Nelson Hotels with Hot Tub

We booked a family room with 3 bedrooms for 3 couples and 2 kids. The kitchen was quite small for a 3 bedroom family room and one of the rooms was quite small - not even enough space to open suitcases. It was cold and we found that the smallest room’s electric blanket wasn’t plugged in. To top it off there wasn’t a power outlet in the room either. Went to call reception but the phone wasn’t connected to the phone point either. Had to move the furniture to connect the phone and reception staff said the house keeping staff will look into it. I told them no one can add a power point in the room now and they said we can give you an extension cord and try and find an extra heater!!! We were traveling with parents and little kids - extension cord wasn’t an ideal solution. Went up to the reception and at one point the receptionist (who was in training) said she can give us our money back and we can leave. Where were we going to go at night with the whole family??? Eventually to resolve the issue they offered us 3 separate rooms upstairs, at least they had working heating. Next morning while trying to heat up some food, we found the microwave in one of the rooms wasn’t plugged in and there was no outlet for it either!!! Hopefully the hotel invests in making sure their appliances work and have outlets to plug them in. And provide better training to staff so they don’t put the responsibility/shift the blame on each other (reception putting it on house keeping and vice versa).

Loved this motel!. I booked really late in the evening and the lovely owner was so welcoming despite turning up out of office hours!. Room was perfect, bed comfortable. Well thought out room. Privacy. Enjoyed the quiet, away from the road. Happy to recommend

Hotel location is convenient, walk to the main street of the city 7-8 minutes. The kitchen and bathroom facilities are complete, and the separate kitchen is suitable for those who like to cook their own meals. If you bring a child, you will have to pay for the child. Filling out the child information when booking a room automatically calculates the room rate and automatically assigns the appropriate room. If you temporarily increase your child's stay, you will need to add a child's room rate. This is a motel with plenty of parking.

It is very convenient to take the children to travel, the reception is very warm, the location is very good, it is convenient to go anywhere, and it is very quiet.

This was our second time staying here, and it was just as good as we previously found it. It’s clean and modern, with a very good standard of fit out and furnishings. It’s quiet, and with a very comfortable bed meant we had a couple of good nights sleep. It’s an easy 10 minute stroll to the centre of town and restaurants. We’ll be back for a third stay in the future.

The hotel is well located near the city center, within walking distance to the downtown commercial street and restaurants, supermarkets and the beautiful Nelson Cathedral. The rooms are spacious and clean with complete facilities.

Very clean motels, located within easy walking distance to the beach, shops, plus many food outlets. The hosts are incredibly friendly and obliging - our team made very good use of the heated swimming pool, plus the bbq facilities. We have stayed here many times and have never been disappointed.

Excellent service right from booking to stay. We had a family group of seven adults and Robyn organised two side by side units which perfectly suited our situation. All admin staff very friendly and helpful. The units were extremely clean and well appointed for our needs. With a supermarket across the road and a walk of ten minutes into town this was a great position. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

I had the good fortune to spend four nights at Riverlodge Motel. The room was so clean, comfortable and well maintained and owners Edie and Jon were so pleasant and helpful that I'm more than happy to recommend this motel to anyone considering staying in Nelson. As a bonus, the location is only a short walk from the central city and all it offers.

Good location but not right on the beach - 10 minutes walk away and all amenities are also a fair distance away so my elderly inlaws had to be driven everywhere, with nothing within their walking distance. Rooms are dated but reasonably well equipped. Parking spaces are small, designed for small cars, not the huge SUVs and trucks that we all wallow around in now. Host David and his team are great, and go out of their way to help. High-speed WiFi, hundreds of Sky channels, outdoor table and a BBQ area made for a great stay. Warm and friendly holiday accommodation - recommended.
