Joya Garden & Villa Studios, hotel in Nelson

Joya Garden & Villa Studios in Nelson provides accommodations with a garden and a terrace. This guest house offers free private parking, daily room service, and free Wifi.

I had my heart set on Joya Garden cottage the moment I saw it, and it did not disappoint. Everything about it was picture-perfect; Paulina decorated the place beautifully; it had everything we needed and more. The location was secluded yet within walking distance from the town centre. Paulina was a wonderful host and made us feel at home; we would definitely book again should we ever come to Nelson. Thank you

Maitai Whare Iti - Adventure Cabins & House, hotel in Nelson

Located in Nelson, 4.6 miles from Christ Church Cathedral, Maitai Whare Iti - Adventure Cabins & House has accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

Lush surroundings: the tiny cabins are set back into the forest. You sleep in total darkness and quiet. You awaken to bird song. There’s a hike right from the cabin, and owner Mark is full of good advice of 1,000 other things to do in the region. It’s a relaxed place with a shared kitchen kept neat and tidy and well-equipped. We were there as a couple and enjoyed meeting other travellers, but the place can also be booked for big groups which would be excellent for mountain biking enthusiasts and others. The climb up to the platform bed is pretty steep but the bed was cozy and firm and comfortable.

If you want to get out of the city and have a quiet stay this is the place for you. We could only hear the fast water in the river to put us to sleep and the sheep talking to each other.

    Private rooms are clean and cozy. Great location and great pub. Initially I was a bit worried it might be a bit noisy overnight with the pub downstairs but everything quietens down early. It is a perfect blend of good vibes and a nice peaceful place to sleep. Well priced and the staff are awesome.

    The view, the view, the view. We were in the studio at the top of the garden and it was quiet and private and beautiful. It is a good walk up to get there but fortunately we both really like walking anyway. I nearly cancelled this accomodation because of some of the reviews and I would have missed out on a great opportunity. Thanks David for being a great host.
