    We left it quite late to book accommodation but in the end it worked out really well to have 3 different locations. We did so much in our 9 days, especially considering the weather wasn't always the best. A highlight in the city was the walk up the 'centre of NZ' and also the Myazu Japanese gardens. We can absolutely recommend Kimchi & Wasabi in Trafalgar Street - the best lunch we have had since Melbourne. Also Taaj Indian in Tahunanui Drive - really good food. Get the honey cauliflower.

    Nelson was a delight to visit rain or shine.

    Nelson was a delight to visit rain or shine. Plenty to see if wet and even more when the weather is fine. The city centre is vibrant and an excellent selection of cafes, restaurants and bars. 8 Plates and Hopgoods are excellent restaurants.

    We loved Nelson!

    We loved Nelson! The climate is great, awesome vibe in the city centre. Tahunanui Beach is wonderful for bathing, beachcombing or any other water activities. Mapua is a must visit, gateway to Golden Bay and Abel Tasman National Park. Eat at Lambrettas for a good coffee/drink cafe experience. Lots of beautiful evening restaurants down Trafalgar Street. Saturday Market has so much to see and buy.

    We had an amazing girls' weekend in Nelson!

    We had an amazing girls' weekend in Nelson! The Saturday markets were a highlight, with a fantastic selection of local crafts, fresh produce, and delicious food. The town itself has lovely shops, restaurants, and cafes. While the weather was a bit touch-and-go, the beaches looked incredible and would be ideal for sunny days. For indoor activities, we really enjoyed the local museum, especially the dinosaur exhibit, and the Suter Art Gallery with its beautiful contemporary artworks. Nelson is a wonderful spot with plenty to offer, rain or shine!

    I had a room with a balcony overlooking the river - with a partial view of the hills behind Nelson also. It was a soothing and quiet place. I enjoyed watching the dramatic tidal range. The hotel is also very close to downtown Nelson.

    It looked attractive from the outside but the inside was amazing. Stylish and elegant and extremely comfortable the room was worthy of a 5 star hotel. The facilities were great, clean and modern.
