Parking can be tight with multiple utes that may be there. Rooms are large and comfortable. Would be nice if the rooms could have a chrome cast plugged in to each room so that you could stream your own Netflix or Disney . Have stayed before loved it then loved it now awesome stay will definitely come back.

The property was perfectly located for our stay! We went to the Marlborough food and wine Festival and the bus picked us up just two blocks from the hotel. The manager was accommodating and let us into our room early so we wouldn't be late for our event!! After the festival the pool at the hotel was nice and refreshing after such a hot day. Perfect!!

Friendly host checking in. The two bedroom unit we booked was small and needed upgrading. Lacking a few things (only one mirror and that was in the bathroom), the furniture was super large for the space. It was very clean. Ants though, definitely couldn't leave any open food out! Overall, it was average compared to other motels we've stayed at in Blenheim in the past however, new owners so who knows what plans they may have!

We only stayed for one night, the room we had was nice and spacious for our family. The room was tidy, clean and warm. The kitchen was well appointed and easy for cooking in. We didn't visit the surrounding area as we were only passing through but it was very easy to find. The only thing for us was the road noice but we live rurally so are not used to any noise at night.

Instead of bbq use, we made good chicken cordon bleu from scratch in our electric frypan with lid. Easy access (drive to) beaches, groceries and info centre. Plenty of wineries all around this beautiful region. We so enjoyed our time.
