“Too far from town”

Disappointed with this hotel, especially the bedroom and bathroom size. Built in 1885 it has been renovated but part of that process has been inserting a minute bathroom into the bedroom. Consequently the wash basin is UK cloakroom size and the bedroom is not large enough for the double bed ( actually 2 3footers put together. Drawer space? Only the bedside cabinets. Breakfast service was slow and although we were on a B & B deal, only one cup of coffee was included in the package. Highway 5 runs close by -hence lorry noise at night and there is a communal balcony along the rear of the hotel so we were reluctant to leave open the bedroom window. To the end of the site the hotel seems to be erecting a time share condo block, tho there was no noise from this. Location is way out from the centre of town where the restaurants are and you need to drive in to town. There are other hotels actually on the lakeside and closer to town. Hotel has no air con, steps( no ramp) at entrance and no lift. Don`t know why the Lions chose this one! We ate in some good restaurants in town.

“So so...”

Peppers Terraces Resort

4/4 found this review helpful

We booked this hotel last minute, on route to it, so weren't really sure what to expect...
The hotel itself has been tastefully restored recently. We paid an extra $10 per room for a lake view - it's worth noting that the lake is someway away though (though you can see it!)
It's also worth noting that the Hotel is situated next to a truck stop, which does not make for a quiet nights sleep!
The food was ok - breakfast took forever to arrive, and we felt like we were getting in the way, rather than being customers....
Overall we were disappointed, and I think it's a bit expensive for what it is...

This hotel is lovely to look at - but rooms are very small - bathrooms even more so! We had three staying in the room so really didn't appreciate the glass door to the bathroom! Nice bar/ bistro - dissapointed the main restaurant wasn't open - we were there in peak season too!

“An attractive hotel”

Peppers Terraces Resort

Dec 12, 2005
3/3 found this review helpful

Probaly best described as a 'boutique hotel'. Modern, fashionable, small rooms. The staff were brilliantly friendly. The bar was good and the meals served up were of good quality. Unfortunately they didn't see fit to open the restaurant because it was mid-week (they only open at weeekends out fo season) even though the hotel was full (Lions tour - but hey, they'd only had 4 years to make plans!)
The hotel is a little out of town so you'll need a car to drive in - but it is located by the hot springs. I'd recommend the individual hot spa baths ;-)
The only bug-bear was the small room and even more minute shower-room.
