We stayed for a few days and couldn’t be happier with our accommodation at Sails. The room was full of everything we needed, even herbal teas and coffee machine - real milk each day too. It was convenient to shops and restaurants and the the owners were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend

Excellent property! Staff were so friendly, room was absolutely spotless. We especially loved the breakfast room service which was quite a treat! The massive tv was so nice to have to watch a movie in bed after a long day. Really impressed by how well stocked the kitchen was. I liked the added touch of the milk bottle in the fridge instead of the long life milk you normally find. Definitely would recommend staying here, great location and good parking.

Cherie Was absolutely wonderful and had great communications when our flight canceled and we were a day late checking in. She helped us out so much. The rooms were amongst the cleanest I’ve ever seen. They looked brand new. I would recommend this place to anyone staying in Nelson.

This is a great location if you're visiting Nelson. Fairly central so you can eat in or out in town. The small kitchen facility works perfectly and there is a small balcony to sit out on when the sun is shining, Beds are very comfortable and rooms quiet. I was doing the 3 day Abel Tasman walk and they stored my bags while I was trekking. Would stay again and highly recommend.

A 5 star modern beautifully appointed hotel. Super well placed close to everything. Host was extremely helpful with recommendations for some lovely restaurants. We stayed in a wheelchair access room and I would highly recommend for anyone who needs an accessibility room. Highly recommend

The Sails Nelson was a great place to stay. Convenient location for exploring, close to everything, clean, comfortable, and we loved the corner spa to relax our muscles after doing some adventuring. Thank you!

Had a wonderful stay! The room was very lovely, comfortable, and clean. The woman at the front desk was friendly and helpful. And we were a 15 min walk into city center, 30 min walk to the center of NZ, and 50 min walk to the beach when we were feeling very ambitious. Would definitely stay again.
