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...

Spouse and self stayed here 2 x nights while touring Marlborough area. This has to be the better stay of our tour as very little could have been bettered. The 1/brm suite was very good, spacious, excellently furnished and clean. Proximity to shops was very good and with a delightful park opposite. This Lodge is very well cared for with... More

I left a an expensive designer label blouse behind and notified them I would collect next trip, however due to a number of reasons the weeks past and I didn't get back.

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. On our return back down from Auckland to Oamaru, we had a... More

Over the past 8 years or so whenever we are in Blenheim we always stay at the Lugano. As a B&B owner myself I can appreciate the work that goes into running their business and would not return here if the quality was not to a good standard. The rooms are very clean, comfortable, well presented and very good value... More

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!

Please refer to my previous reveiw. We stay here often and it is still the only place we consider staying at. This is the first time we have stayed at Lugano since the new hosts Murray and Jennie took over and it is still the most friendly, welcoming and happy place to stay. Rooms are absolutely clean and comfortable and... More
