The property is amazing. Definitely a good deal considering the price paid for the room. The breakfast is amazing. Definitely better than staying in some anonymous hotel/motel in the area. Staff super friendly and available.

This place is fancy. Lovely deep bathtub, a chandelier in the bedroom and the bathroom. I felt a bit like Marie Antoinette lazing about Versailles! Big sumptuous bed. I slept like a baby.

Stayed in the Formal Suite. Beautifully appointed and all the little extras were fabulous such as a complimentary glass of wine which was much appreciated after four days of walking the Queen Charlotte track. Loved the bath and the bed was lovely and comfortable.

Overall this is a lovely hotel and restaurant. We stayed in the Sea Room which unfortunately I would not recommend. The room has no fan or aircon and it is quite stuffy. We opened the windows but the room is at street level so the pedestrians could see directly into our room. We closed the curtains for privacy but then the room had no fresh air as the curtains are heavy. Also, be warned that the bathroom only has a large tub. Its a lovely bath but you need to climb in and out to shower or bathe.

Charming hotel. Welcome drink and petit fours were lovely. Very welcoming host, excellent and knowledgeable. Grateful for early bag drop off. It is an old house so there are some creaky floor boards above if you are ground floor but not too much of an issue. Beautiful bath tub and lavender toiletries. Perfect location. I would recommend. Picton is beautiful.

This boutique hotel exceeded our expectations by far! They even had a cute desert platter for us in the room upon check in and brought us complimentary wine upon arrival (from the hotel restaurant) and croissants and lattes in the morning! Elizabeth made our stay very pleasurable and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and got us a table at the restaurant even though we didn’t make a resi ahead of time and they were clearly very busy! The food at the hotel restaurant was amazing! Highly recommend if you’re looking for some luxury or a romantic getaway :)
