"Clean and comfortable hotel with good access to Abel Tasman National Park. Not that many dining options in town so best to eat in Nelson before checking in. But solid choice for a hotel in this town"

Verified traveller

Lovely town. Sunday Market was great and worth the visit. Moutere Hills Winery was exceptional for our family lunch. Local Hotel had a courtesy vehicle to get back to motel which was much appreciated. As the walk was too far from town.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Busy, bustling cosmopolitan town with lots of interesting shops and excellent Sunday market. Check out European Bakery for their croissants and Smoking Barrels - interesting selection of burgers. Very family friendly place, loads of playgrounds.

4/5 - Good
