"A lovely stay! Very friendly, helpful staff is location close to everything but quiet. The most comfortable bed we had all trip and the most beautiful view of wonderful Picton harbour. Could have sat on the balcony and watched the boars and ferries all day. There were a couple of minor maintenance issues but overall a wonderful stay. Think about staying a couple of nights rather than rushing from the ferry. Picton is lovely with lots to offer and this was a fabulous place to stay. "

"Just up from the Interislander ferry and right on top of some good cafes and bars in town. We had an excellent and in expensive dinner which did impress us. Large comfortable rooms with small balconies but we had the only tree right in front of us, so couldn’t see the marina! Other wise a suitable start point for a tour of the South Island"

"Great location from ferry landing. We walked to restaurants and shops from the hotel. Lots of great options to chose from. Great shopping close to hotel. Room had beautiful view of the harbor and ships. We could lay on the bed and see the wonderful harbor. Loved the jacuzzi tub in the room. Would recommend if staying a night or two in Picton. "
