Really Great Tahunanui Accommodation.
Great location near to Tahunanui beach… Friendly staff willing to help the customers. M/C Biker friendly and plenty of parking areas to leave bike. Reception staff very accommodating and I was easily able to add an extra night when requested… Thank you for my stay in Nelson this was a welcome addition to my NZ Adventure…👍
Plenty of info on p’aces to see.

Lovely staff at check in. A great heated pool, my son loved it! The property must be undergoing some renovations. Our room seemed updated and lovely (king and a single bed). A bit difficult to find entrance and reception, but this will likely change as renovations advance

Mary-Jane

The clean staff were right outside my room with the trolley in the morning talking loudly about social things and what they had for dinner the night before amongst other chat. I was doing last minute computer work before I had to check out. They should go about their day quietly so that the guests can go about theirs quietly.

A very nice hotel located close to Tahunanui Beach. Offered fresh milk with the stay for coffee./tea. Room was well appointed, close to some good food options and was quiet overnight.

One of the worst rooms i have stayed there in, carpet disgusting, no proper sink, having to use an extension by the microwave and tv, very mis fitted room and shower room. They should not use an excuse to say they are renovating, not worth the money paid....even with discount
