The Beachcomber Hotel

Hotels in Tahunanui,Nelson

GGuest User 2025.03.31

The location of room and of hotel was great. Was able to park our car right outside room. Pool was a surprise, warm and great pool area. Only down side was a mistake by the staff who entered our room in the morning when we were still in the room, but we received an apology for this. Would definitely recommend it to family/friends.

We were very impressed at how well appointed the room was. Great facilities. We had come to see a show at a theatre a 5 min walk from the Motor Lodge so the location was a dream. Staff were very friendly & accomodating. We will be back & highly recommend. The price was brilliant too.

Clean and good location. Just by the beach. Strong sense of service. Before we checked in, the boss had turned on the heating and was very intimate. There is parking space. The bathroom equipment is a bit old, but it does not affect the living.

Tasman Bay Backpackers

A relatively large youth hostel with complete living facilities, but no private bathroom (Ctrip compensated for this). Free feijoa tasting is provided. However, the power supply is not at the bedside, and the parking lot is a bit cramped. Overall, it is cost-effective.
