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
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 booked the retreat for my partners birthday. We read the reviews after booking with non refundable and thought to ourselves ohh no what are we in for anyhow our stay was nothing like what we had read. We were very happy with our choice in stay. I'm a clean freak and after the reading the reviews, nervous was an under statement.... it wasn't immaculate but overall was 9/10. I hope this review helps others when looking for accommodation in Hanmer. We booked the spa bath room! Thankyou 🙂
The place is opposite the Hanmer Springs water park. It’s is very handy for the shops and restaurants and also on the trail to the lookout point.
The room was nice and met our requirements. The room had dining and a breakout area near the tv, so plenty of space.
The staff were very friendly and offered us to use the hotel towels for the water park which was very kind as we had checked out.
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 very well appointed, spacious, clean holiday home. Was super comfortable and perfect for our large family. The location is beautiful and very quiet. The hosts are super accomodating and we so nice to take us out to see the Mares and Foals - who are even friendlier! We will definitely stay here again next time we are in Hanmer.
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
It’s a good value room to stay in Hanmer, good location, only few minutes walking to everywhere including spa, pool, restaurants!! Good shower, strong pressure. We even have extra towels for our activities. Staffs are nice and friendly, tried their best to help you
Great place surrounded by forest, reminded me of school trips as a kid! Cabins are basic but cheap, kitchens are spacious and very well equipped. Many showers and toilets, you never need to wait. Close to walking tracks. We had a great time.
Peaceful stay in Hanmer, very close to the forest park / sculpture walk. Would be great for kids / families as there is a trampoline/play amenities. The accommodation met all our needs & the Easter eggs were a nice touch.
Out of all the motels we stayed at in Hanmer I would rate this one of the best! It's a lovely motel with the bathroom and kitchen quite separate from the bedroom and it was very convenient having the oven to cook in.
Our room was immaculate and had everything we needed for a short break away. I loved the fact that there was a mini kitchen in our room. Underfloor heating was a real luxury.
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.
