We spent one night here and can't say we were sorry to leave. The motel was well equiped and had all we needed for a 1 night stay though internet access was too expensive. When the cost of a room is $165 I am of the opinion that internet should be free. Another problem with the palms is its location,... More

Just as you enter Nelson, on the corner of Paru Paru Road, The Palms is ideally placed for the traveller. Directly across the road is a large supermarket and the Motel itself is an excellent choice. The build is new, the rooms nicely decorated, with comfortable beds and spotless linen, and to top it all there is a small pool... More

My first time to Nelson and this place was lovely, very clean with cooking facilities... Pool was smaller than in the picture but still very nice... Had to pay extra for Wi Fi access but was only about $20 for my 4 days... Would recommend to anyone visiting Nelson as it also walking distance from main shipping district.. More

A colleague introduced me to the Palms. Neslon CBD is a square, the Palms is on the NW corner, so you can walk everywhere in town in 20 mins. Motel has a nice pool ( if you get time to be in it), and the accomodation is everything you would expect from a high end NZ motel. I always stroll... More

Well located motel close to the town centre. The place looks like new, service is good and the rooms have everything you can think of. If you come to Nelson, this is a great place to stay - a definite recommendation! More

The Palms in Nelson is our first choice when ever we go to Nelson, it is located across the road from the supermarket and walking distance to the trafaglar centre where the dance competitions are held each year. Approxiamately 10mins from the airport normally only about $20 for a taxi. Walking distance to the town and your choice of restaurants.... More

As a regular business visitor to Nelson I have been using this motel for about 6 years. Rooms have been regularly upgraded, the location is excellent and the staff always welcoming and friendly. As motels go this is definitely 5 Star plus More

We stayed over the Easter Holiday and had a great time. We were touring the south island with our twin 2 yr olds and our 14 yr old niece. The rooms were super spacious and at a great price. The room had a kitchen that was super useful for us. Also a big spa bathtub, that our boys thought was... More

This motel is situated in the main area of town and across the road from an excellent supermarket, but it's quiet and comfortable. Our room was fairly spacious, nicely furnished with a lovely bed and a really good shower, which is not always easy to find. Friendly staff, everything fresh and clean, lots of useful local information on hand. A... More

We stayed one night at the Palms, so we could attend "the Hollies" show, which was at the trafalgar centre, which was a mere 5 min walk away, very handy. The unit we had was a ground floor studio, quite compact, but nicely presented, and well tucked away from the road, so no traffic niose, like our friends who were... More
