Great location and friendly staff and clients
Everything was great, staff were excellent. Clean, comfortable and great facilities
Only one thing, it would've been great to have a face/ shower cloth included with the towel
暖かい 清潔
キッチンの洗い場がもう一つ欲しい ベッドは下なら良いが、2階は怖い。 コインランドリーがない(離れた所になる)
キッチンは清潔、シャワーは使いやすい、
トイレがもう一つほしい、調理器具の熱源が使いづらい、フライパンは更新してほしい、
Great communal area with fire and excellent facilities
Terrific value for money in a clean, well maintained family lodge.
I loved the privacy of our room with the attached ensuite.
Parking was a bit limited but then you can park on street.
スタッフ親切でフレンドリーだし、立地もすごく良かったです!
ランドリーとwifiが故障中だったけど、運が悪かっただけ。
Everything was exactly what my 2 girls and I needed for the night!
La gestione
La camera privata è un po piccola
スーパーにも近く、マウントハットのベースとして最適。
洗濯機、乾燥機がない。二段ベッドの上側には転落防止の柵がほしい。
Location next to shops and restaurants was really good. Really nice kitchen and lounge area
Quite loud, you could hear a lot of the stuff going on outside your door
Walking distance to amenities/ shops Drying room and space for kids upstairs
Great place as base for Mt Hutt skiing. Great communal spaces. The changes to our booking were checked, which was fantastic.
It was unfortunate that the staff covering the days off didn't quite cover fully, e.g. stoking the morning fire at 7am. I understand that this was the first fully-opened week in a while, so I am sure that this has been ironed out.
Multiple heating options, so room was warm on a very cold night. Room was very basic but clean and comfortable. Woman on front desk was amazing, super lovely and welcoming. Location was 30 seconds from the vet I had travelled to visit, so was perfect for me. Free wifi and carpark.
Room was a little basic / ugly. But no big deal.
I cannot recommend the Snow Denn Lodge enough. The host Katie is very friendly and very helpful with regards to getting me settled in answering all the questions I had about the area. The shared kitchen has plenty of pots/pans/utensils for cooking and plenty of fridge and cabinet space for ingredient and leftovers. There are lots of comfy couches in the upstairs common area and the TV has Netflix, which is nice. The whole lodge (rooms, toilets, showers, common areas) is kept very clean. My room (single cabin) came with its own heater, a very welcome feature, and the bed was comfy. While not 5-star spacious, it was by no means cramped; there was more than enough room for me, my clothes, my skis, my toiletries, and my chargers/devices. (Plus I was only ever in my room to sleep becuase the common areas were so nice.) Location wise, Snow Denn is right in the middle of town, a two-minute walk to the local pubs (Brown/Blue/Dubliner), supermarkets, and ski equipment stores. The WiFi works without any issues. I couldn't have asked for better accomodation to kick off my ski season.
Water pressure in the shower was a little light
Todo estaba muy limpio, era muy acogedor y me hizo sentir muy a gusto.
Este alojamiento es cálido y acogedor. Es lo más parecido a una casa donde he estado durante mi solo trip por NZ y eso ha hecho que extienda mi estancia aquí para descansar y acabar de planificar el resto del viaje.
服務親切,廚房很棒,好停車,附近走路就有超市,單人房很舒適

Amazing vfm. Staff were great and location really good.
Shower wasn’t powerful or temperature consistent.
Location
No tea, coffee supplies were available. This is very unusual for me. I live in nz for 19 years travelled around and haven’t experienced this
Has been renovated since my last visit a few years ago and looks very good. Feels modern, clean. Quiet.
Nil
Great location close to the centre of town and a very helpful manager.
Awesome place. Really friendly staff
No bad points
Lovely place to stay. Had a great kitchen and lounge area. Parking was good and easy access to shops nearby. A good range of kitchen stuff for preparing meals.
Nothing really.
Other guests not cleaning up the kitchen well.
