From the North Island to the South Island, the place to stay for the ferry is not far from the pier, the room is good, and everything is needed. picton is a port city, the hotel itself is clean, comfortable and quiet, very suitable for a rest night to continue on the road. Very recommended
The space is very large and the environment is good. Just in the town. The front desk was friendly, because it rained on the day we went, and we also provided free hot milk to drive the cold. Recommended stay~
Off-street parking, clean bathrooms, comfy bed w/ clean sheets, cheerful paint and decor, good space heater, host very friendly and welcoming, nice indoor and outdoor common areas (though chairs/couches looks like they could use a cleaning). Carpet and baseboards in room rather dirty as well. Could just be consequence of weather/season/COVID, but overall the place felt a bit tired and bleak. Several other people staying here, but older and not especially social - almost feels like they live here and I'm intruding (which, fair enough - times have been hard for the tourism industry and locals alike - just FYI depending on your vibe preferences).

Two days in Sokcho, living in Ramada feels very convenient. There is a sashimi street at the door. The fish in the market is eaten immediately. It is very enjoyable to eat sashimi. The hotel is by the sea and the scenery is very good. You can walk to the lighthouse when you come out downstairs. It is very close to the filming location of ”Boyfriend”, where the male protagonist sits and reads under the lighthouse. Shocho is a good place. Seafood is much cheaper in Seoul. The scenery is also very good. Next time you come to Sokcho, you will choose Ramada.
We had a Studio apartment with ensuite and own cooking facilities. It was clean and comfortable and the staff were very helpful. There was no microwave in the room which was very small with a table and 2 chairs outside on the balcony. We were close to the office and disturbed by guests arriving past 10pm and talking loudly. I was able to use the microwave in the shared kitchen. We did not think it was good value for the money when compared to other places we stayed at. However we were well located to catch the early morning ferry across to Wellington which was a priority. Next time I wd stay a little further out and catch a later ferry. We got much better value accommodation in Wellington.
We were passing through Picton. We stayed at Top of the Town a couple of years ago and were made to feel so welcome by Tracee and Bryan that we wanted to stay with them again. It was great, they welcomed us like old friends and it was lovely to be back. When I stay somewhere I just want it to be clean. It’s VERY clean, it’s modern, immaculate, our room was spacious, there’s water bottles in your fridge, microwave, bathrobes etc… We had been traveling the South Island and stayed in other places where I had to clean the room before unpacking my stuff. So what a relief to stay with them and be in boutique quality. Top marks again to Top of the Town!
We just loved it here! it was without question the best accomodation we had whilst in NZ. We were offed a complementary glass of wine nibbles on arrival. The room was so tastefully decorated and massive joined by a very generous bathroom with freestanding bathtub & shower. Our host could not do enough to assist us (she is also the chef😋Our bed was turned down, the breakfast was absolutely delicious & generous we just loved it! Shared balcony off our room overlooking the marina & right in the heart of town. We would definitely come again!!! The only thing that was missing was a fridge(which of course would not fit in with the style of the room).

The location is excellent. Easy parking. The kitchen is upscale. Clean and comfortable. Easy to eat downstairs. Facing the sea view, comfortable. The house is not very soundproof, and someone snoring next door makes me noisy until late at night to fall asleep. The instructions said there was a shower cap, but I couldn't find it after looking for it for a long time. Maybe you forgot to put it?
What a surprise, don't be fooled by the age of this motel, built in the 1960s and still going strong. For comfort, cleanliness and a very warm welcome from the owners. We were pleasantly surprised. This is a full equipt motel with all cooking appliances and this came in very handy when we have gifted a Cray Fish from one of the locals. Comfort is the rule here with great bathroom and toilet facilities in the room
Very Good

CCheng EnThe host was super helpful and even made a special late night delivery when we asked for help with some necessities. Would recommend to people who wants to be close to the train station and ferry terminal. It’s just right next door.
I booked for 1 night and ended up staying 3 night. Top notch accommodation in one of their queen ensuite rooms - comfy bed with beautiful linen, an ever changing view of the harbour from my deck and everything was spotlessly clean. Hosts Barry and Nikki were very knowledgeable about Picton, transport and events; and very friendly too. Clean shared kitchen with huge fridges to store food. Free delicious home-made scones with butter and jam to boot. I liked the cats and a small dog that hung around - it all made Tombstone a very homely stay.
Rreturn visitorReally friendly greeting at office, took me up see our room. Handy location in the city opposite a big supermarket. Full kitchen Not, fridge a bit too enthusiastic froze our milk. Not noisy, great beds and pillows.only down side was tiny shower head and not great water pressure.
002026131We are travelling throughout New Zealand and have pre-booked accommodation every couple of days. On Thursday 7th March we took the ferry from North Island to South Island and booked into The Gables B&B for 2 nights. Things didn’t get off to a great start when the lady who met us stated we couldn’t park our car on site, only to later retract this and ‘allow’ us to park for one night only. We were shown to our room, a largish room with a double bed covered in 11 pillows and cushions and a single bed also covered in cushions and pillows. Much fuss was made of the offer of a small glass of wine from the Marlborough area. Our bathroom was across the landing, which we were unable to lock. Our room had no water or water glasses, no tea tray, no TV (we understand this is considered a historic B&B) and no bin. However, the whole room and house smelt really strongly of lilies, the smell was overpowering. We were tired so went to bed reasonably early, so were awake at 6.00am the following morning. My husband went to the communal lounge and dining room to get some tea at about 7.00am as we were gasping for a drink and there was nothing in the room! He was promptly told off by the host/proprietor who stated there was no access to this communal facility until 8.00am. He was then accused of waking up other guests. At breakfast the host then accused a Danish couple of breaking a window in a very aggressive manner, however, they had shown us a picture of the window hanging off on one hinge with a gale blowing through. It clearly needed maintenance. We had seen enough and decided to leave immediately, so packed up and left. We did not request a refund for the night we didn’t stay, but our accommodation provider did raise this only to be refused. The host stated we should have told him of the issues we had before leaving. We disagree, the whole experience, coupled with the stench from the lilies, meant we just wanted to get away.
RRBieriThe hotel itself is a bit dated but well maintained and clean. The service was good and breakfast was substantial. Pool seemed unused for years with black spots of algae but we were not really into swimming so its ok. The room size were nice and big but sound proof is not too good. We can hear the kids playing from the other room. Beds were good and comfy. Smells clean and soft. Location is good. Walking distance to everything you need.
GGuest UserI had a great stay at Piwaka ( actually, 2 different stays). Lodge is great located, in the middle of Picton with everything handy. It has 2 kitchens, so plenty of space for your cookings. Breakfast is included, rooms are simple but comfortable and clean ( loved that the dorm rooms have a basin, really handy). And Nicci the owner is just amazing, helped me with tips and sorting my transfer to Queen Charlotte Track. Would definitely go back! Luciana
