Atlantis Backpackers, hotel in Picton

Slightly odd little hostel with murals etc but quite cosy for it. For those booking private rooms, they are actually open at the top which surprised me but wasnt much of an issue. The living room and fireplace are nice for a chill. Its good value for money. Great location for the ferry.

High Street Living Motel, hotel in Picton

Located in the heart of Picton, High Street Living Motel offers heated rooms with a kitchenette or kitchen and a flat-screen TV. The Picton Ferry Terminal is just 2461 feet away.

It was centrally located, easy to walk anywhere in town, clean and tidy, with a pleasant feel about it. Parking is pretty tight with bigger cars, but the host helped organise everyone in and out, working together so we could get to our ferry without stress. Would return to stay in Picton longer!

    Charming waterfront and very child friendly.

    Charming waterfront and very child friendly. The pirate boat play area and splash pad is so nice for the little ones. We only walked around the centre up to the walkway bridge which present a marvelous view. As we are not trekkers, we only passed by Picton to proceed to Nelson from Wellington, and as overnight stop for the Interisland ferry back. There were many road closures when we visited. Perhaps next time, we will explore the surrounds.

    A lovely little town with some fabulous walks.

    A lovely little town with some fabulous walks. Stay a couple of days after getting off the ferry instead of just driving through. ( Although a little busy when a cruise ship arrived in port, but they are not there every day!)

    The ferries between the north and south island arrives/leaves from Picton. You can kayak, dine or hit the Queen Charlotte Track. The track is a total of 70km with accommodation along the way. The views are stunning, the track well maintained, the lodges comfortable and offering great meals.

    Great place.

    Great place. We stayed at Picton Campervan Park and it was a great walking distance to pubs and town. They have cabins that are absolutely spotless and so comfortable. The beach and foreshore are just alive with people, watching all the flash boats coming and going. Sitting on the veranda of the Waitoi Tavern, sheltered from the sun and enjoying conversation with friendly people travelling was just tops. And the meals at the Waitoi Tavern were value for money in comparison to the other pubs. Fish was so fresh! and plenty of it on the plate! We only stayed two nights, just wasn't long enough, already planning another trip!

    Picton is the gateway to the Sounds.

    Picton is the gateway to the Sounds. We were meeting our daughter and husband to make daytrips on their yacht to outer bays, sailing and fishing, but there are water taxis which will drop/collect to various bays for swimming and fishing. There are lovely walking tracks. Nice place to visit.

    The location is just perfect if you are traveling by public transportation. Max. 5 min walk to ferry, train and bus stops. Main shopping street with many restaurants and bars just 1 block away. The harbor with green area and yacht docks just across the street. The staff give a warm welcome and are very friendly. The social room well equipped with comfortable armchairs, books, games, and music instruments (even a piano). Kitchen clean and has all you may expect from a youth hotel, and the staff are there to help with anything.

    Staying at the Picton Yacht Club Hotel was perfect for us as a stopover on the way through from the South to the North Islands. Next time we will stay longer as the PYCH was ideally placed to explore this pretty region. We were given a warm welcome on a cool night and found the restaurant to be very good. It was just a few minutes walk with suitcases to the ferry terminal the next day. The staff were excellent and the hotel itself proved to be a great sanctuary, with lovely views and comfortable beds.

    Unbelievable! We saw a rare native white spoonbill wading in front of the hotel. And ducks visited us for bread. I wish we could have stayed longer as it was calm and idyllic. This hotel is now our favourite and we will be staying every time we drive through. Wonderful lady greeted us and made us feel at home. Cleanliness is extremely important to me, and the place was spotless. The linen was perfect and the bed comfortable. Thank you so much 😊

    The property was very close to the main streets. There were lots of eateries just around the corner from the hotel in easy walking distance. It was a 5 minute walk to the train station and the ferry terminal. Very close to the Picton foreshore as well. Staff were very friendly and had our room ready to check in when. We arrived.off the ferry earlier than stated. They were happy.to hold our luggage as well if we had to wait for check-in.

    It’s really quiet though only 100 meters from Hwy 1. Surrounded by gardens and fields. Very clean and well equipped. Loved waking up to the birds. Close enough to Picton to see the museums and eat.
