanmer Springs is a great break away. For most people, the Hot Pools, nice accommodation and restaurants are the main attractions. Our only negative is that as we drive a Battery Electric Vehicle, there is no fast charger in Hanmer Springs. There are two slow chargers at the pools, and we made use of one of those while we had a swim. The nearest fast charger is at Culverden and there's always a queue in our experience.

The Hot Pools are a great drawcard, always popular.
The Hot Pools are a great drawcard, always popular. Some great restaurants, cafes and bars. Lots of trees, provide welcome shade in summer. Plenty of walking and cycling tracks. Water sports - rafting, jet boats, fishing etc. Craft market on a Saturday. Always a busy place for locals and tourists, so book early.

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
Beautiful motel rooms with everything you could need. The team was very welcoming on arrival and we were lucky enough to be upgraded to a very big family room. Though we didn't even use the 2 bedrooms as we were a couple it was very spacious and we will definitely book this room next time we are in Hanmer with a bigger group as it would be perfect. The views from the master bed were stunning! Sadly we were only staying for one night - we wished we could have stayed longer. Will definitely be back, thank you team Scenic Views!
The suites are very large and really comfortable with everything you could need. The bathrooms are fabulous and include a spa bath, which we didn't use. c.7km out of Hanmer Springs you are a bit 'captive' for dinner but great location if you want to relax and explore the area. Dinner was good and not too pricey - we had the lamb shank and parmesan encrusted salmon. The hotel was quiet when we stayed so there were not many staff members evident. We only stayed one night so didn't make use of the spa etc.
I had a really great stay at Kakapo Lodge. The staff were very welcoming and helpful when I checked in and out. The room I stayed in was lovely and had everything I needed. The whole lodge was very clean and tidy and there was ample parking space at the lodge. The lodge was easy to find and right by the thermal pools, which was great. I would definitely stay there again when in Hanmer Springs.
We spent one night in Hanmer Springs during a very busy weekend and the hospitality venues were coping well. All the hotels were full and we were glad we booked early. Settlers Hotel was a professional operation; the room was well equipped and spotlessly clean with a comfy bed and lovely bed linen. They supplied extra towels to use when we sampled the hot springs.
A really comfortable place to stay in beautiful part of NZ. Hanmer Springs has a ski village feel with every building well cared for and in good condition. The apartment was a short walk to the Springs and easy access to walks in the local hills. This is a place that Kiwis go to relax. We had a great time with them.
Everything was clean etc..... Location good. As we booked very late, we were lucky go get this studio motel..... but it was very small..... I would not book it again (this studio) no comfortable seating and cramped.... but we were happy with it for 2 nights. We would stay at the motels again though
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.
The locations was superb. Hanmer springs isn’t very large, but this is right in the thick of the township. Walking distance to everything.
The hotel looks very grand from the front and the gardens are nice.
The garden villas look like the place to book here.
It was our 1st time staying here, it is a beautiful camp site, with great cabins and camping facilities. The management is fantastic and so very friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be back!!
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
Lovely character heritage home just a 5 minute walk to the hot pools. We had one of the cottages, very clean and quiet. Lovely hostess! Wish we had stayed longer.
