The motel is located close to the pools and is in a quiet location. We booked a room with a separate king sized bedroom and balcony. The room was good and had pretty much everything you would want to be able to cook except a dishwasher. Very close to the forest walks - I would recommend the sculpture walk. There are great food options in Hanmer and several bars.

Friendly staff, the 2-bedroom family unit was perfect for what we needed. It was warm, quiet, clean; my bed was so comfortable! The shower pressure was great. Had a hot plate for us to make dinner on, space for 4 people to be in easily, and although around the corner from the Springs - the walk was easy, quick and because it's nestled that little bit back from the main road it was extra quiet! They gave us towels to use for the pools. Honestly one of the best motels I've stayed at - great for families in that 2 bedroom unit!

We enjoyed a wonderful stay Settlers Boutique Motel over a weekend. The property is exceptionally quiet, set back from the busy main area of Hanmer, but close enough to walk to all amenities including the pools, shopping, restaurants and bars. The room was spacious and spotlessly clean. The friendly staff ensured we had a perfect stay! Would absolutely recommend staying here - we will definitely be back!

This place was amazing. They took good care of me and the room was beautiful. They have a DVD player and allow you to borrow DVDs so it felt nostalgic. They even gave me a towel to borrow for the hot pools. If I'm ever in the area again, I'll be staying here again

Nice place to stay

Very convenient. Across the street from the thermal pools and just off the main drag. There are nice towels available to use att the pool as well. The one problem is that it says it has netflix but the wifi does not have enough bandwidth to support streaming. It was buffering all the time.
