Hotels With Pools in Marlborough, New Zealand

We stayed at Portage Hotel as a family with three children and chose it as one of the final stops of our four-week road trip. It turned out to be one of the absolute highlights of our journey. We were genuinely impressed by the location, the service, and the overall facilities. The setting is simply stunning, peaceful and scenic, yet the hotel offers a wide range of activities, which made it perfect for traveling with kids. Despite being high season, the staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and truly customer-oriented. You never felt rushed or overlooked, which is not always a given during busy holiday periods. We especially appreciated that many activities are included at no extra cost, such as canoes and stand-up paddleboards. There is also a pool, which was a big plus for the children after long days of exploring. The rooms are well equipped and thoughtfully designed. A small but lovely detail was the beautifully scented selection of shampoos and creams provided in the room, which added a very pleasant touch to the stay. The value for money feels absolutely justified. The food was good, the drink selection more than sufficient, and the wine list offered something for everyone. All in all, a fantastic place for families and travelers looking for comfort, nature, and genuine hospitality. We would happily return and can highly recommend the Portage Hotel.

Excellent location, view s and quality rooms.  I grew up in Picton and will always consider it my home town.  It’s great to see these types of services presenting Picton at its best!  Thanks

Very nice hotel. Rooms are clean + bed very confortable + bathroom nice and with a ”big” shower. Front desk very friendly and helpful (especially Belem is very helpful and knows many languages). Next time I will be in Blenheim I will go to the same hotel again. Hope to see you again, Flurin

Privately owned, friendly owners. The room was roomy and clean. There is a sitting area out the back patio doors which was good. The outdoor furniture is a bit older. The bed and linens were good for a 2 night stay. We just needed a place to stay while we toured the area. Havelock where the postal boat tour is just a 35 minute drive away. There is a Countdown grocery store right across the street which was convenient. There are no restaurants within walking distance.

I loved it here!  I was a single traveler, and this was by far the best stay of my 2 weeks in New Zealand.  The rooms are very comfortable, clean, and had a kitchenette.  I tend to over do the adventure on my vacations, but this was my most chill morning on the trip.  The staff is friendly, and as crazy as it sounds, the breakfast was worth it!  I wish I could  have stayed here on the return trip.

Great location near picton port . We Book a standard cabin . No kitchen or bathroom . Just a cabin with a bed . Just check twice before booking cause its not clear in description and pictures of the room are not good one. By the way common kitchen and shared bathroom was very clean. Staff nice also.

The room is large and can accommodate up to four people. It has a large balcony, where you can sit and watch the sea and mountains. The bathroom is clean, there is a refrigerator, safe, plates, knives and forks, and the bed is very comfortable. Picton is a small town, and all places are close to each other. There is a 4 square supermarket in the town.

There is no dissatisfaction, the room is clean and comfortable. Originally booked for 2 nights, but due to the weather the day before, the whale watching trip in kaikoura was postponed, canceled for one night, and the phone and hotel discussions were also very happy to promise to change one night.

Very cozy 2 bedrooms cottages. The farm animals were so adorable. The fruits are free to pick & taste yummy. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Overall we had a wonderful experience at the cottage. Highly recommended 😊

- nice interior design that puts it on the pedestal in the same league; - squeaky clean and spick and span; - very comfortable beds that you are mollycoddled, from the very first moment you hit the sack till getting up, which is the last thing you want. - quiet and reclusive, but easily accessible to the town; - Flexible check out（upon request） - Facilities just as described, almost brand new, wonderful
