Reviews and Ratings
The hotel surprised me with its nice rooms that were clean, comfortable, and better than expected for the price paid. Although there was a slight smell issue, overall, it was a pleasant stay with friendly service. The location was prime, close to many attractions, although some aspects needed maintenance. The dining experience was not the best with limited choices, but still manageable.
The hotel is conveniently located near the town's main business and shopping area, the railway station, and the ferry terminal, offering easy access to everything. While the cleanliness could be improved, the hot rooms were provided with good cooling fans. The service was efficient and courteous despite some small room issues that required attention. The dining experience at Toasties across the road was average, and the facilities need some attention, though the location's convenience stands out as a major plus point.
The hotel offers outstanding views of Malbourough Sound and Picton harbour from the rooms, but cleanliness issues and noise disturbances from the stairwell door affected the stay. The service was a mix of helpfulness and shortcomings, and the dining experience was underwhelming. The location is convenient, albeit needing some tidying up.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were a bit bland and run down, lacking any charm, but they did offer a balcony with views of the pool and harbor. The service had some issues with the food order but was generally good, especially the prompt response. The location was convenient, close to the harbor area and ferry terminal, but in need of refurbishment. The dining options were below standard, with uninspiring choices, but the facilities were satisfactory.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious with lovely harbor views, although being street-facing made it a bit noisy with traffic sounds. The service was a bit hit-or-miss, with some staff being very friendly and bubbly while others seemed too busy for guests. The location was convenient for accessing the ferry and local eateries, despite the small parking area. The dining experience was satisfactory, although there were delays, especially when dining with kids. Overall, it was a decent stay with some ups and downs.
I was pleasantly surprised by the lovely and clean rooms, which were better than expected and offered good value for money. The room size was great, although I was disappointed with the harbor view. The service was excellent and easy to deal with, with friendly staff answering all our questions. The location was ideal, being just meters away from the waterfront and surrounded by plenty of shops, restaurants, and cafes. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with delicious food every morning but some presentation issues and cold dishes. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor hiccups.
The hotel room was hot even though the heater was on, not as described in the photos, but it was spacious enough for a short stay and had basic amenities like tea, coffee, and a small fridge. The price seemed high for a room that smelled rundown.
The hotel had spacious rooms with balconies offering views of the pool and harbor which was a nice touch. However, the rooms felt outdated and basic for the high price of $300 per night, and there were issues with poor room acoustics. The heat was also uncomfortable at times, forcing us to leave until it cooled down.
