Top Cable Bay Hotel Reviews

Harbourside Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfortable bed. Spacious room,"

Tides Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Had dinner and breakfast. Both Meals very high standard and service was impeccable."

Balmoral Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice and comfortable unit"

Palazzo Motor Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Great location . Rooms are spotless and well presented"

DeLorenzo's Studio Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"close to bus hub"

Beaches Nelson

10/10 Excellent

"Our sunny, upstairs 1 bedroom unit was spacious and clean. The jet bath and kitchenette were great. There appears to be enough parks for each unit. We were within walking distance to a few restuarants and 3 fast food places. The host made us aware of some road noise in the front units. So if you are a light sleep request a quiet room. The unit was exactly like the photos. We would stay here again."

Grand Arden Monaco Nelson

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, bed was comfy. Had a great pub across the road also where I had dinner."

The Sails Nelson

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommend this place, it’s lovely. Well located with clean, comfortable rooms and quality amenities."

The Hotel Nelson

8/10 Good

"While the property is well presented and the rooms and housekeeping very good, the same cannot be said about the staff. The front desk reception staff member spent over 10 minutes on a phone call before acknowledging my presence (and another guest checking in at the same time) and providing the room key. The staff in general around the property seem very ambivalent - customer service is certainly not part of their mantra."
