A strange mix of luxury and basic errors. Huge room, with many luxury features, but....had to transport our own bags on a luggage trolley to the room; only two hangers in the wardrobe (quickly remedied by staff); room safe didn’t open an when maintenance fixed that, wouldn't close, so given override key; door onto balcony wouldn't lock, but 1st floor and a quiet location so not a big deal but still unnerving; hot tub showing error messages so wouldn't work (real 1st world problem that but then its supposedly a 5* hotel); finally food in restaurant very average for the class of hotel. Great room but too many niggles.

Exceptional. We have travelled extensively in N.Z. and internationally, and this would be the quietest room we have stayed in. Well soundproofed, spacious, tastefully decorated, beautiful and expansive views from the room, and a comfortable bed combined ensuring a good nights sleep. Handy to Hanmer (about 5-6kms away) with all it's attractions. Only stayed 1 night, but will be back.
