Quiet lovely hotel that is right across street from the river, the river walk, and a bridge into town. Comfortable room and bed, lovely shower and heater in bathroom. Perfect for a couple days stay to go to wineries.

Motel-style stay
I think this is a regular hotel for Blenheim; however, it was a bit like a motel park place. On the vintage side of things. The shower is no telephone-like and there were long hairs in the tub. The bed was very soft, but warm enough. There is no heating so it got a bit chilly overnight.
