I stayed at the Harbour View before and after doing the Queen Charlotte Track. The room had fantastic views. It was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. The position is ideal for the water taxis and the start of the Queen Charlotte Track. The owners were really friendly and helpful They let us leave the car at the motel for... More

We spent 4 nights over Christmas in Harbour View. I think we agreed that it was the best accommodation we stayed in during our 3 week trip around South Island (and we stayed in some great places!) Lynn and Keith and their staff could not have been more helpful, the rooms are spotless and the views over the harbour are... More

Our room had a King bed with a hide-a-bed couch and was spacious.

There was an ironing board and hair dryer. There was a pay laundry on the property and... More

We only had one night here but enjoyed it very much. The room was clean, welcoming and lovely, as was the bathroom. The bed was comfy and the view was beautiful. The kitchenette was well-stocked for when we decided to self-cater too. Perfect location too, close to the harbour, shops, cafes, supermarket. Best of all, the owner kindly took our... More

We stayed on the top floor (room 10) and had a fantastic view of the harbour - there is a small balcony with a table and chairs - a good spot to enjoy a glass of wine. The room was very comfortable and very clean. We enjoyed our very short stay and would recommend this motel - good value for... More

Good views of the harbour, central location in Picton (15 minute walk to ferry to Wellington) and very helpful hosts (generously offered to drive my family to ferry because it was raining). More

This motel offers many great things. The first and most obvious is the stunning views from the rooms across the bay at Picton. Walking through the front door of our room on every occasion was a wonderful experience as we looked straight out of the windows to the bay. The room facilities were excellent with everything available and clothes washing... More

Harbour View was everything we expected and hoped it would be. Very convenient location with wonderfully accommodating owners. (We arrived very late because of a delayed ferry so they just "left the light on" for us!) Room was spacious and spotlessly clean. Location is within easy walking distance of Picton harbor and some delightful restaurants. More

We stayed at Harbour View Motel in February 2011 and loved it. Lynn & Keith were very welcoming-we felt as if we knew them before we arrived because we had exchanged a few e-mails. The accommodation is excellent and we wished we had been able to stay longer. More
