Property Description

We offer our guests free unlimited WiFi,
All of our rooms also have an ensuite bathroom,
We, Mike and Nani, own and run this charming and endearing backpackers which operates inside a Heritage-class building that was originally built in 1888.

There is a large car park for those with vehicles and we are happy to accommodate Freedom Campers as well.

We are an easy five-minute stroll to the center of town where, on Saturdays, you can experience the famous Nelson Markets.

Outside of the room you can relax in one of our hammocks in the sunny courtyard, watch a movie in the TV lounge, or enjoy a cold beer with some of our locals in the 'best beer garden in Nelson'.

On that note, how can we forget to mention that our Backpackers comes with its very own English-style pub where you can meet the locals, and to encourage interaction we have backpacker prices, just show your room card at the bar! Can't argue with that now can we!

Important: Reception hours: 8am to 9pm, so if you are arriving outside this hours, please contact us prior to the date of arrival.

See you soon!

Quite disappointed with this one. Kitchen is very old and grubby, as was our bathroom, a lot of rubbish in carpark and quite an intimidating atmosphere walking in as there seems to be quite a few long term stays

We spent two nights here and the location was great to explore Nelson. Bed comfy, dorms were not too small. There were no lockers in the dorms. Kitchen was a bit small and the kitchen equipment/utensils weren’t great. The bar was nice and got discounted drinks if you showed your keycard.
