Ryokans in Lochmara Bay

"We stayed for one night in room 129 on the first floor of the new extension at the rear of the hotel. The room was just what we wanted - modern with a large bed and a good size bathroom. We had a lovely meal in the busy restaurant. In the morning the hotel (along with the whole of Blenheim) had a power cut. This did not affect us too much as we were flying to Auckland the following day. Would definitely recommend the Chateau as it is conveniently placed and had ample parking. "

"Secure parking., great stuff"

"Lots to do there "

"The care, service and help I received when my stay had to be extended because of ferry cancellations was great. Nothing was a problem and I appreciate it hugely. Thanks "

"The room was excellent and the staff very helpful and friendly."

"Very central to town, staff were very friendly & attentive."

"I needed a place to stay for a couple of hours and this location was perfect. The Intercity bus stop oblique opposite the hostel and the ferry terminal is next door. I booked the same day and the turn around response was exceptional and the self check in directions was easy to follow. The room was clean, the water power was strong and the kitchen was fully stock. "

"Views come 2nd to none"

"Such a beautiful room with spa bath. Very comfortable beds. Management very welcoming, let us leave our bags when we checked out, so we could explore without our heavy bags. Returned to collect bags and caught the bus to Blenheim Motel very centrally located "
