We stayed in a harbour view room with a balcony. The view was amazing. The room was spacious and well equipped. Check-in was very convenient at 1pm, as we arrived on the morning ferry from Wellington.
Close to harbour, shops and restaurants. I would stay here again.

Hotel views were nice but parking b is ridiculous. We had to park on a hill and couldn’t park by our room so we had to drag our luggage up and down. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Just spent one night before the ferry but enjoyed walking into downtown and driving part of Queen Charlotte Drive, which starts in Picton. The room had a great view of the harbour, though it was a bit small for 3 people.
