Great Spot to Stay in Nelson

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 30 Jul 2024
Pleasant, spacious, clean, well-located motel with extremely pleasant staff. Had everything I needed and great value for money. Host made one feel very comfortable and welcome. Would definitely stay again if I were to return to Nelson. Worked well as single traveller but would be good for couples too.

Immaculately presented rooms.
Owners went out of their way to make my stay comfortable.
Appreciate the use of a couple of extra car parks during the day.
Close to centre of town.
Appreciated the offer of a cold drink on arrival.
We will definitely be back.

Room tip: Handy to some great mountain bike tracks.

This has always been my number one go to motel with good reason. The owners are fabulous & thoughtful (warm unit when arriving after dark in winter). The folks who looked after the motel in the owner’s absence were just as lovely & accommodating. Super clean & comfortable. Close to town easy walk.

Room tip: Book early!
