Wonderful, friendly helpful manager, great facilities including the spa and really great guide about local entertainment. Wasn't sure how to stop or start spa but luckily it was running when we needed and had a long soak. Peaceful, and the most comfy beds, and access to a laundry straight off our twin room with kitchenette. Thanks for a great experience.
The room was a great size! The amenities are well kept and the rooms are fantastically clean! The location is nice and close to the township!
We where very happy with the location originally only being two of us at first we had a small room organised after a little more investigation we decided to upgrade to the two bedroom as it had the full kitchen a lounge and bigger area. We had a beautiful view of Mt Hutt. The hot tubs were a welcome joy at the end of the day. The owners are very warm and welcoming and the service was very good. Unfortunately the Internet was very hard to connect to and the rooms as comfortable as they were they were a little outdated.
We had a fantastic stay at the Brinkley Hotel in Methven! Unit 21B was a great 2-bedroom option, and when we combined 21A & 21B it worked perfectly as a spacious 3-bedroom setup – ideal for the NZ ski season at Mount Hutt. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and well equipped, with everything we needed after long days on the mountain.nManagers Paul and Gayle are so friendly and accommodating with all our wishes while we stayed and they recommended Opuke Hot pools not far from the accommodation.nnDon’t forget you can catch the bus directly from the hotel to the ski field.nnThe hotel’s restaurant and bar Shackeltons were a real highlight – great food, friendly service, and the perfect place to relax with a drink. We also recommend heading into town for dinner at either the Blue or Brown Pub – both have a great atmosphere and hearty meals.nnBrinkley is the perfect base for a Mount Hutt ski trip. We’ll definitely be back!
My husband and I stayed in apartment 19A which is upstairs facing the mountains. The view was stunning and location handy to supermarket. The apartment is fully equipped for cooking, eating, laundry as required.nOnly disappointment was the unprofessional employee at reception who was verbally rude to my husband when he returned the key and tried talking to her about our stay.
