Top Delaware Bay Hotel Reviews

Palazzo Motor Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We only stayed one night at Palazzo Motor Lodge, but we absolutely loved it! Everything was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and very well cared for. The lovely lady who checked us in was an absolute standout. She was incredibly warm, helpful, and genuinely friendly — within minutes it felt more like chatting with someone we’d known for years than checking into a motel. That kind of genuine hospitality makes such a difference, especially when you’re traveling. Our room was quiet, comfortable, and had everything we needed. You can tell a lot of care goes into this place, and we only wish we could have stayed longer. Such a wonderful find in Nelson. We would happily stay at Palazzo again and absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting!"

The Hotel Nelson

10/10 Excellent

"The meals were excellent we had crispy chicken and salad twice it was tht good 👍"

Tides Hotel

8/10 Good

"Friendly team, great service, and a hassle-free stay every time. Definitely my go-to place in town."

Tahuna Beach Holiday Park

8/10 Good

"Great location, clean and tidy units. Public spaces are well maintained. Sometimes the wifi is not so good."

Harbourside Lodge

8/10 Good

"Beautiful view of the harbour and a simple but nice apartment with a king bed and a sitting area with foldout couch. Worked well for 4 people overnight. Breakfast was a nice continental with yogurt, juice, cold cereal w/ many toppings, and toast. It was a very short stay but I would return"

DeLorenzo's Studio Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Exceptionally clean and well appointed , staff great , laundry in apartment great , parking was possibly inadequate as there is not many spaces ."

Chelsea Park Motor Lodge Nelson

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, helpful staff, close to town, everything you need"

Castles Motel and Driftwood Motel

8/10 Good

"My only negative is about privacy in room. There are curtains on the windows of course but the door is pretty much see thru into the room when any light is on at night"

Grand Arden Monaco Nelson

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place, has a villa vibe to it. Easy and smooth checkin. Glad I chose this stay 🙂"
