10/10 Exceptional

Superb accommodation in great location.
We are frequent visitors to Hanmer Springs and have stayed in a variety of accommodation types and locations. The St James is my favourite thus far. From the friendly and personal check-in experience to the generous luxurious, immaculately clean and well appointed room ,The St James did not disappoint. The location was fabulous - adjacent to the shops and town centre, close walking distance to the thermal pools, recreational activities, restaurants and cafes along with outdoor walking tracks and amenities. I will definitely be back , this time for a longer stay.

Andrew, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I stayed for three nights in an upstairs room facing the mountains. The staff are friendly and professional. Everything in our room was clean, comfortable and modern. I particularly liked the balcony and kitchenette. The bathroom was lovely too and it was a nice touch to be given towels specifically for the hot pools. Although the accommodation is located close to the heart of town but it’s still peaceful and relaxing.
