I wanted to take my small dog on a night away. There’s not many dog friendly motels available. This was adequate and we enjoyed our night out

Great stay in an excellent location. Had everything we needed, clean and tidy, and friendly and helpful staff.
Had the best information folder I've seen anywhere; clearly laid out and easy to read. Especially liked how it showed how far places were from the motel.

I arrived early before scheduled check in time. It was a $30NZ taxi ride from the Nelson Airport. The gentleman at reception ( John ?) allowed me to store my backpack there, and also issued me my room key so I could go directly to the room which was to be available an hour later. He also took the time to point out the many galleries, walks, food markets/restaurants on an area map available at the reception counter.
The location of the property is just meters from the Collingwood St. bridge over the Waikai river. The location makes everything very easy walking around the CBD Nelson area. The Isite was perhaps a 5 min. travel, as well as the cinema, and several galleries. The food market and manny good restaurants/pubs are all within a 15 min. walk from the room.
The room was simple, but had everything I needed for a comfortable 2 night stay. Electric stovetop, refrigerator, a small dining table, an 2 arm chairs. The bed was comfortable, although I had to remove several pillows and a quilt which were not needed..... it seems this is the trend with most hotels nowadays. Also, the room had an abundance of windows, and a skylight which allowed great natural light, and airflow. I seem to think there was a washing machine available, which I did not need to use, but I may be mistaken .
Overall, I had a great stay, and would recommend staying here if you are seeking a convenient location in Nelson for simple accommodation.

This is an older property. Location is great. So close to everything. We stayed in the family apartment. It was older with some wear and tear but very spacious, clean and comfortable. We liked staying here and would stay again. We loved that they had heated blankets and lots of heaters to combat the cold.

The River Lodge was a nice place to spend 2 nights. It is very close to the river and an easy walk to town. We were near a football stadium and a game was being played so we were able to attend. The manager pointed out a very nice breakfast location which we enjoyed both mornings.

Older motel units. Not a stylish interior but spotlessly clean which to me is main thing. TV very small.
