HOTEL D’URVILLE, BLENHEIM

THE MOST PICTURESQUE RURAL COMMUNITIES

In Hotel d’Urville you could be in tribal Africa, magical Asia, at sea or even in a previous era. All without leaving Marlborough’s most interesting town.

Put the Hotel d’Urville on the itinerary of your luxury, tailor-made holiday to New Zealand and you have a choice of continents in which to sleep. The hotel’s 11 guest rooms have been, idiosyncratically but beautifully, styled to reflect Cuba, African, Asian, nautical and retro themes. You could even sleep in New Zealand – in a lovely room paying tongue-in-cheek reference to Kiwi kitsch. So the décor is eye-catching, and the levels of comfort are exemplary.

But Hotel d’Urville also puts you in the centre of Blenheim, one of the prettiest country towns in the whole of Marlborough. It’s an Art Deco-style masterpiece – originally built in the 1920s – and is close to all the local attractions, the historic sites, the sight-seeing opportunities, shops and restaurants of town.

“FLAWLESS, AGAIN”

This is the third time I’ve used TUTC. The service, as before, was flawless. Aside from putting in place all the major details of a complex trip to Japan, Dan at TUTC nailed every detail: train tickets were for seats with large luggage space (very important in Japan, as we discovered); a mobile internet wifi was included; together with a pre-charged use-pretty-much-anywhere travel card (again, important – Japan has multiple transport companies). For any kind of complex trip I won’t go anywhere else.

“TRIP TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD”

Everything about our trip was excellent. While it’s a considered investment, the service more than justifies the cost. We loved the accommodation – beautifully chosen and thoughtfully located. Our guides ranged from grear to truly exceptional. And the places we visited? They exceeded all expectations. Peru is an extraordinarily beautiful country, and this journey gave us a real sense of its wonder.

“A TRIP OF A LIFETIME, PERFECTLY PLANNED”

Dear Claire, our trip was 100% amazing. We fell in love with Chile. I love how we were introduced to all of the different parts of the country. Our family was engaged in all of the fun from beginning to end. The lodges were just perfection. I wouldn’t have changed a thing. I really appreciate all you did to make our trip a trip of a lifetime.
