Nelson|0.9km from city centre
Absolutely LOVED the presidential suit I booked for 2 adults and 3 children. So clean, beds were comfortable, facilities were perfect for a young family. Our hosts Ric and Tina were absolutely amazing and went over and above to service us. They offered beach towels for outings, washing and drying services and daily cleans. Can't recommend this place enough! 20/10!
Delorenzo Studio Apartments

The Wood|0.61km from city centre
Hotel location is convenient, walk to the main street of the city 7-8 minutes. The kitchen and bathroom facilities are complete, and the separate kitchen is suitable for those who like to cook their own meals. If you bring a child, you will have to pay for the child. Filling out the child information when booking a room automatically calculates the room rate and automatically assigns the appropriate room. If you temporarily increase your child's stay, you will need to add a child's room rate. This is a motel with plenty of parking.

This was our second time staying here, and it was just as good as we previously found it. It’s clean and modern, with a very good standard of fit out and furnishings. It’s quiet, and with a very comfortable bed meant we had a couple of good nights sleep. It’s an easy 10 minute stroll to the centre of town and restaurants. We’ll be back for a third stay in the future.

YHA Nelson by Accents

Nelson|0.37km from city centre
We sandwiched a trip to the Abel Tasman National Park with a night either end at YHA Nelson. Our ensuite room was clean, comfortable and very reasonably priced and we appreciated being able to store unneeded luggage while we were away. Lots of good eateries within walking distance but if you want to self-cater there is a large and well equipped shared kitchen. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. Take up their offer to book your taxi to the airport - the subsequent discount on the fare was a nice little end to our holiday!

Rutherford Hotel Nelson - A Heritage Hotel

Nelson|0.61km from city centre
Great location, Staff were lovely, place was dated but tidy. Dinner Restaurant is still closed due to covid. The main reason for the down review is I had booked with a voucher for the first night that included breakfast. I asked for 2 more nights and expected breakfast. When I checked in, I validated it was but when we checked out was told not the case so we paid $69 (2 pax) per day for an avg breakfast that had we known we would have gone elsewhere and paid less. Mgr on duty would not budge or even apologise. Disappointed as I would have rated much higher

Quest Nelson
4.1/547 Reviews

Quest Nelson

Nelson|0.43km from city centre
We stayed here for two nights before and after walking the Abel Tasman Track. The welcome from the receptionist on the 15th March was very professional and polite. We had a King Studio on the 5th floor for our first stay which was clean and spacious. If you are short it would be difficult to reach some of the kitchen items on the top shelf. The central location was brilliant as we could walk to all the shops, galleries, gardens and cafes. Fresh Choice supermarket is just down the road. Kitchen is well-equipped. Great to have a washer/dryer to wash all tramping clothes after the walk. Our second stay was in a second floor room which did not have such a good view but was still excellent. We did not hear any other guest noise in either stay apart from occasional doors shutting. Outside noise is obliterated when the windows are closed - this noise was minimal anyway. House keeping staff were polite and friendly. Definitely recommended. The baggage storage facility was great for when we did the Abel Tasman Walk. Reception staff were very helpful. We felt very relaxed and comfortable in the apartment.
Palms Motel
4.5/534 Reviews

Palms Motel

Nelson|0.25km from city centre
Excellent service right from booking to stay. We had a family group of seven adults and Robyn organised two side by side units which perfectly suited our situation. All admin staff very friendly and helpful. The units were extremely clean and well appointed for our needs. With a supermarket across the road and a walk of ten minutes into town this was a great position. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

The Honest Lawyer, Ascend Hotel Collection

Monaco|0.3km from city centre
I really wanted to give this place a 4 star, but the location of a wedding party opposite my room and the surprising lack of breakfast ( just a box of weetabix and some cookies) made it a little disappointing for me….. That’s a shame as the hotel/pub is a nice place., tranquil (when there is no wedding), a few meters from a great walking path along the coast towards Nelson or Richmond and with a fine pub with good food all on site. The staff are friendly, rooms are clean (if starting to look a little tired) and have most things you could need, even a spa bath! If I was here again however I would investigate the newer and better looking hotel over the road…..
The Beachcomber Hotel
4/5103 Reviews

The Beachcomber Hotel

Tahunanui|0.79km from city centre
The location is very good. Right next to the beach. It is close to McDonald's and KFC, liquor stores, restaurants, and children's playgrounds. Hygienic and clean. But the room facilities are older. The toilet seat lids are so old they don't look good and won't be replaced. The power safe is in the bedroom, and the sound of the current is loud and harsh. It's fine during the day, but too harsh at night. Said to fix it, but never came. There was no parking space when I went back after dinner. One day, the staff drove away her car and gave up the parking space. Later, when it was later, we tried not to drive. The service staff were very responsive, we had already left and they called to say we had left behind our children's clothes. really thankful.

Absolutely LOVED the presidential suit I booked for 2 adults and 3 children. So clean, beds were comfortable, facilities were perfect for a young family. Our hosts Ric and Tina were absolutely amazing and went over and above to service us. They offered beach towels for outings, washing and drying services and daily cleans. Can't recommend this place enough! 20/10!

We stayed here for two nights before and after walking the Abel Tasman Track. The welcome from the receptionist on the 15th March was very professional and polite. We had a King Studio on the 5th floor for our first stay which was clean and spacious. If you are short it would be difficult to reach some of the kitchen items on the top shelf. The central location was brilliant as we could walk to all the shops, galleries, gardens and cafes. Fresh Choice supermarket is just down the road. Kitchen is well-equipped. Great to have a washer/dryer to wash all tramping clothes after the walk. Our second stay was in a second floor room which did not have such a good view but was still excellent. We did not hear any other guest noise in either stay apart from occasional doors shutting. Outside noise is obliterated when the windows are closed - this noise was minimal anyway. House keeping staff were polite and friendly. Definitely recommended. The baggage storage facility was great for when we did the Abel Tasman Walk. Reception staff were very helpful. We felt very relaxed and comfortable in the apartment.

I really wanted to give this place a 4 star, but the location of a wedding party opposite my room and the surprising lack of breakfast ( just a box of weetabix and some cookies) made it a little disappointing for me….. That’s a shame as the hotel/pub is a nice place., tranquil (when there is no wedding), a few meters from a great walking path along the coast towards Nelson or Richmond and with a fine pub with good food all on site. The staff are friendly, rooms are clean (if starting to look a little tired) and have most things you could need, even a spa bath! If I was here again however I would investigate the newer and better looking hotel over the road…..

Hotel location is convenient, walk to the main street of the city 7-8 minutes. The kitchen and bathroom facilities are complete, and the separate kitchen is suitable for those who like to cook their own meals. If you bring a child, you will have to pay for the child. Filling out the child information when booking a room automatically calculates the room rate and automatically assigns the appropriate room. If you temporarily increase your child's stay, you will need to add a child's room rate. This is a motel with plenty of parking.

Great location, Staff were lovely, place was dated but tidy. Dinner Restaurant is still closed due to covid. The main reason for the down review is I had booked with a voucher for the first night that included breakfast. I asked for 2 more nights and expected breakfast. When I checked in, I validated it was but when we checked out was told not the case so we paid $69 (2 pax) per day for an avg breakfast that had we known we would have gone elsewhere and paid less. Mgr on duty would not budge or even apologise. Disappointed as I would have rated much higher
