Stayed in a 1 bedroom. The queen bed was in the lounge and the curtains let a lot of light through. But for the price, very satisfied. Would stay again for sure.

It was a little hard to find the office as it is set back from the street, but once we did, we were met by the most gracious staff. Appreciated that we had an assigned parking spot for our room. Hotel was quiet and has a dedicated restaurant on site. Very convenient for our stay in Nelson.
