We went to go to the arts and craft markets around and were able to find out beforehand when and where these were that made it easy to plan. Having said that there were lots more we didn't know about such as those in Golden Bay area and over Takaka hill. Be warned Takaka hill is more like a mountain of 25km of winding road and a very high climb to drive. But worth it on the other side. Allow plenty of time to explore. The Takaka township was very quaint and worth walking the street. Get a map for the artists trail if you're into that and stop off at artists studios and homes.

Nelson has all you need in a small city during a holiday visit. It has interesting markets each week, cultural exhibitions, lovely town walks, the walk up to 'the Centre of New Zealand' for great views, as well as much more abundant natural beauty within easy reach to explore. You don't really need a car to explore. There are plenty of lovely walks as well as local buses to head to nearby places like Richmond or to the beach. Just note that the buses are much less frequent on weekends. But if you have a car or are prepared for longer bike rides, you can head up the lovely coast road to places like Mapua and Kaiteriteri and beyond. Several bike companies rent bikes and can organise tours. we noted that electric bike travelling was very popular. The local airport makes access to Nelson by plane very easy if that's your preference. In short, a lovely place to holiday for anything from a few days to a few weeks.

My only concern was the main door.
My only concern was the main door. I cannot swear whether I locked it or not. All the accommodations we’ve stayed at have automatic locking. We had settled in. Coffe on table. Unpacked. Dressed to the conditions. Next, the door opens. “OOPs”. Sorry”. That got both our heckles up. Apart from this issue, a wonderful stay. Apologies to David for the bad review. It could have been better. My bad

Lovely place for walking and the outdoors.
Lovely place for walking and the outdoors. If you are interested in gardening or flowers they have beautiful gardens. They have heaps of sports grounds and venues for every kind of activity. Can recommend the Silky Otter Cinema in Richmond for a rainy day, its luxury! Most of the cafes shut or cabinet food only about 2.30pm (which seems to be the norm in NZ now) often traveler's and others need refreshment in the afternoon . Unfortunately during our visit there were road works everywhere. Avoid driving peak hours.

Our Nephew told us to stay at the Saxton and we were not disappointed one bit. The staff, the rooms, the meals were just perfect, we will be back in Nelson again soon, we will not stay anywhere else but the Saxton would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Nelson has a great location, on the sea Coast and backed by forested hills. Lots of good walking. It's reputation for sunshine was ably lived up to. Interesting history and colonial architecture. Also art and gallerys.

Kings Gate Motel
Nelson
From $109 per nightMy father was in Nelson hospital so this hotel was in a good location for visiting but also for being able to get groceries. We were allowed to check in early before going to the hospital so we appreciated that. Due to Covid-19 and our NZ alert level 3 our motel was not able to be serviced. We appreciate that the owners were limited in what they could do for us while we were there. We were grateful that we had somewhere to stay. They were very friendly and helpful. I would recommend staying here any time you need somewhere to stay Nelson.

From $79 per night
Everything! This hotel is really nice & staffs are friendly. We arrived on the last flight from Auckland & they have someone still onsite to help check us in. The room was comfy, gives you the feeling of being in a lawyer's study room. Didn't manage to try the cooked breakfast as we were trying to catch the early Abel Tasman ferry, but the continental brekkie was pretty good. Overall, good place to stay for the night if you arrive on the last flight to Nelson Airport.
