This motel is an ideal overnight stopping point for Inter Island Travellers. This motel is 20 minutes from the Picton Ferry Terminal and is very close to the main Blenheim shopping centre. The motel is quiet, very clean and meets all 'very fussy persons' requirements. I also used the same motel for my return trip from the North Island and... More

I was impressed by the helpfulness of the owners / managers nothing was a problem, a bucket and vase for flowers were I'm sure their own. The cleaners who had been there for some time were again cheerful and thorough. Again they fitted to our requirements, well done. It makes a difference. The motel was well situated and only 5...

Stayed over the Marlborough wine festival weekend and we couldn't have asked for a better location to catch the bus there and back and also easy walking distance to great restaurants in town. Rooms serviced to a high standard and Jenny and Murray were superb hosts and have definitely chosen the right profession for ones so new to the industry.... More

We stayed for two nights on our way from Oamaru up to Auckland. This would be the BEST accommodation that we have stayed in. The owners were lovely, friendly and the room was PERFECT, very clean and they had thought of everything that a travelling family would need.

What a lovely place to stay! Everything was clean and tidy and well presented! Such a convienient location being a couple of minutes walk to town and with the lovely Seymour Gardens over the road. Happened upon this place by chance when booking, but will definately make it our #1 choice of accommodation when in town next!
