Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Although this is a lovely place and very clean it is expensive without breakfast. Hot tub was lovely. I would like to say however there was an officious and unfriendly manager who was not a welcoming host, but only critical about parking ( we never blocked anyone in ) and turning on the heating etc. This was unecessary and unwelcoming.

The title of my room is a ‘superior king’. I have not see a room this bare of amenities in a long time. No mini fridge, only one chair, no work area, no table, no desk. I would hate to have experienced the non-superior room. Any pictures of nice sitting areas, those are common spaces. Your room, will be tiny and extremely basic.

After dawdling through the alpine beauty of Haast Pass, and descending down SH6, passing-by Lake Hawea to Wanaka, we were challenged to find our accommodation. The lodge is positioned in the south part of the town, off Ardmore St, the waterfront, driving up Helwick St. passed several shops on both sides, crossing two roads Brownston and Upton, to Warren Street, down sharply on the left. We were given a spacious room, with a large king bed, and an outside seating area with views towards Cardrona Resort and Mt Aspiring National Park. There were a couple of areas, the kitchen/dining room and a sitting room/lounge, shared with other residents and a reception manned mid-afternoon until late afternoon/ early evening. Access later was via a secure digital locked door. The arrangements were unusual, but perfectly comfortable and quiet on the edge of the town centre, with restaurants and shops within easy walking down Helwick Street. We had time to swim in the lake on the two days we stayed in Wanaka, both days hot around 30c in mid-afternoon, relieved by plunging into the icy lake wqters. The experience contrasted with the daily cold-water swim our daughter had introduced us to back up in the Bay of Plenty, it was noticeably clearer, not buoyant like sea-water.

We stayed at the Wanaka Springs for 2 nights - booked through an agent as part of a New Zealand fly/drive holiday. I don't see how it can be classed as a hotel with no dining/bar facilities (communal kitchen to cook your own food). Our room was small, the bed uncomfortable and the shower temperature lukewarm most of the time. It is well situated close to Wanaka but otherwise very disappointing

Had a very nice two night stay in the "Buchanan's room" which was very clean and comfortable. The bathroom had a wonderful walk-in shower. There is a lovely peaceful communal lounge and large kitchen/dining space. Cameron the manager was great to deal with. The property is well located - in a quiet street about 5mins walk from town. The only negatives would be that the room was very hot and the only way we could cool it down was to have the deck door open which we were reluctant to do during the night. Also there was no microwave in the kitchen and a small fridge in our room would have been good in which to keep our wine rather than putting it in the communal fridge. We did however enjoy our stay there and would return.

Great location, very quiet street, just a few minutes walk to downtown Wanaka. Spotless throughout, well equipped, with a roomy lounge, huge kitchen dining area for all guests, and extensive decks ,patios and garden, even a stream! Cameron the manager, was exceptionally helpful and friendly. We’ll be back again for a longer stay and can recommend to anyone. We have no connection with this lodge except as paying guests.

We loved our two night stay here. The room was clean and quiet. The host was friendly and efficient. We enjoyed a dip in the spa pool. We had white robes and spa towels provided to use. They don’t do breakfast anymore but it is only a 5 min walk into the town where there are plenty of dining options.

This is a very pleasant small B&B in a residential area of Wanaka. It is about a 10 minute walk to the lake front. The rooms are spacious enough, clean and comfortable, without being luxurious. The hosts are also very pleasant, and an excellent breakfast is cooked to order. Recommended.

Perfectly clean, perfectly acceptable - but sitting on the "ordinary" side of standards. The room was big enough, the breakfast was good enough, the hosts were friendly enough - it just didn;t have any kind of "wow" factor.

We only stayed one night but were very impressed with the accommodation, our room was clean ,comfortable and we enjoyed the hot tub in the garden. The town is a short walk away so we could leave the car and walk to the restaurant. Breakfast was a real treat, cooked in front of us by our hosts who were friendly and welcoming.
