Offering free Wi-Fi, and a guest lounge with a fireplace, Drifters Inn just 80 metres from the famous Hanmer Springs Thermal Reserve. It offers rooms with flat-screen satellite TV.

Drifters Inn Hanmer Springs is 2 minutes’ drive from Hanmer Springs Golf Course and Woodland Walk Recreation Reserve. Christchurch International Airport is 133 km away. Loved the open fire, room was clean and comfortable and the communal kitchen was great.

Each unit has a balcony offering mountain views, a flat-screen TV, a dining area, a well-fitted kitchenette and a private bathroom with shower, a hair dryer and free toiletries. A toaster, a fridge and kitchenware are also offered, as well as a kettle. At the guest house, units include bed linen and towels. Everything suited our requirements for accommodation whilst on the road. I would not recommend it for those without own transport though as it is a little way from shops & waterfront.

Each unit is fitted with air conditioning, a private bathroom and a well-fitted kitchenette including a microwave, toaster, fridge and kitchenware. At the bed and breakfast, each unit comes with bed linen and towels. Excellent location! Great view from the deck towards the mountains with the llamas grazing in front. For breakfast there were cornflakes, homemade granola, milk, yoghurt and peaches. The granola was delicious! The room was spacious and had everything we needed. Added bonus were the train tracks running right next to the accommodation (if you enjoy trains, but if not don't worry, there's not a lot of trains per day so it won't get too noisy).
