Originally built in the 1920s, Picton House B&B and Motel is ideally located for exploring the Queen Charlotte Track. It is 5 minutes' walk from the waterfront. There is a swimming pool and free on-site parking. Guests enjoy free WiFi.

Room is a bit oldschool, with separate hot/cold taps in the bathroom and kitchen but you get such a big room for the price, it's worth it. You get a little dining area and couches with a nice TV, there was two beds in the room we stayed in. Location is excellent and plenty of parking. Also this destination seems to attract repeat customers, which is always a good sign. I don't understand these other reviews where people say the owner is rude - she may be abrupt on the phone when busy, but frankly Coral has been nothing but an absolute pleasure to deal with, she was welcoming right from the get go and made sure I got in nicely and was very chatty/friendly. I had left my smartphone behind and she allayed my fears immediately promised to take good care of it until I could send out a self-addressed courier bag. What an absolute legend, honest & trustworthy. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Looking for a motel?

Both travellers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help to make check-in quick and easy.

    The motel owner was friendly, helpful and our later arrival was not a problem. Our room was clean and the bed very comfortable. The motel is situated in the main shopping centre so within easy walking distance of restaurants, cafes and takeaway premises (5 to 10mins). This motel offered all that we required for the start of South Island trip so we ended up booking another night for our return to North Island. Totally recommend High Street Living Motel.

    The location was perfect for our one-night stay, with its easy walk to the town centre and harbour. Cleanliness was 100 percent and we liked the separate bedrooms - having a dedicated living area made the motel feel very spacious. The table and chairs outside were a nice touch.

    Excellent views, spacious modern and comfortable room. Exceptionally well equipped kitchen with everything you could possibly think of needing. Quite literally the best motel I have stayed in for a long time. Our host went above and beyond helping us with our laundry which was very kind and helpful.
