We felt very comfortable. A friendly welcome, a large room, and free parking. The center is just a few minutes' walk away.
Unfortunately, the air conditioning wasn't enough to keep the room warm in the winter.
In the summer, you can enjoy the lovely pool :)
Overall, the environment is quite nice, and there's a courtyard where you can park. However, the bed in the double room was really small and cramped. On the bright side, the service attitude was good. I'd suggest they do something about pest control; other hotels don't seem to have as many bugs.
Beautiful location overlooking the Marlborough Sounds, grassed area in front down to the sea. Short walk to beach and 10 minutes walk to marina where there is a very good pub with great food.
Very peaceful and lovely outside space to enjoy view and peace - very relaxing.
Lovely apartment, very modern and clean and well equipped. Quality towels and linen.
Too far from Picton Town to walk but only 10 minutes drive to the ferry.
Had a lovely stay at Scenic Hotel Marlborough to end off our trip in New Zealand. The hotel room was much bigger than our previous hotel stays, where we could comfortably open both our large-sized luggage to repack. Apart from the spacious rooms, we love how clean the toilets were and how tidy our rooms are done up by room service each time we return from our day out. The stand out however, was the service provided to us by the staff. We arrived around midnight as we had a long drive from Fox Glacier to get here but the staff was ever ready to receive us, and even gave us recommendations on what to visit around Marlborough during our stay. During our stay, there were occasions where we opted to buy food back to enjoy in our hotel room and the room service was readily available to provide us whatever we needed to have a lovely meal in, including plates, wine glasses and even condiments. Highly recommended!!
I booked and paid for a twin room, completely my risk about the non-fundable nature of the booking. The Interislander ferry was cancelled, I ohoned at 7pm to see if I could change my Sunday night booking to a Saturday night booking. There was no answer, so I left a voice message asking for them to get back to me urgently. No reply, so th enext morning at 6.45am I rang, the person I spoke to seemed to be unaware of my voice message. I asked if I could change the booking and was told they were booked out, so no. I went on to *********** to fiund in fact they did have a double room, at no times was this mentioend to me by the motel. I was travelling with my son so we could have topped and tailed. So Edit cost me $200, did not offer me inventory, that while not what we had booked wwas in fact being offered for less than we had paid. So out of poor service, zero empathy for our situation I would never stay at this place. We travel a lot through Picton but there are places with better customer service to stay.
Very cozy 2 bedrooms cottages. The farm animals were so adorable. The fruits are free to pick & taste yummy. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Overall we had a wonderful experience at the cottage. Highly recommended 😊
The next day, I took an early ferry from Picton to Wellington, so I arrived in Picton a day in advance. The hostess of the hotel was warm and friendly, and was willing to help. She didn't need to deposit any orders, passports, or credit cards. It was very simple and straightforward. The hotel is also in a good location, only 1 km from the check-in location at the pier and the road signs are eye-catching (Figures 8 and 9). It is diagonally opposite the supermarket and gas station 50 meters away. It is worth recommending.
Since we were not in a rush, we decided to stay in Picton for one night before leaving.
The town is not big but very clean and beautiful. I booked the hotel late, so there were not many options. I chose Beachcomber because the reviews were good.
From the train station, follow the navigation and you will arrive in a short time. The front desk staff is a lady, very friendly. We were supposed to check in after 2 pm, but we were arranged in advance. The door is retro and uses a key, which is quite nostalgic.
The room is very clean and better than I expected. You can see the beach not far away from the balcony. The distance is not far or near, and you will not be noisy by the bar at night. If the weather is good, sit on the small balcony and chat with the neighbors. It is quite convenient to go to the beach, restaurant and boat.
The hotel reception is very detailed, the location is very convenient, and the scenery is beautiful.
The only thing is the power outage in the morning, which causes some inconvenience. Next time I come to New Zealand South Island, I will arrange to stay again.

Very Good
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.
Very nice hotel. Rooms are clean + bed very confortable + bathroom nice and with a ”big” shower. Front desk very friendly and helpful (especially Belem is very helpful and knows many languages). Next time I will be in Blenheim I will go to the same hotel again. Hope to see you again, Flurin
Privately owned, friendly owners. The room was roomy and clean. There is a sitting area out the back patio doors which was good. The outdoor furniture is a bit older. The bed and linens were good for a 2 night stay. We just needed a place to stay while we toured the area. Havelock where the postal boat tour is just a 35 minute drive away. There is a Countdown grocery store right across the street which was convenient. There are no restaurants within walking distance.
Montana Lodge Motel certainly ticks all the boxes. Really warm and welcoming hosts very professional and always available to help should and query need answering. Very high standards of cleanliness with immaculate presentation of rooms, amenities and supplies. Although the motel is adjacent to a very busy road we had very good and deep sleeping and I noticed on check out that should anyone need them Ear plugs are freely available.
GGuest UserThe place is not far from the town centre, just around 20 mins walk. The reception is nice and welcoming. The room is spacious. It can be a bit cold at night but the heater works well. The room’s sound proof isn’t very great. I can hear people next door close and open their room door. The kitchen area is supposed to open at 7am, but it was not when I left at around 7:30am, so it’s worth double checking the time with the reception.
I loved it here! I was a single traveler, and this was by far the best stay of my 2 weeks in New Zealand. The rooms are very comfortable, clean, and had a kitchenette. I tend to over do the adventure on my vacations, but this was my most chill morning on the trip. The staff is friendly, and as crazy as it sounds, the breakfast was worth it! I wish I could have stayed here on the return trip.
We had a fantastic stay at this accommodation. The location was perfect—close to town, making it easy to explore the local shops, restaurants, and attractions, yet still in a quiet and peaceful area. The place was spotlessly clean and well-maintained, which made the stay very comfortable.
