Amazing backpackers!
Amazing spacious backpackers! Clean and well equipped kitchen with ample lounge & outdoor seating. Our private bedroom was huge but we were told we were actually in the smallest room (was hard to believe). Bathroom large and clean. We would definitely recommend to others and stay again next time we’re in Hanmer Springs.

Great ensuite family room, perfect for our 2 night stay. Good parking and great kitchen facilities to share with other guests. Richard was really knowledgeable and helpful with guiding us to local activities! I highly recommend and won't hesitate to stay again.
