Top Whangamoa Hotel Reviews

Beaches Nelson

10/10 Excellent

"Just Wonderful"

The Hotel Nelson

8/10 Good

"Great locale"

Bridge Backpackers

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice backyard and perfect location in the town centre"

Tahuna Beach Holiday Park

8/10 Good

"The toilets and showers were clean, the cabin as well. Friendly staff. There was no jug to boil some water and the bed was rather soft and bouncy. Parking available but the carparks were quite narrow."

Palazzo Motor Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We only stayed one night at Palazzo Motor Lodge, but we absolutely loved it! Everything was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and very well cared for. The lovely lady who checked us in was an absolute standout. She was incredibly warm, helpful, and genuinely friendly — within minutes it felt more like chatting with someone we’d known for years than checking into a motel. That kind of genuine hospitality makes such a difference, especially when you’re traveling. Our room was quiet, comfortable, and had everything we needed. You can tell a lot of care goes into this place, and we only wish we could have stayed longer. Such a wonderful find in Nelson. We would happily stay at Palazzo again and absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting!"

Balmoral Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were lovely and helpful, rooms clean and a good size for a family. Short walk to a number of eateries. Laundry available. If you're lucky you'll meet the very smoochy motel cat."

DeLorenzo's Studio Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Exceptionally clean and well appointed , staff great , laundry in apartment great , parking was possibly inadequate as there is not many spaces ."

Chelsea Park Motor Lodge Nelson

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, helpful staff, close to town, everything you need"

Castles Motel and Driftwood Motel

8/10 Good

"My only negative is about privacy in room. There are curtains on the windows of course but the door is pretty much see thru into the room when any light is on at night"
