Jasmine Court Motel

What guests think

Across many reviews, Jasmine Court Motel is praised for very clean, spacious, well equipped rooms and a convenient, walkable location near the ferry, train and shops, with quiet surroundings and generally friendly, helpful staff suited to short stopovers.

Facilities include on-site laundry and convenient parking, though a few found the dryer slow or costly and trailer parking restricted. Rooms vary a little in style; some feel dated, beds can be firm, and several note no air conditioning, while select units feature spa baths. Multiple reviews cite a strict early checkout with limited flexibility and occasional brusque responses; breakfast is not provided and in-room beverage options are basic, so many guests use nearby cafes. Overall, expect a practical base well suited to Picton stopovers and ferry connections.

This place was spotless. Clearly they move furniture and vacuum under all the furniture. How often does that happen? Reception was friendly and helpful. Location is great. I only needed a microwave and a frig but the there were also a couple of stove burners that could be handy. Also a couch which is nice if you are spending a couple of days. Note: there’s no elevator. The laundry was expensive and the dryer didn’t dry well. Otherwise all was great. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Hotel won’t accept trailers on site; we did not know this until we arrived. Site says limited parking, but there was plenty there! Host were not helpful at all. Had to leave trailer with expensive work equipment out on the road. Not worth the over $200 we paid for the one night. Will not stay again, and will not recommend to anyone travelling with a trailer,

We stayed here based on the previous favorable reviews. However, I can’t agree with those reviews. Perhaps they had better rooms, but other than the space being large and convenient to downtown and the ferry, there wasn’t much to like. The sheets and pillowcases were stained, the couch may have come out of a college dorm room, the shower curtain had mold growing, and the bedroom TV remote was disgusting. I had to immediately put it down and wash my hands. This is a definite No for me.

Everything was great about our stay except for the misunderstanding in the morning about check out time. Our confirmation with Expedia showed that the check out was 11am. Just after 10 a cleaner came into our room telling us our check out was 10, even though the Expedia app said 11am! Shortly afterwards the reception manager came to our room to tell us we were wrong! She was quite aggressive. So we hurried up our breakfast (the hotel details said you could get a continental breakfast there, but it’s not available any more). We eventually checked out at 10.45 but an unfortunate end to our stay, which apart from that was wonderful. As we are in the hospitality business we would have handled this misunderstanding differently. We were going to book another night in Jasmine Court on our return journey, but won’t be doing this now.

This was the only lodging we've stayed at in NZ that did NOT post checkout times. It's also the place that turned out to have the earliest checkout time. Yet at a few minutes after 10 the proprietor was knocking on our door to inform my wife that we were late checking out and there might be an overcharge. Rude and not very hospitable.

We spent 2 nights here after travelling from Christchurch to Picton on the Coastal Railway. About a 10 minute walk from the train station but only 5 minutes back into the heart of Picton. Very spacious and clean studio rooms. Plenty of off street parking although not required by us. Highly recommend if visiting Picton or transiting to the Ferry.

Picton was acquaint little town and Jasmine Court was a great property for a small town. The room was spacious and have a full kitchenette. As Picton is small everything was walkable from there. We walked with luggage from there to the train station with no problem. The word motel had me worried, but it was truly one of the nicest rooms we've stayed in on this trip.
