The location is ideal - it's an easy walk to the supermarket, restaurants, and the shuttle bus pickup for Mt Hutt skiing. The lodge itself is quiet and relaxed. Our room was clean and the beds were comfortable. ##### Jason Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lucy 18 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff were very friendly & replied promptly when I asked to extend stay. The price was reasonable. The kitchen was well equiped. Especially liked the fire place in the kitchen. Everything was clean from our room to the kitchen. I would prefer a lighter duvet though my daughter liked the weighted duvet - so that's personal preference. The only concern was being able to hear people in the next room. I could hear snoring when I used the bathroom but at least couldn't hear this when we shut the bathroom door. Though in the morning it was quite noisy. Didn't really bother me as we were getting up anyway. ##### Lucy Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ben 10 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great place, warm fireplace and nice shared facilities and rooms ##### Ben Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark 29 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ensuite tiny but adequate.

Tea and coffee provided would be good. At the price, which was similar to a motel, Tea and Coffee facilities are usually included. ##### Steve Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jude 16 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very comfy beds.

This was our second trip to Snow Denn and we had another enjoyable stay. The owner is very friendly and helpful and it was great to see how much her young child had grown since our visit last year. Our boys were happy to be back. The kitchen and bathroom were nice and clean and the other guests friendly and quiet. Nice central location, very near to both supermarkets and in town eateries. All very short walking distance. ##### Zara Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### William 3 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Good Bathrooms, Kitchen & dining room with fireplace, and lounge room. Located fairly close to shops and food & beverage outlets and has private car parking on site available. However the room I stayed in (twin dorm with bunk bed) was really small and had bad soundproofing so all the noise from people talking in kitchen and dining room, shower and toilet came straight through the walls. ##### William Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Aaron 1 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Ee ##### Aaron Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ADRIENNE 25 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities . ##### ADRIENNE Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zara 18 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### So cosy my boys didn't want to go home! My two young boys and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Snow Denn Lodge. It was a lovely warm and welcoming hostel, with comfy made up beds and a wood burning stove lit each evening in the kitchen/dining/common area. The kitchen was well equipped and clean and there was a lovely big dining table that was great for meeting other Lodge residents around. I loved that I could easily recycle our waste and even feed food scraps to the owners' chooks (via collection bucket). My boys loved hanging out in the comfortable lounge area upstairs, with great views over to Mount Hutt. We even met another family to ski with through staying here. They come back annually, apparently. Plus, when a favourite cuddly toy was accidentally left behind, Laura, one of the owners, located it and is couriering it home to us. Great, friendly service from her, partner Tim and baby Tessa!! I'm sure we'll be back... ##### Zara Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 13 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Favorite in Methven!
