Very kindly the exceptional concierge left the key for us after travel cancellation meant we were very late arriving. Good friendly service and a lovely view over the harbour. NZ is expensive so the cost was not out of line with other properties. I would recommend it. We got the penultimate free room so obviously it is v popular.

The staff were welcoming but the accommodation was 'tired'- room facilities and decor need an upgrade. There are no locks on windows, so it is not possible to have a window open for ventilation. Restaurant was closed.

Love the location and the view from the room, staff were friendly and the resturant was nice How ever the master beds were very uncomfortable and felt every spring on the mattress (king suite), bathrooms need a spruce up as they are quite aged.

Cleanliness and staff excellent. Parking was a bit tight. We had a 4x4 and could barely open up the doors with the cars next to us. Showerheads in rooms were terrible. They need to upgrade to a slider shower.

On arrival receptionist told us about restaurant and need to book etc. On checking into room there was a note "your room will not be serviced during your stay." Paying over NZ$300 per night would have expected room to be serviced. Motel is a bit tired with no air conditioning and a balcony which was not private. Did not enjoy the cigarette smell from room next door. Booked a spa room but didn't expect the shower over the spa bath which was not great. Having visited Picton many times before this will be our first and last booking at this motel.

This hotel was a lovely find. We took the Interislander ferry and it was just a short 5 minute drive. We arrived after normal check in hours but because I had prepaid with Expedia it was no problem to make arrangements to pick up my hotel key. They left it in a convent spot that was easy for me to locate. In the morning we checked out and had a chance to chat with the staff. Incredibly friendly and helpful with suggestions we had asked for. 10/10 would recommend!

We were happy with our one night stay at the Picton Beachcomber Inn and would recommend to all. Checkin was handled in a friendly and efficient manner. Our room was spacious, clean, light and airy. Bed was comfortable and sheets were crispy fresh! We would stay again if we are in this neck of the woods in future.

Very nice hotel on the harbor. The staff at the front desk was very nice and upgraded our room to a suite. We had a mini fridge and even little stove with all the kitchen accessories you would need to cook in. We didn't get a chance to try the restaurant but heard good things.

Great Location
Excellent Location and Scenic Views from Room 301, but Slightly Expensive at $300 per night. Despite the sign indicating a refurbishment in 2013, the property appears a bit worn and could benefit from some updating.

The location of the property was good, easy walking into the township great view out onto the Harbour. Our room was terribly serviced, I could understand if it was a bit of a rush to get this ready but we checked in well after check in time, dirty dishes in the sink in the bathroom etc, when you Pay $250 for the night you would expect to walk into a place that doesn't look the last people just left, won`t be staying here again
