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.
Just 300 metres from the Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools, Kakapo Lodge boasts a guest lounge with a log fireplace and a large communal kitchen and dining area.

The location was superb with an easy walk to Hanmer shops, restaurants and hot pools. The lodge was very clean and warm with a lovely sunny deck and fire roaring in the reception area. The staff were very friendly and went out of their way to give us a car park to ensure security for our mountain bikes.

Fabulous views, underfloor heating magic, room service very good. Location close to centre of Hanmer Springs, walking distance to the thermal pools. Will sure come back to stay at this property. Could see the snow on the mountain tops. Frosty when we stayed but sunny days. Loved the autumn colours at this time of the year. Easy drive from Christchurch.

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.
The rooms are in need of redecorating. The couch was torn and worn. The room was due for a repaint. In general it was looking worn and run down.
Once again the room slept 4 and there was only enough plates etc for 4. I really would like to see more crockery in hotels/motels. There were only 3 forks and all the crockery was miss matched. They only supplied one small dishwash liquid for our stay. It never got replenished we had to ask for it.
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 booked a cabin for 3 nights. Us and our 2yr old and 4yr old. The cabin was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It has a lovely little deck area then onto a lawn which was perfect for the children. A playground in the main camping area also fab. Toilets and showers really close. Everything was clean and the owners are lovely. We had such a great time.
Lovely location on the edge of town with beautiful views especially at sunset. We were upgraded which was very much appreciated. Everything spotlessly clean, looked brand new. Emma the owner manager very helpful & welcoming. Hanmer Springs is lovely, recommend the walk up Conical Hill in the morning, & the thermal baths in the afternoon.
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.
Beautiful lodge set on the hill with an amazing view of Hanmer village and basin. Our room was very comfortable and offered lovely views of the manicured gardens with the birds frequenting the birdhouses below our deck off our room. Breakfast was excellent and our hosts were very welcoming. We highly recommend 8 on Oregon!!
This place is so special - one of the most relaxing and well tended motels we have stayed in NZ, would stay here again in a heart beat. Our cottage overlooked the golf course, all facilities are well appointed and thought out and spotlessly clean and the gardens are immaculate.
2km outside the city go grab yourself a little slice of nature. The cabins are cheap, well furnished, comfortable, and come with heating. The facilities are all better than I ever would have expected. Skip the fancy overpriced hotels and come here for a lovely stay.
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
This was a great tidy and clean unit that was perfect for our quick stay in Hanmer. It was close to the main street and hot pools and had plenty of parking. The staff was lovely, and it was great having a little kitchen to use.
The location was perfect for all the things that Hanmer Springs has to offer. The staff were amazing with suggestions for things to do. The kids had a lovely time choosing and watching movies borrowed from the reception.
Good friendly, relaxed, family atmosphere. This is not a luxury site but it is comfortable and the owner makes an effort to ensure the kids experience a good old fashioned camping vibe.
Great value for money.
High quality hotel. If you like luxury in a very tranquil setting then this is your place. Rooms were excellent. Dinner at the lodge was also very high quality with excellent service
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.
The most comfortable bed I ever had in a hotel! Great looking room, clean, welcoming staff. They installed a portacot in the room for us. And the price was so cheap!
