We stayed at the Picton Harbor View Motel, which has this gorgeous view of the marina and the Sound! The room was spacious, had all the facilities one could want, and very quiet, peaceful and relaxing. The location is convenient and central—yes there is a little hill (maybe 10-15 steps), which is only a problem if you are lugging your... More

My wife and I spent 2 great nights in this marvelous facility. The room was clean and well-stocked with kitchenware, coffee/tea service, bath items, etc. The bed was quite comfortable and the room was quiet. The view was outstanding. But the owners, Lynn and Keith, are what really made it shine--they know and understand what "hospitality" is all about. They... More

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

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
