Photos on the website are misleading. Property is in poor condition. The bed was good. Really disappointed with this choice. It should be a 2 star hotel, not 3.

If you want just a basic place to stay at a cheap price this place is great. Especially if you have dogs. I paid $258 for 2 nights mid week which included $40 for having my 2 dogs stay. I was in room 303 which was a spa chalet. I loved the spa room off the downstairs bedroom which had a queen bed that looked reasonably new and was super comfortable. Upstairs was 2 single beds that also looked newish. The bathroom was clean and quite modern. It had everything i needed for my stay. The entire property itself looks very outdated and definitely not the ritz so dont stay here if you have high standards. The price reflects the property and it was perfect for me and my dogs and I would definitely stay here again for that reason. If you want ultra clean and flash then go elsewhere and pay the high price for it. Lots of negative comments on google for this place but I was happy with my spa chalet for the price and to be able to have my dogs stay with me.

The property has a charm about it, although a little run down. It is a shame the history behind the location isn't told to visitors, like the army camp, the grey geyser. I think this would make the location more appealing. It's go or lots of history and it's a wonderfully to quite location witj be easy access to o amazing walks as long the Waikato.

The staff member I dealt with was lovely. I think we stayed in the same room in 2020 (204). The bathroom desperately needed upgrading then and is worse now. It was cleaned as much as possible, but framing and the shower is bubbling and crumbling away. The soap dish was broken with the remnant left. In the kitchen, the scrubbing brush was filthy and old, with the dishwasher liquid so watered down as to be useless. The shabby chic look is because the place has been let go, rather than being an intentional design choice. It wouldn’t take much to lift the standard.

This was my second stay at Grandeur Thermal Spa Resort. My previous stay was about 14 months prior. The facilities were definitely not a five star stay then, but they have gone significantly downhill. The shower in our room had standing water as if it had not drained from the person who stayed there before. The corner that had the appliances smelled like something was burning and we could hear electrical crackling, so we opted to unplug all the appliances for the night for fear of an electrical fire. The smell of the room was also incredibly unpleasant. It smelled old and mildewy and was very off-putting. Staff interactions were average, and we were told a bit brusquely that the front desk attendant did not like to stay at the desk after 6:30 to wait for people to arrive.

Although the property looked a bit run down externally, the room we stayed in was clean and spacious, and the beds were very comfortable. Cooking facilities in the room were adequate for our needs. It was conveniently within walking distance of the spa park. The price was very affordable for travellers on a budget.
