Grove Park Motor Lodge is located in Blenheim, 24 minutes' drive from Picton Ferry Terminal and 3-minute's drive from Blenheim Station and ASB Convention Centre. Free private parking is available on site. Very clean room and the staff was phenomenal. I was having a little problem with the rental car and the manager walked over with me to the garage across the street to help get it fixed. The other manager moved my car to the parking spot by the room and carried my heavy bag into the room for me. The room was very nice and had everything we needed. These people went above and beyond to do anything to make our stay the best.

Milford Sound Lodge offers a seating area with a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with free toiletries, a hairdryer and shower. Some units include a balcony and/or a patio with river views. When we arrived at Milford Sound Lodge, we were informed that the road would be closed the following day. Unfortunately we could not stay but the staff member, Gillian, immediately confirmed we could cancel without any penalties. The money was refunded promptly. We were disappointed we couldn’t stay as the lodges looked fab but with the amazing customer service we received, I have no doubt it would have been a wonderful stay.
