This hotel is extremely dated. The rooms are old and carpets worn. Needs an uplift. Even the toilet seat is peeling paint…
Also simple things like making sure there isn’t rubbish and linen all over the halls and blocking stairs would be good..
Unless there is an update, won’t be staying there again

Not worth the money. The room was advertised with a balcony, there was no balcony. The windows didn’t even open.
Run down rooms!
Nice garden and location. That’s about it

Seen this hotel on last visit so decided to book a few nights on this visit. Very friendly and helpful staff. The hotel as an elegant feel about it, the gardens and pool are lovely. As it was warm we ate ourside at the restaurant, we chose to eat in the hotel because its prices were competitive with what was on offer in town. The food was lovely, well cooked and well presented. Continental breakfast was a good start to the day. Our superior king room was spacious and overlooked the garden. We usually book apts but this change to a hotel was a lovely experience, would book again when in hanmer springs

Loved the pool and the building! Ground is well maintained but rooms are quite outdated. Building smells old too. But overall, I like it enough to come back.
