Loved our stay at the St James and would and have already recommended to people.
Very modern rooms, we had a deluxe studio on the first floor which had a balcony we could sit out on and enjoy the surrounds. Bathroom and kitchen tiled floors were heated which was so nice to step onto , a real treat. Kitchenette are fully stocked and self catering can easily be done, loved having a water purifier tap in the room which I have not come across at other places.

Beautiful, peaceful and worth every cent. We had a wonderful stay at Hanmer Glamping and would happily book again. The dome was beautifully decorated, with lovely touches throughout that made it feel really special rather than just a place to sleep. It was also much more spacious than we expected, so we had plenty of room to spread out and unwind.
The highlight was waking up to the mountain views each morning. It's so peaceful out there, and we had complete privacy for our whole stay, which...

My husband & I stayed for 2 nights, we were made very welcome from the moment we arrived thru to our departure time, the couple were very informative, helpful, friendly & approachable. We loved the style, & comfort of the main house & our accommodation. We ordered breakfast for both days, the service, quality of food, presentation of our food was outstanding & cost was reasonable compared to other places we have stayed. We would highly recommend Cheltenham House. We look forward to staying...

Taking into consideration, the price, the location and the quality of the accommodation this must be the best place in Hanmer Springs. Just across the road from the thermal pools and less that 100 metres from good pubs and restaurants. We liked Drifters Inn so much that this is the 2nd time that we have stayed here in 6 months.
