“Great value for money stay in central Hanmer, close to everything the town has to offer.”
Great location in central Hanmer, walking distance to everywhere. Nice private unit separated from the main hotel, in the garden area, with it's own allocated parking space. Nice comfy bed and pillows, reasonably spacious room with nice clean bathroom. Shower is over bath. Perfectly adquate for a night or two. Nothing luxurious, but clean and tidy with ample room. Good value for money. Would stay again.

“Lovely hotel and beautiful location.”
We have stayed a few times at the Edit. The location is amazing. About a minute to shops across the road and about 2 minutes to famous Hanmer Springs Spa. We like to stay in room 109 on ground level. Great room with twin beds and very comfy.

“Very nice - thank you”
We couldn’t get the NZ TV Free channels - was frustrating. The huge spotlight in driveway was so annoying. We would have like to have dined in house but it was too expensive.
