We booked last minute for a one night stay and found it was great. Nice staff, breakfast was included and rate was very reasonable. Would recommend for any length visit.

Staff were very courteous. It’s only a 5-10 min walk into central Hamner Springs. The 5 stage restaurant and bar next door was great
