Having booked our rooms a year in advance of our stay in Blenheim we had several phone calls with Jenny leading up to it. She was always extra friendly, professional and willing to assist in any way possible. Upon arrival she was exactly the same. All of our group were very happy with their rooms and the service. We will... More

Jenny & Murray are fantastic hosts. We arrived earlier than we expected to be meet with a welcome smile and a friendly chat. We were able to get ot our room early which was hugely appreciated. Our room was exactly what we were after. It was lovely and clean and tidy. Our hosts were really helpful when we were looking... More

This motel is an ideal overnight stopping point for Inter Island Travellers. This motel is 20 minutes from the Picton Ferry Terminal and is very close to the main Blenheim shopping centre. The motel is quiet, very clean and meets all 'very fussy persons' requirements. I also used the same motel for my return trip from the North Island and... More

I was impressed by the helpfulness of the owners / managers nothing was a problem, a bucket and vase for flowers were I'm sure their own.

Rooms serviced to a high standard and Jenny and Murray were superb hosts and have definitely chosen the right profession for ones so new to the industry.... More

We stayed for two nights on our way from Oamaru up to Auckland. This would be the BEST accommodation that we have stayed in. The owners were lovely, friendly and the room was PERFECT, very clean and they had thought of everything that a travelling family would need. On our return back down from Auckland to Oamaru, we had a... More

Over the past 8 years or so whenever we are in Blenheim we always stay at the Lugano. As a B&B owner myself I can appreciate the work that goes into running their business and would not return here if the quality was not to a good standard. The rooms are very clean, comfortable, well presented and very good value... More
