Top The Wood Hotel Reviews

Admirals Motor Inn

6/10 Okay

"While our room, number 7, was well equipped, it looked out onto a close wall so that in wintertime there was no sun, meaning the room was freezing and dark. Although there was a wall panel heater it was in no way sufficient, so for our second night we asked for and received another heater which alleviated the situation. Other than the kitchen the room had been fully refurbished and would have been very nice had it been in a different part of the motel."

The Hotel Nelson

8/10 Good

"The room with a separate, well equipped kitchenette, was clean and well presented. Could do with updating, particularly the bathroom, but would certainly stay there again. Check in was easy and staff were pleasant and helpful. The food at Flames Restaurant, which was on site, was excellent and the meals were large. Good service as well. Great location close to town with onsite parking."

The Sails Nelson

10/10 Excellent

"Loved staying here at The Sails !! Comfy bed , great shower, lots of fresh airflow , cosy as in the chilly evening, big TV with satellite viewing , good coffee with either plunger or pod, fresh milk, well stocked kitchen for in- home style cooking . Free laundry facilities . Close to cbd and pretty much everything/ everywhere you'd need . Definitely recommend to travellers wanting value for money and comfort ."
