“Pleasant Picton”

2/2 found this review helpful

Stayed two nights at this motel in beginning of November. I think the previous reviewer must of stayed in a room that had not been refurbished as the room was nicely decorated along with a large comfortable bed (and the receptionist was very friendly and helpful). Added bonus of a balcony that has views of the harbour (worth the $5 NZ extra!)

Only slight negative was that the bathroom wasn't that big and the washbasin outside of the bathroom

“Old fashioned and tired”

Spent one night here before going on the Queen Charlotte track walk. Very disappointing. Old fashioned motel style accommodation with entrance over looking car park. VERY tired room and grumpy unhelpful staff. The worst part of our trip to NZ.

“Great Views”

Picton Beachcomber Inn

Sep 9, 2007

Stayed one night in two adjoining rooms booked direct via email. Super adjoining rooms on the top floor right at the end giving double
aspect views over the harbour which was excellent.

Town was half closed for winter but this hotel is a very short walk from the main street and ferry terminal so all very convienent. Clean
and functional rooms. Small lift and pool but the view and price make
this excellent an excellent place to be.

“Fabulous views”

Picton Beachcomber Inn

Mar 20, 2007

We stayed one night in this hotel - beautifully decorated room, huge bed, terrific views over the harbour (and mountains from the front). Agree washbasin was in a slightly bizarre setting outside the bathroom but not a problem. All very modern and trendy. Breakfast was not that good and not that cheap either - but on the whole would recommend this hotel. Easy to walk round the town from here, handy for ferries.

“Delightful small hotel”

1/1 found this review helpful

As part of a bus tour of New Zealand we were booked into The Beachcomber Inn at Picton. What a delight ! We were lucky enough to be allocated one of their updated rooms (I believe they are working through the whole building). Our bedroom was very stylish, comfortable and had a huge sliding picture window which overlooked the harbour. What a view ! Picton itself was
lovely - after getting off the ship from Wellington across the
Cook straight it was very pleasant to walk around the harbourside and the Memorial gardens after dinner and bed
before setting out for a trip around the South Island. So
ask for a renovated room when booking.
