    Pros +

    • Location of the hotel is very convenient and close to the ferry station.
    • Good location close to the Picton waterfront
    • ALL the staff! Wonderfully helpful smiling efficient. Have stayed multiple times and always enjoy- see you next time!

    Cons -

    • Checkout time of 10 am is very early. Though I was given checkout at 11 am but it seemed like a big favor from the staff.
    • Definitely not a 4 star (or 3 star) hotel. It was clean and reasonably comfortable but very basic
    • I chose the Beachcomber Inn because it advertised it had parking as we were returning home from holiday with a car full of items which we wanted to keep secure. When we got there, no parks were available and we ended up having to park on the road a good 300 meters from the Inn.

    Such a nice hotel. The staff was great. The view of the harbor is spectacular. Don’t pass up the opportunity to eat upstairs at the fabulous restaurant. Excellent food.

    9JuliePosted on: 1-16-2026

    The Studio Room was perfect for our overnight stay. Lovely, clean and relaxing with a nice patio. Location was great, close to the shops.

    6BrandonPosted on: 1-9-2026

    Room was well laid out. Comfortable beds. Great view of the harbour

    Comfortable room. They do after-hours check-in if you are taking the late ferry from Wellington to Picton. We arrived at midnight and staff was able to arrange a late check-in. Very close to the Picton ferry terminal.

    9AngiePosted on: 12-24-2025

    The location was awesome and had beautiful view. Walkable to the downtown area. Checking in after hours was simple. The room was a good size. We had a family of 4. A fan was also provided in the room and that was much appreciated!

    8WillPosted on: 12-20-2025

    The view and huge balcony were excellent. Some of the clientele and noise were not. The bed was comfortable enough.

    The fact there was no AC was not ideal and we didn't love the electric blankets having hard controllers under the sheet.

    10BernardPosted on: 12-8-2025

    We had a nice clean room on the ground floor with comfortable beds, able to accommodate four people in one room in our case. Beautiful view of the harbour. Also a 5 min drive from the ferry terminal so very well situated for our one night stay after taking the ferry over from the North island.

    Lovely motor inn in beautiful town of Picton.There was a lovely cat that created my husband upon our arrival outside on the patio. ?

    Did not schedule a long enough stay in Picton.

    What didn't I like I loved it,the swimming pool was amazing so fresh, the location,so close to everything.The rooms were spacious and comfortable and had everything you'd need plus my own Balcony,the views holy of Picton harbor were magnificent, if a place is bad I'll say so, but this one I loved it

    I didn't like that I only stayed for one night and not two lol...there wasnt even one thing I disliked

    8JohnPosted on: 10-27-2025

    Very close to downtown and great access to ferry terminals

    Comfortable, but mattress might need some attention

    9JosePosted on: 9-27-2025

    Good location and friendly staff (shout out to Angelica)!

    8MugdhaPosted on: 9-26-2025

    The corner King has a great view, and is spacious. Room was spotlessly clean.

    Bed was soft, but comfortable

    8MugdhaPosted on: 9-22-2025

    Excellent location, spotlessly clean, really good value. Stayed before and after QCT walk.

    Beds were soft.

    10ChantelPosted on: 9-13-2025

    The location is amazing, after a long day on the road and the ferry, it was a short trip to rest. The view is beautiful and such a nice welcome to the South Island.

    7WilliamPosted on: 8-27-2025

    Awesome location. Lovely spacious room, verandah overlooking the inlet, electric skillet, utensils & crook ware.Comfortable bed & pillows, very nice room reasonably priced.

    The room was permeated (including the inside of the microwave) with Glen 20 / disinfectant spray smell, it was soo strong it ruined the first night, (including the food I cooked in the microwave). The second night I kept the verandah door & bathroom window open to create a cross draft, then I was able to sleep. I'm not exaggerating, the overwhelming disinfectant spray odor ruined a very lovely room.

    8IrenePosted on: 8-18-2025

    late check in, but there was still someone at Reception to greet us and direct us to our room.
