I really appreciated the variety and number of pillows on the bed, and the continental breakfast was better than most including croissants, muffins, meat & cheese, and some very nice passionfruit smoothies.

This is just a motor lodge motel and not a retreat resort as advertised. Pictures of next door restaurant are used to falsify a lounge and reception to make it look like a hotel. The restaurant advertises its "neighbour" as accommodation - yet the motel makes it look like its part of its establishment. Rooms are clean but bathrooms quite dated. Over priced but i think alot of Hanmer is.
