This is the second time I have stayed at Ski Time. This time in the lodge.
Great staff.
So close to town - easy stroll to a number of other places to eat out - you don't have too - Ski time has great food.
Nice healthy breakfast to start the day.

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

Luxurious and private, we felt pampered staying in this studio in a beautiful country setting.
Cedar Chalets are located right in the center of beautiful Methven, with the Southern Alps as a backdrop and Mt Hutt Ski area in close proximity.

Excellent location, close to the centre of Methven. Clean and tidy. Very spacious units, suitable for a large group (although we were only 3). Full kitchen with utensils, pots, etc. No grater, which would have been useful. Log fire was excellent. There is a heat pump but it struggled to heat the room in the winter.
Located in Methven, within 7.6 miles of Mount Hutt and 16 miles of Mt.

Lovely spacious room with well stocked kitchenette. Loved the extra touch of the makeup wipes in the bathroom. Lovely hosts, close to the hot pools which is amazing.

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.
Basic but lovely clean and tidy accommodation. We had a fantastic time here on our girl's weekend away. We swam in the pool, and relaxed in the hot tub. Socialised in the evening in one of the lounges. We played pool, table tennis, and tabletop football. Tea, coffee, and breakfast too were a bonus. Opuke Hot Pools and the Methven walkway were really close by and the town wasn't too much of a walk either. The staff were all friendly & helpful, I would definitely recommend staying here.
We had our own breakfast with us, the kitchen offered two hot plates along with the microwave a a nice fridge, place open shelving to store our dry foods. The whole unit was totally immaculate. The owners were friendly. The motel is a short walk to the new opuke spa pools which we recommend as a couple to visit in the evening as the sun is going down, beautiful.
Loved the accommodation, so nice to be in the country and enjoy the views and bird song. We found it the perfect spot in Methven for our long weekend. It was relaxing spending time their enjoying the surroundings and easy access to walks. Just a short drive to the hot pools and also spent the day at Methven Races. Hosts friendly and always good communication.
Excellent location, close to the centre of Methven. Clean and tidy. Very spacious units, suitable for a large group (although we were only 3). Full kitchen with utensils, pots, etc. No grater, which would have been useful. Log fire was excellent. There is a heat pump but it struggled to heat the room in the winter.
We were contacted by someone from the Methvan Motels to say the power was off & no meals would b available at the hotel. They reduced the cost of staying. When we arrived the power was back on but no meals as staff had gone home. They honoured the dropping of price.
Very good location, walking distance to bars, cafes, restaurants and best off all, close to Opuke Thermal Pools. Amazing hosts, thank you Lesley & Warren you are wonderful, friendly hosts. Thanks for a fantastic stay at your motel
The room was clean with a comfortable bed and good shower.
The host was nice and offered us an alternative carpark as the lodge parking was full. We ended up parking on the street though. Just something to be aware of.
Great hostel with an ideal location both above a pub and within the town. Super convenient to have a family suite for four of us plus a separate single room for our adult son.
Room was warm and suitable for me and my two sons. Also had a bath. Location was good - just a 300-400m walk to centre of Methven. Staff were very friendly and accommodating.
Location great - did not have breakfast. The hotel was warm, clean and tidy. Would stay again.
Didn't have an opportunity to eat in the restaurant but will next time.
Friendly place to stop. Lodge style with a comfy lounge with pool table and fireplace. Lovely mountain views from the restaurant with good breakfast and great staff
We stay in Methven regularly, nothing is far from town. Good to have cooking facilities. No tea towels or dish cloths, we went and bought them.
