Beautiful view (as seen in photo). Very clean and comfortable. Quiet but central location.
Very very tight parking spaces (though plentiful on street parking if you can't manage the turns).

the view from the apartment was great, looking out over the bay. Very good location for shops, restaurants and where we caught the boat for our trip watching the dolphins, which was amazing. the apartment was a good size with a great balcony that is covered over so we we could sit outside and eat our meal even though it was raining. the parking is tight and steep but if you don't feel confident to use it there is ample street parking
the furniture in the apartment is very tired and needs replacing as this spoils your experience slightly in what could be a wonderful apartment

We had a lovely view watching the ferries come in & out from Wellington The lady was very helpful organising a taxi for us to catch the Trans Alphine Train however on a good day you could easily walk to the station if you're fit . We walked the short distance to a choice of cafe's & restaurants for dinner & breakfast
The only downside, with us being carless at this stage of our trip, was the extremely steep driveway into the accommodation. The hot day even made this more problematic but hey we survived Room was a little dated although spotless with everything you needed

Exceptional view from the room, right across the road from the marina. Did not hear any road noise at all. Probably no more than about a five minute drive from the ferries. Nice touch that they supplied air freshener in the bathroom. Decor is modern and very clean. It was nice to have a blanket on the bed, that I could use instead of the duvet. Would stay here again.
The motel is located on quite a steep hill, that is how you get the views of course, however the driveway is tricky

Room was very comfy. Balcony view was lovely. Further back from marina than I expected but still very pleasant. Spacious and amenities were great. Due to arrival and departure times did not meet the hosts but everything worked exceptionally well. Very satisfied with the stay.
Flickering light in kitchen was annoying but we weren't there long enough for it to trouble us. Main bedroom in family apartment had several beds in it which some families might not like but as its generally a transit location to the ferry I wouldn't worry about it for one night. Possibly a bit further out from restaurants etc if you were walking but minor inconvenience.

Brilliant view. We stayed in the standard room and then on our return trip in the two bedroom apartment. We would definitely stay in either again. Loved the outdoor space. The rooms were spacious and great water pressure! Lovely manager (she was new to the place but so great to deal with). Apartments were clean and a small bottle of fresh milk was provided daily which was great. Walking distance to the stores and beach.
The parking - it is very pokey and difficult with other vehicles. We chose to park on the street.

Great location overlooking the harbour , minutes from the ferry port and close to the local restaurants. Clean and comfortable large room with king sized bed with extra sofa bed, small table and chairs, plenty of places to sit down and relax after being in the car all day whilst watching the comings and goings Picton harbour. The Queen Studio had a small kitchen with hob, fridge etc, containing most items you would need for a couple of nights stop over in Picton. Rooms serviced daily . Lovely hosts . Arrived in the evening after reception was closed but note on the reception door clearly explained how to access our room .

2 bed apartment was great for our family. Staff were easy to talk to and accommodating of our needs. Views were great and walking distance to everything in picton.
Car parking was a bit of a mission but we managed! If you have two cars you have to park one on the street which is narrow Wellington styles so hard to navigate if you’re not used to it. Also a carpark down the road if you needed though.

The view was amazing. Sitting out on the balcony (or at the table inside when it was windy) allowed for a beautiful view of the Picton harbour and surrounding landscape. The room was spacious, with large bed, TV, kitchen, couch, table and chairs. Tea, coffee, sugar supplies and also milk given. Kitchen well supplied with utensils and appliances.
The hairdryer in the bathroom was very small and not powerful enough to dry my hair - but that's really not a biggie.

We stayed here for 3 nights. The lady at reception was lovely and helpful. The room was nice with a view of the harbour. Small kitchen to heat up meals.
We were without a car travelling via ferry and train. The driveway was extremely steep, winding and long to get to the room. It was unsafe for my husband who is vision and mobility impaired to walk without a great deal of assistance.
