The grounds of the hotel are gorgeous, with huge trees. The location is amazing as you can walk to the hot springs, shops and eateries. The rooms are OK for the price, which is good value in comparison. However, as it's an old building the floorboards creak loudly in the hallway and the room and there is no air con. At first, we were placed in a room overlooking the car park and liquor store, but the staff member at the desk was obliging and managed to change us to the other side, even though it was a busy time of year.

The rooms are well appointed . We did not eat there . If you struggle with stairs there is NO LIFT . The least the hotel could do is put a note at their reception to ask for help with luggage . I’m not sure how many rooms are on the ground floor. Surely a lift could be installed in this spacious hotel .

Door lock not attatched properly and due to this was difficult to work. Windows rattled in the wind all night. Im not u fussy person but for the price i think deff one of the most overpriced for what you get in the Hanmer area. And i do stay in Hanmer at least 3 times a month for work so i have seen most motels and some holiday homes. Room was clean and tidy tho.

Room and beds were very nice. Disappointed that the restaurant was closed to House guests! and so we had to walk down the road to get dinner, not a biggie yet House guests should have preference. Staff friendly and great site.

NB: we ended up at Edit just as a major storm warning was issued. The whole town was battered and power was out for 2.5 days. Edit has a backup generator, which powered the restaurant, shared spaces, heating etc. We were well catered for and staff put in extra hours to keep us comfortable. Roads were closed so fresh staff couldnt get in or out. Edit Hanmer went above and beyond during difficult times.
