YHA Nelson - Backpackers

YHA Nelson - Backpackers

📍 59 Rutherford Street, Nelson
★★ 8.2 (27 reviews)

"I was honestly disappointed at this hostel. The room smelled bad and the bed was uncomfortable, not enough many showers and toilets, shower pressure was bad and you could hear everything through the walls. Also it was cold in the room (there was a heater but it was very old and smelled like burned). Also definitely not the most social hostel. During my stay there was some sort of school groups taking over the common kitchen areas for their meetings and meals even though we are all paying to use any kitchen we want. Wifi was a joke. Only good thing was the good location in the center."

Palazzo Motor Lodge

Palazzo Motor Lodge

📍 Centre 159 Rutherford Street, Nelson
★★★ 9.6 (105 reviews)

"We were very impressed at how well appointed the room was. Great facilities. We had come to see a show at a theatre a 5 min walk from the Motor Lodge so the location was a dream. Staff were very friendly & accomodating. We will be back & highly recommend. The price was brilliant too."

Supermarket nearby and easy walk around Nelson. Close to activities and easy driving distance to key attractions."

ASURE Fountain Resort Motel Hotels in Nelson

ASURE Fountain Resort Motel

"We stayed here on our way home from the South Island. The owner - Cobber was a lovely man and supplied us with a heater after we told him the heating in our unit wasnt working. The fan heater was not great but we werent too worried as we werent there long. The worst part of our stay was that the motel is in a suburban street and right across the road were 2 dogs behind a high gate. The dogs barked constantly at every single thing that moved or walked past their property. They were large and loud and acted like guard dogs, and it really was extremely annoying. This older motel is very typical of the dated tired motels that could really do with a modern makeover. Price was $170/night."

Apex Motorlodge Hotels in Nelson

Apex Motorlodge

"Fully equipped and clean environment. Convenient location. Going out for five minutes to walk to McDonald's, the oil station is also near the motel intersection."
