My stay at Admirals Motor Inn in Nelson was truly exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with genuine hospitality by Fraser and Kelly, whose warmth and attentiveness made all the difference. Their dedication to creating a safe, inviting, and family-friendly environment ensures that every guest, whether traveling alone or with whānau, feels at home. The accommodation itself exceeded expectations: immaculate, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained to the highest standards. It’s more than just a place to stay, it’s a retreat where guests can unwind in a clean and beautifully kept space. I wholeheartedly recommend Admirals Motor Inn to anyone seeking quality accommodation in Nelson. My gratitude goes to Fraser and Kelly for their outstanding service and commitment to making every guest’s experience truly special.

The property was great, laundry available, cooking facilities in room. Large room, Big windows, friendly owner who was very helpful, kind and witty. Really comfy room and bed. Serviced daily. Plenty of parking. Very Close to township to walk and explore. Lovely big park next door for picnic. It was a really happy stay and quite even though its on a busy road. Book through the owner as he is lovely to talk to and it will ensure all money goes to his family. We loved it.
