10/10 Excellent
"Quest hotels are always good, but Nelson is incredible, freshly renovated, central to shopping and dining, easy parking. Great for travelling with babies, the rooms are so quiet and dark and the portacot was assembled in our room on arrival Nothing is an issue for the friendly team. Amazing experience "
