Set in Hanmer Springs, Oakview offers 5-star accommodation with a garden. The hotel also offers free WiFi and free private parking.

At the hotel, all rooms include a wardrobe and a patio with a mountain view. Complete with a private bathroom fitted with a shower and free toiletries, all guest rooms at Oakview have a flat-screen TV and air conditioning, and selected rooms also offer a terrace. The units will provide guests with a fridge. What’s not to say … INCREDIBLE… The Kora suite is such a beautiful 😍 place wish we could have stayed longer. If you are staying in Hanmer Springs this is the number one place to stay. Easy walk to the centre of town where there are plenty of bars and restaurants and the most comfortable high spec homely accommodation to come back to. If I could score this place more I would. Highly recommend.

The room is like home itself(but a more cleaner and artistic one) and the bath water pressure was soo comforting. Highly recommended to anyone who vivid Christchurch. 非常可爱又舒适的体验!房东很好,推荐~
