"This top10 holiday park is situated in town which makes it possibly not the most scenic accommodation but very convenient. Staff is always friendly and bathroom and rooms are clean and comfortable."
"If you like a Tuscan vibe, this is the place for you. Great sea front location. I think we hit this hotel in off season and it was super quiet. Situated in a small, residential townhouse community - not sure what amenities are available."
"As a return guest, it was so comforting to see that nothing of the high standards had diminished since my last stay a few years ago. The best and most comfortable bed and lovely courteous and kind staff. Absolutely the best in Nelson. "
"Lovely friendly staff. Perfect location to town, only a 2 minute walk over the bridge to town. Easy route from the airport. Breakfast at the restaurant was good. Will definitely stay here again. "

Nelson City Centre is noteworthy for its shopping, and you can make a stop at top attractions like Nelson Provincial Museum and Christ Church Cathedral.
Browse the local arts and crafts markets, explore the countryside, dine on freshly caught seafood or find a spot overlooking the bay and sip a local wine.
The Nelson Classic Car Museum is great for gearheads. I should have booked an extra day to explore the Tasman Bay a bit more, but there's always next time.

Nelson served as a base to visit the Abel Tasmin National Park - plenty of supermarkets, fuel stations, etc. - otherwise unremarkable. Busy traffic on the road east until you clear Richmond. We were a short walk from the beach/shoreline - nice.

"The Sails Nelson was absolutely amazing. Not only is the location central and within a quick walk to local cafes, restaurants, and the city centre; but the staff are super friendly, accomodating, and helpful. If I could give the Sails Nelson more then 5 stars, I most definitely would!"
