"Even without a car, it was a good experience. The room had cooking facilities, and the bed was comfortable. The shared restrooms and showers were very clean, with music playing constantly while showering, and plenty of hot water. It's also very close to a large supermarket and the city center."

Tides Hotel

Tides Hotel ★★★★

📍 66 Trafalgar Street, The Wood, Nelson

"The hotel restaurant is great, lovely food all day. Deserts in the afternoon on the terrace with soaking up the sun in their comfy Beach chairs was a highlight. The hotel deco is funky and refreshingly arty! The pool could do with an upgrade, some greenery, and extended art be nice. All in all a great hotel roth lovely friendly service."

"Brilliant place, very big room with a kitchen as well. Absolutely great after hours service as well. We arrived late and told the hotel before and the reception still came out of the back room to help us and recommended us with great spots to go visit and great dinner places as well. Had too short a stay at this place, will definitely come back for a longer visit. They even have a bathtub!!"

The Hotel Nelson ★★★★
"We didnt realise we could have requested a groud floor bedroom. It was tough as an 80 year old lugging three cases and various other items up the stairs. I looked for a lift but couldnt find one. Otherwise apart from the inside of the bathroom door which needs some attention it was ok."

YHA Nelson - Backpackers ★★
"Staff were friendly and helpful. Location is very convenient. Facilities are good. I did however have a cluster of ants in my room. They were swiftly dealt with by staff within about 5 minutes after reporting. I was grateful for being able to leave luggage prior to check in but a bit disappointed i had to pay 2 nzd to store luggage in a locked on departure for about 90 to 120 minutes. I can understand charges for longer periods of left luggage on check out, but under 2 hours seemed a bit unfortunate. However i would still recommend the YHA for others, although if you want a more "party" type hostel, this isn't it."
