Hotel d'Urville is a ten-room boutique hotel in a restored 1920s art deco building on Queen Street, in the heart of Blenheim. The building was completed in 1923 as the Public Trust office, designed by the Wellington architect William Gray Young, and it is one of the few Heritage New Zealand listed buildings left in Blenheim. The old vault remains at the core of the building, and its original steel doors now open onto guest rooms.
No two rooms are alike. The website describes four-poster beds, exotic fabrics and antiques, with nine rooms on the second floor, reached by a sweeping staircase, and an executive suite on the ground floor. The building has no lift. A guest review quoted on the website praises the staff, the food and the cocktails. The hotel is surrounded by the Marlborough wine region, and it marked its centenary in 2023. The building came through the 2016 Marlborough earthquakes with only damage to internal plasterboard walls.
