The staff were so friendly and helpful. The place was ideally placed in Marlborough sound. Easyish to get to with a pick-up service from the hotel to the quay. Great kayaking and hiking from the hotel doorstep. ##### Caroline Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Katie Mar 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Amazing views, reception staff were very friendly and helpful, we enjoyed lovely fish & chips but were asked to leave due to number of guests wasn’t an issue for us, our luggage was left down at jetty but was quickly resolved, beds were so comfy with mattress topper after two days of biking ##### Katie Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela Feb 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very comfortable stay in a stunning spot Wonderful stay at this hotel in a very beautiful location. The views from our balcony and the restaurant were just stunning! Excellent food for dinner and breakfast and friendly service throughout. We walked in from Punga Cove so really appreciated cooling off in the lovely clean pool. The room was spacious and comfortable with a decent coffee machine and fridge. The weather was very hot so the fan in the room was much appreciated. The team dealt efficiently with the water taxi bag transfer service. ##### Angela Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### David Apr 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I rode the QCT in 3 days, and Portage was my second night in the track. The staff and food were excellent. They offer a morning shuttle for hikers to eliminate the 750m climb back to the track but DO NOT off er the same for cyclists. It’s a heck of a way to start the most difficult day of the track. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/951ce99a-72ae-45e4-8b75-a75d1c75f828-1745768113001.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ae44bac4-b9d0-4ff2-8b85-19000dc22b69-1745768111465.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1d75115e-c592-4d25-ba77-b995250f40de-1745768111813.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/fa26aa0d-300a-42e0-a766-d06f8ef70a7d-1745768112874.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### David Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Chris May 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Amenities Older property but safe, secluded with a beautiful view of Portage Bay and mountains. Rooms have a patio, but no televisions or clocks. Shower floor was slippery. One dining room and separate lounge area with fireplace. Because of major storm damage a few years ago, we were not able to drive to property, instead we needed to take a water taxi from Picton. ##### Chris Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Susan Jan 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The staff at the Portage was very pleasant to interact both at the front desk as well as in the restaurant. I stayed in two different type rooms. The Korimako Sunroom (#20) had a beuatiful view of the bay. As stated on the site, this type of room does not have a deck but the view was beautiful. I appreciated that the room had two twin beds and a full bed for our group of 3 adults. The other room type we stayed in was the Kormiako Room (#41 & #42). These rooms have a nice deck to sit out on and enjoy a beautiful day but unfortunately the trees & greenery have grown up and block and view you might have while sitting on the deck. One of our two rooms also did not have a refrigerator in the room. We enjoyed our fish & chips at the restaurant on site. ##### Susan Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Tasman Holiday Parks – Beachaven](https://www.expedia.ca/Waihi-Beach-Hotels-Beachaven-Top-10-Holiday-Park.h9624344.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Queenstown-Hotels-Hilton-Queenstown-Resort-Spa.h4268206.Hotel-Information) > > [Sennen House](https://www.expedia.ca/Picton-Hotels-Sennen-House.h7120592.Hotel-Information) > > [Carnmore Chateau Marlborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Blenheim-Hotels-Chateau-Marlborough.h2593061.Hotel-Information) > > [Distinction Luxmore Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Anau-Hotels-Distinction-Luxmore-Hotel.h519248.Hotel-Information) > > [Ohakune TOP 10 Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Ohakune-TOP-10-Holiday-Park.h33230446.Hotel-Information) > > [Awaroa Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Awaroa-Bay-Hotels-Awaroa-Lodge.h5417771.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakeview Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Lakeview-Cottage.h37916190.Hotel-Information) > > [Akaroa on the Beach Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Akaroa-Hotels-Akaroa-On-The-Beach-Apartments.h9626017.Hotel-Information) > > [Avon Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hawera-Hotels-Avon-Motel.h9629592.Hotel-Information) > > [Discovery Countrytime Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Omarama-Hotels-Discovery-Countrytime-Hotel.h1145773.Hotel-Information) > > [Arcadia Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Russell-Hotels-Arcadia-Lodge.h9626026.Hotel-Information) > > [Horse and Jockey Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Horse-And-Jockey-Inn.h29357900.Hotel-Information) > > [Prodigal Daughter Gourmet Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Martinborough-Hotels-Prodigal-Daughter-Gourmet-Lodge.h39405385.Hotel-Information) > > [Mohaka River Farm - Campsite](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Haroto-Hotels-Mohaka-River-Farm.h44895522.Hotel-Information) > > [Possum Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Manapouri-Hotels-Possum-Lodge.h76981300.Hotel-Information) > > [Riverside Hotel Marlborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Blenheim-Hotels-Quality-Hotel-Marlborough.h522169.Hotel-Information) > > [Solitaire Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Rotorua-Hotels-Solitaire-Lodge.h3840.Hotel-Information) > > [Nomads Rest](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Nomads-Rest.h27954748.Hotel-Information) > > [Te Anau Central Backpackers](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Anau-Hotels-Te-Anau-Central-Backpackers.h84134490.Hotel-Information) > > [Two Rivers Boutique Lodge Ohakune](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Two-Rivers-Ohakune.h109320695.Hotel-Information) > > [The Matarangi B & B](https://www.expedia.ca/Matarangi-Hotels-The-Matarangi-B-B.h97053938.Hotel-Information) > > [Cabot Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Manapouri-Hotels-Cabot-Lodge.h27335613.Hotel-Information) > > [Stopforths Premium Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Hokitika-Hotels-Stopforths-Premium-Accommodation.h23236034.Hotel-Information) > > [Richmond Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Richmond-Hotels-Richmond-Holiday-Park.h29218591.Hotel-Information) > > [The Blue Pub](https://www.expedia.ca/Methven-Hotels-The-Blue-Pub.h9628177.Hotel-Information) > > [Aqua Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Aqua-Lodge.h51669090.Hotel-Information) > > [The Kaka Point Motels](https://www.expedia.ca/Kaka-Point-Hotels-The-Kaka-Point-Motels.h9679525.Hotel-Information) > > [JetPark Hotel Hamilton Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Jet-Park-Hotel-Hamilton-Airport.h4281130.Hotel-Information)
