Grandeur Thermal Spa Resort

8/10 Good

"There was ample parking for my vehicle and trailer next to the chalet."

Silver Fern Lodge

4/10 Poor

"It's not expensive, so don't expect 5 start... but it also doesn't have a reception open in until well after lunch. Which isn't helpful if you do something silly like us and leave a key in the room and can't get back in. The rooms are tired and the place needs a bit of renovation work. TV works but doesn't connect to internet (no netflix, even though it's an option) and it sits on an old TV cabinet designed for a 90's tv. If you just need a night, in a clean functional room and don't care for a TV then it's fine for the price. Just keep expectations in check."
