This hotel is an experience. The grounds are stunning. Everywhere you look is beauty. Don’t miss the hydranga walking trail. The rooms are large with luxury appointments. The staff are 10 star and what makes this place so exceptional. The food is delicate and exquisite. And of course, the wine is plentiful and delish.

Such wonderful service! From the moment we checked in we were met on a first name basis , treated as family the entire stay and greeted with smiles at every turn. Both the day and night managers were genuinely happy to be there and enjoyed not only their jobs but meeting guests. We also had the privilege of spending time getting to know the owner, Angela, who is very hands on and it shows in the minor details. Our room was lovely and quiet , we enjoyed the wines in our rooms and the evening canapés/cocktails. The outdoor fireplace was lovely and Kareem, the night manager was more than happy to keep the fires burning. The breakfast crew with Lea was so attentive and the food was delicious , both breakfast and dinner. It was nice to have the heated pool available , and the convenience to town was another plus. A lovely venue with wonderful people working there , we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This was also the first place we have stayed with a secret passage for guests.

Incredible property surrounded by amazing gardens and vineyards. Rooms are lovely and attention to every detail is taken. Don’t miss dinner at the on-site restaurant, it’s equally as incredible as the property and staff.

My husband and I treated ourselves to the Marlborough Boutique Hotel during our honeymoon, and it was absolutely worth it. The exceptional experience started even before we arrived, with the staff going above and beyond to help us arrange tours and transfers—even last-minute ones! The bike tour they booked for us was so much fun, and the fact that they have a helipad on-site made it easy to combine a helicopter tour and transfer to our next hotel. When we arrived, the service was next-level. Our luggage was delivered straight to our room, we were greeted with prosecco, and they gave us a quick but thoughtful tour of the property. It was the perfect welcome. We loved the daily happy hour, where we got to mingle with other guests over drinks and hors d'oeuvres. With just 10 rooms, the hotel felt so intimate, and the personalized service really shone. Breakfast was delicious, and dinner at their restaurant was equally impressive. The room itself was stunning—by far the largest and most luxurious of our three-week New Zealand trip. We especially loved the wines provided in-room, which were made from the Marlborough vineyard and only available on-site (either in your room or at the restaurant). The housekeeping team did a fantastic job, and the evening turndown service added to the luxury. Marlborough Boutique Hotel really knows how to make you feel spoiled. Whether it’s the little details or the big ones like helicopter transfers, everything was perfect. This place is 10/10—we’d recommend it in a heartbeat and can’t wait to go back someday!

This was by far the most expensive stop on our trip but sadly didn’t live up to expectations. Just off the main road so the undoubtedly lovely surroundings were spoiled by traffic noise. Charming but inexperienced staff didn’t leave great impression on arrival. We so wanted to love it, but came away disappointed.

ブレナム空港からホテルまでタクシーで40ドルほどです。空港には飛行機の到着に合わせてタクシーは何台かいます。
いなければ電話番号が書いてあるので電話すれば来てくれます。
事前にホテルに送迎を頼むと60ドルです。
部屋はとても広く、バスタブも付いています。
冷蔵庫のビールやソフトドリンク、スナック類もチャージ無しで頂けます。毎日補充されます。
ホテルオリジナルのとても美味しいワインも1日一本無料で頂けました。
スリッパ、歯ブラシなどは置いてありません。持っていきましょう。
ミシュラン星付きのレストランが併設されています。朝食も素晴らしいです。
ランチやディナーはアラカルトです。事前にメールで予約可能です。周辺に夕飯を食べられるレストランなどはあまり無いので夕飯はこちらで頂きました。
メニューは頻繁には変わらないので連泊すると全メニュー制覇できます。
18時から19時は庭の暖炉の前で美味しいワインが無料で頂けます。
近くのワイナリーには歩いて行けるところもありますが、スタッフに頼めばすぐにタクシーを呼んでもらえます。
クラウディーベイなども片道20ドルほどで行けます。
こちらのホテルはエントランスから感動します。スタッフもとても親切で頼りになります。
値段は安くは無いですが、記憶に残る最高のホテルです。
ワイナリーを巡ってのんびり過ごすには最高です。

We just stayed at The Marlborough for 3 nights and it is one of the best boutique hotels we have ever stayed at. The rooms are large and extremely comfortable, food in the (hatted) Harvest restaurant is exceptional and the grounds are beautifully maintained. Service is very friendly and professional, nothing is too much trouble. Thx to Angela and the entire Marlborough team for making this such an enjoyable and memorable stay. We 100% recommend a stay.
