The hotel is small, renovated and close to restaurants and cafes. The room, number 16 is large and suited us for a three night stay. We felt very comfortable. However it was an upstairs room. I wouldn’t recommend the lower rooms facing the public carpark due to a lack of privacy curtains.
The hotel is still in the process of being renovated but with a few finishing touches, it will be great.
It was also very good to be able to use the laundry. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful.

This is a nice place set back from the road. The manager was extremely friendly and helpful, the room had nice comfortable facilities and was very well set out. There was a lovely skylight in the bathroom. Close to the attractions of Nelson yet not noisy.

Wow what a beautiful stay for us. The cottage was amazing, full of unique treasures, Mark & John the perfect hosts. I say this was the best accommodation we have ever stayed in. 🙂

From the moment we checked in to the time we checked out we could not fault any part of our stay. We booked two rooms for a party of four, one of which has mobility issues. We were accommodated to the fullest but were also given rooms next to each other and close to the entrance of the hotel which seems like a small thing but actual meant a great deal. The rooms were clean and warm and had everything we needed for our stay. The location is pretty great too - 5 minutes walk away from Tahunanui...

We had the family 2 bedroom unit which was a great size, had everything we needed and more. We were glad of the AC as it was a warm day and the spa bath was a bonus too

We have stayed there twice now and the quality comfort cleanliness and pleasant staff are consistent.. All the important things are there but more importantly there is no skimping on the little stuff .... a vast array of teas and coffees including plunger grounds, laundry powder, laundry facilities in the unit,heated bathroom floor, big bed and the usual welcoming smile

This is a nice, clean and well-maintained motel. It is well positioned, close to the beach. The owner was very friendly and helpful. He gave us an excellent explanation about all of the attractions around the area with recommendations for what to do and where to eat. We will stay there again when we are in Nelson.

Our stay at Saxton Lodge couldn't be better. The managers David & Desma were wonderful, always present, extremely helpful and very accommodating - the ultimate "good sort".
Rooms are large, well equipped with decent bathroom/showers, heat pump/air conditioning, glass double glazed to prevent noise from the main road, rooms in general were very quiet, you couldn't hear any noise from adjoining rooms or the road when windows are closed (or you can open them up for fresh air which would be great...

After driving from Picton in the heavy rain it was nice to arrive at my Nelson motel. Check in was fast and it was great to unpack in my comfortable room. The next morning was sunny and I did the PIC’S Peanut butter factory tour at 10am. This is only a 10 minute drive from the motel and free, but must be booked online beforehand. After the tour I went next door to Pomeroys for a coffee and bought some of their Cranberry and Carot Tea before driving to Westport.
