Ski Time is famous amongst our family and friends - it is a truly wonderful experience, the hospitality is warm, professional and incredibly good value. The food is excellent, the ambience amazing - just like the Swiss chalet ski lodges we enjoyed when living in Switzerland. I don't think I can think of any other property in New Zealand that offers this sort of genuine welcome, in such a European way.
We try to stay at Ski Time as often as we can - in summer or winter - the views and local environment are incredibly beautiful. We enjoy the welcome, the food, the elegance and most of all the lovely personalities of the staff. They make this one of our favourite hotels!

This was a great place to stay. It instantly felt warm and inviting. Room was clean and so was the shared amenities. The food down in the bar was great. Would definitely stay here again

Our visit to Methven was to go to the hot pools, which were excellent. My husband is not comfortable around water, but found the hot pools to his liking. We had a delicious evening meal at the Green Parrot restaurant, which was very well patronised when we were there. Food and beverage prices were very reasonable.

Couldn’t fault this lovely little village.
Couldn’t fault this lovely little village. Friendly people, tidy place easy to access. Great range of places to explore and enjoy, or to just sit and watch the world go by. A highlight for our group (8 70+) was having coffee at Topp Country Cafe. Go there!

We were there for 2 nights in the summer.
We were there for 2 nights in the summer. Our full day was the best. Drove to the river for a look then parked at the race ground and did the piwakawaka and fairy walk. Had a picnic and then went to the tranquility pools.
Loved the pools and walk up bar. 2 hours was definately long enough and if you dont have kids then def do the adult only side.
All this could have easily been a day trip from Christchurch.
Dinner at the Green Parrot was amazing. We had the calamari and mussles and they were both amazing.
Would not stay at the methven resort again though. No pool and no entertainment or access to the shared space.

Methven is a very nice place to visit.
the Resort was a very handy facility but dated now. Restaurant & Bar in the hotel were poorly run. Places to eat out were very handy - walking distance. I would avoid booking with booking.com. The rack rate was more than 1/3 cheaper. Felt ripped off. I booked two further studio rooms for family on the spot and they were $110 per night

Methven is a nice little town to stay for a week if you're skiing, snowboarding or mountain biking in the area. There's 3 pubs and a few restaurants and takeaways, plus a couple of supermarkets. Closest location to Mt Hutt. Just over an hour from Christchurch.
Great communal restaurant and bar. Just a really nice mountain lodge feel about it! and felt is was very reasonable for the cost.
Breakfast buffet was varied and perfect to fill up for our days up the mountain. Everything we ate on the snack and dinner menu was delicious.
Perfect location within walking distance to the new hot pools. Also not too far from the main Methven high street.
It is a comfortable, quiet, spotlessly clean and well appointed studio. Ideal for couples. An easy walk into the centre of Methven. Hosts Joanne and Hamish are lovely and very welcoming. Will definitely stay there again.
How attentive the staff were to our needs. Not many guests due to Covid, yet they looked after us well. If staying in Methven you couldn't go past this place for value.
Lovely friendly couple running the motel. Good view of Mount Hutt, walking distance to Opuke hot pools and Methven Walkway. Room was comfortable and warm.
