Edit Picton Reviews

Fairly standard hotel. Not much going on in picton in the winter I’d recommend staying in Blenheim itself if you’re just going for the wine. But the harbour is very pretty and convenient if getting the ferry to/from wellington.

The positive first. It was a really good location and the rooms were clean. But. We did book two rooms with double beds and sea view. We also payed for it. But we didn’t get what we paid for. We got one double bed room and one room with a double bed and a single bed ( the single bed was really tiny btw). We went to the reception to ask because we were confused. And the service wasn’t good at all. The woman at the reception told us that they don’t have two rooms that kind. And we ask why they offer something like that. She couldn’t tell us. She told us she could get us a downgrade to a family room. But that’s all she could do. And then she just laughed at us. We think it’s really rude. The breakfast is not good at all. There is toast, some fruits, pancakes and oatmeal. Could be better. After we checked out we just went outside and I saw on my account that the hotel charged my credit card with 100€. So I went back inside. And the man looked it up and told me ups was a mistake and he returned the money. I just found that really odd.

Good location. In the city centre, near Picton to Wellington / Wellington to Picton ferry terminal (Cook Strait) , about 15 minutes walk. Many restaurants, shops and supermarkets are nearby.

Stop over hotel in the way to the ferry. Overall it was great for what we needed.

Fantastic location, right next to marina. Very convenient for boat tours and local cafes / shops. Friendly reception staff. Room was great, with little balcony facing the water - beautiful! Would stay here again.

Convenient location-- walking distance to shops and short trails (hiking).

The hotel itself is a bit dated but well maintained and clean. The service was good and breakfast was substantial. Pool seemed unused for years with black spots of algae but we were not really into swimming so its ok. The room size were nice and big but sound proof is not too good. We can hear the kids playing from the other room. Beds were good and comfy. Smells clean and soft. Location is good. Walking distance to everything you need.

The hotel quite near to picton railway station. Walking distance less than 10mins. The front desk customer service quite friendly and their welcome drink really impressed me. But 1 thing need to take note. Hotel doesn’t have lift . So if you stay at 3rd floor, you have to carry your luggage go up to 3rd floor. So for elderly, please take note

Enjoyed cooked and continental breakfast.Lower part of shower curtains need bleaching cos yellowy coloured mould growing. Cigarettes butts on ground straight outside our front sliding balcony door! One darkhaired female pakeha housekeeper had an attitude by her body language...should leave that at home! Otherwise very helpful staff who treated us like they would like to be treated. No milk left in our room on arrival or daily supply. Our prepaid booking was for daily housekeeping.Overall comfortable stay...mattress ,pillows and bedding. Nice hot showers. Enjoyed using heated outdoor pool in all weather conditions. Socialising with some other guests. We want to return for a longer holiday! Thank you.

All the staff were very friendly and attended to my needs, we will be coming back

Nice hotel. Looked better from the outside than inside. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Swimming pool is a bit tired. Room decor was a bit average - not as good as pictures on website. Overall a good stay.

Overall very satisfactory.

stayed one night, convenient location walkable to the water and cute restaurants!

Very close to the intercity bus and ferry station, opposite the beach and restaurant street, the room is big and has a balcony, overall it's pretty good!
