Not crowded at all when we were there, almost eerily deserted in winter. Great value for a last minute change in itinerary due to closed mountain passes. Kind and polite staff, decent food. Free wifi, comfortable beds, but not friendly to bare feet due to sharp raised metal threshhold between carpet and tile. Would benefit from better coffee and remembering to close the hall windows in winter, and allowing access to sauna without having to notify staff in advance.

The Scenic Hotel Marlborough was absolutely adorable!! It had super easy parking and was in a very walkable area. We enjoyed relaxing at the hotel the entire time. Dinner at the restaurant was fantastic, and their wine selection was top-notch. The bar staff were knowledgeable with great recommendations. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and professional. I loved staying here and would definitely go back if I had the chance.

Comfortable stay

Great service from Caroline on the front desk. Our room was ample and comfortable for our two night stay. Free parking was a bonus. EV charger available, too. There was a strange buzzing sound in the first room we were given, which would have kept us awake, so we were glad to be moved to a quieter room on the ground floor. I would stay here again when in Blenheim.
