Overpriced, not a 5-start facility but great location
Pros:

Location

Cons:

We were checked in by the receptionist. Unfortunately we were not advised that the heatpump wasn't working. All we had was one little space heater for a big apartment. Dispite them not being fully booked we got the apartment witha broken heatpump. After complaining the following day we were given three two more small heaters. The first night was freezing with frost outside. Teh blind in teh bedroom was broken too so we had this blue light from teh outside streaming in.
We also found that the property was dirty - lots of hair on floor and in bathroom, dead flies behind doors. Their room service was to onlt to give new towels and top up coffee. When we left we were not asked how our stay was. Not much value for money, they class themselves as 5 star accommodation, it is far from that. Can not recommend.

Very enjoyable stay, the 2 bedroom apartment was spacious and comfortable.
Pros:

Close to central Hanmer

Cons:

The only slight niggle I would have is the shower over the very large spa bath was quite difficult to get in and out of.

What’s the properties in a great location? It is getting to the point of needing some TLC and proper maintenance.we had
Pros:

Great location

Cons:

We had issues that resulted in our apartment not being cleaned on any of the days. All the people in our party of guests felt that it was due to the management not being bothered.
