Loved the friendly people, very creative and arty outlets, and artists, lovely eateries and markets, lots to do and see. We unfortunately got caught in the bad weather and were stranded for two more days - would have been great, but too wet and flooded to do anything else. Not Nelson's fault though! - We will be back to pick up where we left off!Guest review byJoNew Zealand - 8.0

Lots to do - walking on the beach, visiting Pic's Peanut Butter Factory, Natureland Zoo, shopping, eating, the Saturday Market . . . Very impressed with the bus service and friendly bus drivers.Guest review byJillNew Zealand - 10.0
Lots of great restaurants, some with water views.
Lots of great restaurants, some with water views. Beautiful gardens (Japanese, botanic, chinese). Assessible to wineries and outdoor activities. Bike hire at airport (Nelson Cycle Hire) was excellent to enjoy some of the Great Taste Trail with amazing scenery. Pic's Peanut factory tour really good.Guest review byAndraeNew Zealand - 10.0
A beautiful city. Lots of lovely trees
A beautiful city. Lots of lovely trees The city centre was lovely even in the pouring rain. Great bus service. We obtained a Bee card and used mostly off peak so very economical. Lovely buildings, parks, museums to visit, and of course the cathedral. The Saturday market was great. Great beach and waterfront, lots of short walks in city(Paddy's Knob, Centre of NZ) Also a good base to head off to walk Abel TasmanGuest review byRoss - 8.0

Relatively easy to get around with the center of the city accessible, although the road out of Nelson to the south west seemed to be prone to traffic jams; I like the plentiful cycle ways separate from the road although I can no longer use themGuest review byJonathanNew Zealand

- Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.4Superb - What previous guests thought, 72 reviewsThere is probably no accommodation in Nelson with a more beautiful view of Tasman Bay, and it is the perfect starting point for exploring the Abel Tasman National Park. The accommodation is equipped with everything you need for a short or long trip through New Zealand.Guest review byDanielGermany
