Featuring a seasonal outdoor pool, Southern Cross Lodge Methven in Methven has accommodations with free WiFi and free private parking for guests who drive.
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.

The backdrop of mt hutt is absolutely stunning. personally enjoyed the Rakia gorge, and clearwater lake with my children. there aren't much activities around for rainy days hence we drove down to Ausburton.

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.

So much to do in this delightful wee town.
So much to do in this delightful wee town. Walks along the canal or up the mountain, cutest movie theatre, lovely meals in town - especially at Ski time, and the hotpools were quite exceptional for quality and views.

Great little town nice frosty mornings but good days n lovely to go to opuke thermal pools highly recommend, also the top country cafe was great for coffee an even got to meet Lynda topp an have a photo taken was lovely, also the kebab trailer cart was delicious
Excellent choice, Rooms are not in front of the road as some other Methven's Motel have, but is a little in the background which means very quiet place. VERY Large, confortable room with absolutely everything you need. A kitchen with a door therefore no odor if you cook ;-), everything for cooking. A very large bathroom with a separate big shower very good. Also absolutely no noise from the rooms next. Good welcoming. Very good wifi.
We recommand.
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.
Great location right in the middle of Methven and a very close walk to many of the shops and cafes. It was also great to be so close to the i-Hub, where we got picked up and dropped off by the bus to Mt Hutt. The facilities like the kitchen and bathroom were nice and clean enough. Check-in and check-out was also very easy.
The location of the Cedar Chalets is perfect. It is situated on the main road not far at all from Methven town. the chalet was huge for our family (4 people). It had a log burner and a smart TV and the chalet already had wood there for you to use. Highly recommend and we would stay here again.
The location was great, the apartment was warm, clean and serviceable.
We will book again next time we are staying in Methven
Great secondhand shopping in Methven and Mayfield. The other highlight was the Opuke hot pools. Definitely worth a visit
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.
Snow Denn is a great lodge in a central location in Methven. We have stayed before and will probably stay again. We love the fire in the living space. The managers were very friendly, welcoming and helpful.
The place was clean and tidy. Joanne and Hamish were amazing hosts and made us felt welcome. The place is conveniently located in Methven and very close to towm center.
We stay alot in Methven in the winter season and have tried a few places but this one is by far our favorite accommodation. We will definitely be back.
