From the four hotels we stayed during our short trip to NZ, this provided us by far with the best experience. Proximity to the Mt Hutt ski area was key, but the best part was the attention and assistance provided numerous times for different reasons - nothing was too much trouble. The food from the restaurant was also superb - delicious, generous, and well presented. Staff was always smiling, pleasant, and ready to assist wherever possible - so helpful especially when travelling with children. Do yourself a favour and stay at the Methven Resort if you are in the area. We will definitely be back.

Very small rooms for the price ($280 a night). Pool was under repairs which we were only made aware of at check in. Room we were given was cold, damp and in the furthest possible part away from all facilities. Quite dated decor throughout but it did seem clean & tidy. We didn’t actually end up staying here as we found much better options for much cheaper nearby. Upon check in we were left underwhelmed by the hotel for the price we paid so discussed this with management who offered a $200 discount off our stay. We were insulted and dumbfounded as to why we weren’t offered a better rate in the first place so we left.

Underwhelming

I was looking forward to a girls weekend away. Unfortunately the accommodation was a total let down. Out dated. The water out of the water cooler tasted like mold. I was told my room would be ready by 1.00 but it wasn't i wasnt so bothered. But the second lady i talked to had a sarcastic attitude un helpful manner. ( really makes a difference if you a greeted with a joyful reception) Cleaning staff were fantastic and more helpful than the front desk. Tv was minimal. Didn't bother with the free breakfast could leave fast enough to be fair. Probably wont come back.
