Lovely Harbour view over the quieter Marina rather than the Ferries. Walkable from Railway Station/ Ferry Terminal.
Small pretty town but everything you need is available.

Wonderful location with a stunning view of the harbour and a lovely comfortable clean room. Lovely to have a balcony to sit out on and enjoy the views. Parking was a little tight, but I wouldn’t let that put me off staying again.

Great place to stay in Picton. Very clean with nice staff. The room had an awesome view with a balcony, and included a small kitchenette which was a nice surprise. As others have mentioned, parking is super tight, but we didn't have any problems with it. We would definitely stay here again!

The room was clean, the harbor view was incredible, and we watched a beautiful sunset over the mountains! The only thing to note, is it is on a steep hill which is a little tricky driving up to the hotel parking, so we parked on the street, which was fine.
