Top Melville Cove Hotel Reviews

Picton Accommodation Gateway Motel

10/10 Excellent

"in the centre of picton town was quiet, affordable and clean"

Picton Beachcomber Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The property was located approximately 200metres from bars and restaurants and was on the main road to the picton ferries. We had a fabulous view of the harbour and marina. Parking wasn’t an issue. Will stay here again"

Harbour View Motel

8/10 Good

"Thetwo bedroom apartment is wellappointed with a good lookout. The tableand and balcony, leading onto the grassy shared seating area, is clever. The apartment layout is good and having the bedrooms down stairs is also a good layout. The shower unit is perhaps in need of perhaps some renovation however has good water pressure. The kitchen area is perfect. The blinds in the main bedroom do let light in the morning. The windows also allowed some wind noise to pass through but did not disrupt sleep but one was aware of it. The motel has good car parking. Easy walking into the town of Picton. It was a nice stay and I think good value for money."

Broadway Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent staff, very friendly and helpful. Motel is older style but comfortable. Enjoyed our stay here"
