About

Overlooking the breathtaking Marlborough Sounds, we’re just moments from Waikawa Bay Marina, the ferry terminal, and Picton’s vibrant center. With cozy accommodations, an on-site eatery and bar, and versatile meeting spaces, we’ve everything you need for a fuss-free stay. Enjoy the fresh air with a dip in Edit Picton's outdoor swimming pool. You can also try the fine cuisine served in the maritime-themed Chartroom Restaurant, open for breakfast daily and open for dinner from October to April. Relax with a drink at the Boatshed Bar, with views over the charming harbor. Open seasonally from October to April; currently closed for winter. Edit Picton lies just a short distance outside Picton city center. A mile away you can catch the scenic TranzCoastal railway, running down to Christchurch - a great way to see dolphins and whales in their natural habitat.

    Easy check in, fantastic views, spacious comfortable room, two decks off the living area. Easy central location.

    Since this was the penthouse suite a nespresso machine or at least a coffee plunger would have been a good touch instead of only instant coffee being available.

    4SuePosted on: 12-29-2025

    It was clean and the room was functional

    The room was tired and had the atmosphere of a bus station. Whilst the restaurant food was good, the restaurant lacked atmosphere and comfort - felt like expensive food served a a transport cafe.

    9LinoPosted on: 12-28-2025

    Spacious room, very central

    Breakfast is extremely basic. Asked for a simple omelette and it was not available. Staff could be more welcoming with tourists.

    9shammasPosted on: 12-25-2025

    The hotel may be older, but it is well maintained, comfortable, and has a lovely charm. We really enjoyed our stay in Picton.

    Breakfast price seems to be little on the higher side..

    8PeterPosted on: 12-24-2025

    Room was nice. Bed was comfortable. Slept very good.

    Toilet paper was a bit budget.

    6LOUWRENSPosted on: 12-17-2025

    Room was clean. Towels were clean.

    Not enough parking. Elevator far from our room. Bar fridge not cold enough. No freezer compartment for ice. No "Do Not Disturb sign". Mattress was soft.

    5JosephPosted on: 12-16-2025

    Large room and clean

    No air conditioning. Room was uncomfortable due to heat coming in through glass doors. Fan provided was not very effective.

    7MelissaPosted on: 12-16-2025

    Convenient location, comfy beds, clean

    No elevator Noisy outside the room

    9Kristel A.Posted on: 12-14-2025

    The pool was warm. The reception was easy to talk to. The room was adequate for my stay.

    Nothing really. It was a bit of a walk from the ferry but that was my choice, not the hotel's fault.

    8CHRISTINAPosted on: 12-10-2025

    The units are nice and roomy, location perfect. Nice to have a balcony to sit out on, (just a pity we didn't have a view of the harbour), Staff very friendly and helpful.

    Beds a bit worn.

    10AnitaPosted on: 12-7-2025

    The room would be the best ever. The view was amazing the afternoon sunshine streaming into the room, the view looked up into the hill, plus it covered the seaside and inner harbour. What more could I ask for. Plus the laughter of people enjoying themselves in the pool was great.Highly recommend room 321.

    Having to leave.

    7BrucePosted on: 12-2-2025

    Location excellent for access to ferries

    Very small unit tucked away in back

    3RuthPosted on: 11-22-2025

    Location is close to town

    Bathroom was disgraceful. Filthy scum on floor with long black hairs. A used face cloth was left in the shower. Scum on bottom of shower tray and around shower dial, vanity taps and plug hole. Got NO apology when we complained to reception manager - he said he couldn’t move us to another room as hotel was full but suggested we move up another hotel (but it was late). The water temperature at shower kept fluctuating with hot water scolding my partner so they agreed to refund $75 from the $175 night fee we paid.
