Very nice except for the breakfast.
Great accommodation and lovely pool. I do not recommend the breakfast - extremely expensive for cereal, juice and toast. Otherwise our stay was enjoyable.

Great location, easy walk to restaurants and the beach. Lovely heated pool and outdoor area. Room cleaning hot or miss. We opted to have room cleaning daily (not automatic) and it did not happen every day. Fixtures in room are extra tall (shower shelf, clothes rail in closet, mirror in bathroom). I am an average height woman and had a hard time with this. A full length mirror in room would be nice as well, especially with how high the mirror is in the bathroom.

Really Great Tahunanui Accommodation.
Great location near to Tahunanui beach… Friendly staff willing to help the customers. M/C Biker friendly and plenty of parking areas to leave bike. Reception staff very accommodating and I was easily able to add an extra night when requested… Thank you for my stay in Nelson this was a welcome addition to my NZ Adventure…👍
Plenty of info on p’aces to see.

Lovely staff at check in. A great heated pool, my son loved it! The property must be undergoing some renovations. Our room seemed updated and lovely (king and a single bed). A bit difficult to find entrance and reception, but this will likely change as renovations advance

The clean staff were right outside my room with the trolley in the morning talking loudly about social things and what they had for dinner the night before amongst other chat. I was doing last minute computer work before I had to check out. They should go about their day quietly so that the guests can go about theirs quietly.
