Testimonial
“What a pleasure to stay at this Motel. Friendly greeting from owner Kent. We spent two nights there. Once on our arrival with the ferry and again when we departed. Rooms spotlessly clean and quiet. Beds comfortable. Great coffee shop across the road and you can walk everywhere.“

Testimonial
“We had a great stay at the Gateway Motel and they had no problem fitting our large group in (about 15 people). Management and staff were great to deal with and very helpful. This is our fourth time at the motel and it gets better each time. We would recommend it to anyone wanting a central location in Picton.“
