Methven Retreat Tiny House, hotel in Methven

Situated in Methven and only 13 km from Mount Hutt, Methven Retreat Tiny House features accommodation with garden views, free WiFi and free private parking.

Unable to answer a lot of the questions unfortuantly. We were double booked and missed out on the stay unfortuantly which didn't cause too much drama in our circumstances but was annoying. The biggest issue was only being told the day before out planned stay, which could of caused a real head ache if it was a longer teip further away from home. The host was lovely though over the phone and was refunded the full price.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    EVERYTHING! I was blown away by Methven. I had not returned there for years and regret that now. We will definitely be back. What made it so enjoyable was how nice the motel was to come back to. It was clean, modern and the hosts were such nice people. Being able to take our two grandchildren and two dogs made the experience so nice.

    What a lovely stay. The hotel is quiet, spacious and very clean and tidy. The lounge for the guests is more than great. What a view when you have a really good breakfast. Everyone working there is lovely, smiling, always a nice thing to say or a great recommendation for what to do around Methven. I would definitely come again.

    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.

    Originally we stayed in a studio room and that was a little dated. We moved to an apartment when lockdown happened and that was fantastic. Would definitely pay the extra and get an apartment next time we are in methven. Because of lockdown we didn't get to eat in the restaurant so couldn't comment on that

    Excellent self contained farm accommodation. Has all the facilities required for our ski holiday stay. Short drive to Methven for supplies and eateries & close to Mt Hutt for skiing. Is also next to the Methven walkway which is useful if the weather isn't good up the mountain.

    We loved the quirkiness of staying in an old NZ pub hotel. The decor and decorating was exceptional and very well done. We loved sitting on the balcony and watching the people, traffic and tractors go by. A truly incredible experience.

    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.