Loved the rooms, fantastic kitchen and communal hang out space above, receptionist was lovely and got us sorted despite my error in booking
The bunk beds were apparently not comfortable at all, quite “boney”, but our doubles/queen beds were lovely.
Eine sehr gut ausgestattete Unterkunft. Sehr sauber, große Küche und Aufenthaltsbereich. Sehr ruhig gelegen und sehr freundliches Personal. Kann man auch für mehrere Tage empfehlen.
Loved our brunch at Primo E Secundo
Very clean and got comfy vibe
The kettle need to be changed
Very good value. Clean and tidy. Would book again
Really clean and well maintained
Really need to change a new kettle
シャワーの水圧が別の棟よりしっかり出てよかった ベッドルームも各所コンセント横に棚が設置してあって色々物が置けて便利だった
キッチン周り色々揃っていたこと 洗濯機と干すところがあったこと スタッフの方が親切だったこと
シャワーの水圧が弱かった
Staff are friendly and helpful, the fellow backpackers are friendly as well. Great location to supermarket and bars. Tidy room, comfy bed, and had everything I required there for cooking in the kitchen/dining room.
Could do with a bigger drying room for ski gear.
The public spaces are just delightful. Fireplace, open kitchen, lofted ceilings, cozy mezzanine, spacious fridge and extensive counter space. Fabulous grocery store just across the small skate park. Parking is very easy, and they have a gear room for your skis and boards, as well as a separate drying room. Overall very clean and cozy and fantastic value. I would definitely stay here again to ski in Canterbury.
The place is great, just some suggestions here for improvement. The kitchen towels seemed to have never been given a chance to dry, I would find them folded and put back in the drawer damp (could have been a guest too? I have no idea.) The towels smelled like milddew, which meant the dishes smelled like it too. So I washed all my dishes both before and after I used them, to be sure. It was a bit confusing what the dishes and drying protocol was supposed to be. Also, it was unclear to me whether boots are allowed indoors or not, there was a shoe rack by the door but only one pair of shoes were there besides mine and guests wore whatever inside. The showers left a little more to be desired as one of them ran cold (might be because someone else was showering simultaneously or right before me, but I didn't have enough nights to test it out.) The mattresses cave down in the middle, found it a little uncomfortable for my back. I saw the staff once, to check me in, and then never saw anyone from the property again.
Great location with walking distance to bars, restaurants, grocery. Cosy fireplace in the kitchen and front door bus stop to Mt Hutt for skiing. Affordable for solo skiers who don't mind dorms.
A bit noisy
great place for a short stay
Such a great location in the heart of methven, the ski bus picked us up right outside and the lodge itself was so cozy! Great kitchen with an upstairs tv/lounging space, clean communal facilities. Staff were so kind and accomodating, letting us leave our bags early and checking in early. Would highly recommend staying here, we loved our time here.
Great location, in the center of the town
No dryer for the laundry
The Lodge type facilities suited us very well. The kitchen was spacious and well appointed. Our room had the benefit of an en suite, which was clean and adequate.
Clean and modern
Noise from outside of room
Convenience. Clean and tidy. Spacious kitchen.
Small room, tiny bathroom. Walls so thin that you could hear snoring from the other room.
Great place, warm fireplace and nice shared facilities and rooms
Perfect location for our needs.
Ensuite tiny but adequate. Very limited storage in room
Awesome staff and owners and great atmosphere was really nice will definitely be back again
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.
Clean, comfortable
Value for money
There was no tv in our room or no face cloths and no body wash
Common areas were nice and staff were great
The beds and bedding were sooo uncomfortable. We were also unlucky enough to have the rattling drying room heater on the other side our pillows so didn’t sleep much on the first night.
Great spot, easy to access.
Perhaps a small TV in the en suite room for older guests that couldn't manage the stairs to the TV lounge. Tea and coffee provided would be good. At the price, which was similar to a motel, Tea and Coffee facilities are usually included.
