Accents on the Park

We are Nelson's 5 Star, Qualmark Rated Hostel, offering a refreshing alternative to the usual Hotel and Motel offerings. Not just for backpackers we have a large range of shared and private rooms (Singles, Twins, Doubles and Queen Bed rooms) some with En suite bathrooms.

Our guests rate us as the best in Nelson and we hope our warm friendly welcome and our clean comfortable surroundings will bring you back again and again.

Located in the heart of town and overlooking the beautiful Cathedral park and Gardens we are close to everything Nelson is famous for and walking distance to most.

Owned and operated by Linda & Royce who bring their own attentive, caring style to make your visit and your Nelson experience a special memory.
