Top Nelson Hotel Reviews

Prestige Inn Nelson

Prestige Inn Nelson

10/10 Excellent
"We loved this place! We came in for 2 nights before going to Shambhala Music Festival to have a relaxing start to our vacation. Our room had a beautiful view of the water and the park. I would sit our on the patio every morning with coffee to watch the sunrise. Everything was withing a 10-20 minute walk, and if you aren't into walking, the main roads are immediately off the hotel exit, plus the historical trolley car stops a 2 minute walk away. The staff was lovely and gave us lots of info on things to do, how to get around, schedules, etc. The only downside is there is a train that comes through thw city around 6am every morning and they blare the horn. The tracks are right behind the hotel, so it would wake us up, but it is only a few minutes of discomfort, and that isn't the hotel's fault. We will absolutely come back."

"Great hotel but no valet parking and no guest parking. There is street parking “nearby.” An older motel that has been thru various remodels but definitely time to update the floors from the street to the front desk and the hallways in the hotel- very disgusting- carrier is not only old but extremely dirty and luggage pathway worn. Pub Restaurant has excellent service and food however and staff is great and accommodating."
