📍 25 Waikawa Road, Picton

"Good location. In the city centre, near Picton to Wellington / Wellington to Picton ferry terminal (Cook Strait) , about 15 minutes walk. Many restaurants, shops and supermarkets are nearby."

Sennen House Boutique Accommodation
9.7 (54 reviews)

Sennen House Boutique Accommodation ★★★★

📍 9 Oxford Street, Picton

"We had a wonderful stay at Sennen House and were made to feel very at home by Michelle and Stefan and Harvey the dog. The accommodation was tasteful and suited the age of the house. The setting in beautiful grounds was calming and peaceful. Sennen House is close to town and so much more enjoyable than a hotel. It was nice to feel part of a bygone era for a couple of days."

Beachcomber Inn Picton

Beachcomber Inn Picton ★★★★

📍 27 Waikawa Road, Picton

"The staff were incredibly nice, and our room was both spacious and spotless. The location is also super convenient, just an easy 10 minute walk to the ferry terminal. But the on-site parking space is extremely limited."

Aldan Lodge
8.7 (111 reviews)

Aldan Lodge ★★★★

📍 86 Wellington Street, Picton

"Don't have too high expectations. It's normal and livable. The overall transportation cost in New Zealand is relatively high. This low price is also a good deal. I wish you all a happy trip to New Zealand"

"Incredible hospitality from the owner, Shearer and her husband. We were there on New Year's Eve and after we returned post the midnight fireworks, she laid on a spread and some drinks for all the guests. Beds were comfy and facilities were very good. Great stay and excellent value for money."

The Gables B&B Hotels in Picton

The Gables B&B

"We stayed at The Gables for 2 nights before taking the ferry to the North Island Unfortunately after 2 weeks in the South Island this was the very worst accommodation of our trip so far. From the moment we arrived We and another couple of guests turned up at the same time shortly after 3 pm There was no one at the house and after a couple of phone calls (one incohérent) somebody eventually let us in to our rooms We had booked one of the cottages at the back which was probably our biggest mistake The cottage was shabby, kitchen cupboard in need of work, dirty (eg coffee granules all over one shelf), the kitchen was very poorly equipped (eg empty box of tea bags and no teaspoons), flies everywhere with no fly screen so we were unable to open the windows and as there is no air conditioning the room was very hot. Absolutely nowhere to put a suitcase other than the floor or sofa. Uncomfortable bed and thin pillows. The shower is extremely basic and a little grimy. Some very basic products just placed on the floor. No hooks either. There is a small untended garden at the front of the cottage. There are old bits of building equipment eg wheelbarrows strewn around. Parking could have been an issue as the details say only free on street parking is available We and the other couple parked at the back of the house where there was plenty of room to park although we had read that the host had previously objected to guests parking there. The wifi wouldn’t work for the first 24 hours although this was available on our second night The whole house, cottages, and outside areas are run down and very much past their best. The house is now bright blue and not as in the picture. Breakfast was pretty dismal. Squash not orange juice, ordinary sliced bread covered with a bit of cling film, various pots of vegemite, jam plonked in middle of the table. Everything self service. A couple of pain au chocolat were provided but no offer of an alternative. No hosting is going on at this unloved B and B. It is very much in need of a host who cares about the guests and what is required to run a good B and B Apparently the owner also runs the Escape to Picton boutique hotel and restaurant.Good luck"

Sennen House Boutique Accommodation ★★★★
"An excellent boutique experience. Sennen House has a story to tell, and it’s a beautiful place to discover it. Set in a quiet location, its grounds are fantastic, utilising every piece of space cleverly; the welcoming croquet set was a taste of what was to come. The room we stayed in was great. Nice views and good spaces. Having a separate living and dining area is always a bonus, but its well appointed kitchen with a coffee machine was an extra one! The little baking treats left each day were lovely touches and were enjoyed. It was lovely to organise and portion out our own breakfast each morning, and having ownership of this was a bonus. If we are lucky enough to visit Picton again, we would definitely make this venue our first choice."

Broadway Motel ★★★★
"The next day, I took an early ferry from Picton to Wellington, so I arrived in Picton a day in advance. The hostess of the hotel was warm and friendly, and was willing to help. She didn't need to deposit any orders, passports, or credit cards. It was very simple and straightforward. The hotel is also in a good location, only 1 km from the check-in location at the pier and the road signs are eye-catching (Figures 8 and 9). It is diagonally opposite the supermarket and gas station 50 meters away. It is worth recommending."

"Very clean and tidy small hotel with convenient parking. It only takes a few minutes to walk from the Picton Ferry Terminal. I regret not staying one more night because I was not familiar with it and did not have time to walk the nearby coastal greenway."
