The hostel had a comfortable and clean 6 bed dorm with a good mattress and locker. The kitchen and toilets were well-maintained. The peaceful garden provided a nice outdoor space. The receptionist, Laura, was kind and helpful.
Nothing it is perfect.

I absolutely loved the warm and inviting ambiance of the hotel's decoration. The cozy sitting areas and beautiful garden made it a perfect place for senior people like myself to relax and unwind. The hotel was easily accessible for us too, with no stairs to climb and wide hallways that were easy to navigate. It truly made me feel right at home.
I would have appreciated more assistance from the staff in planning activities specifically tailored for senior travelers. Though the children working there were friendly, I wish they had provided more information and suggestions on things to do in Nelson that cater to our needs.

I stayed at Almond House for one night and it exceeded my expectations. The cleanliness and comfort were superb, and the flatmates I met were incredible. The kitchen was well-equipped and the staff were lovely. The location in a quiet residential neighborhood was perfect, just a short walk into town. I wish I could have stayed longer and highly recommend this hostel for anyone visiting.
Couldn't recommend this hostel more.

The room was huge, with its own dressing room that could easily fit a bathroom. The kitchen was well-equipped and the washer and dryer were super convenient. The shower was large and powerful. The staff were lovely and the quiet residential neighborhood was just a short walk to town. The room was beautifully decorated, with the softest bedding I've ever experienced. Each bed had its own nightstand lamp and bedside table, and there were plenty of sockets for charging devices. The garden was a nice oasis with outdoor communal areas, a comfy kitchen, and friendly staff. The facilities were laid out well for privacy, with a private enclosed backyard, pizza oven, and bike use. The well-equipped and clean kitchen and relaxing morning coffee in the garden were mind-blowing.

Small, well-equipped kitchen and spacious living area. Reliable wifi. Great communal area for cozying up in bad weather. Recommend nearby Free House. Quiet location, clean rooms, comfy beds, and good showers. Friendly staff and free bikes. Homely feel. Smells nice.

The spacious and well-equipped kitchen was perfect for preparing meals together, and the cozy lounge area provided a great space for family bonding. Our kids absolutely loved the free Wi-Fi, which kept them entertained during downtime between exploring Nelson's amazing attractions. We were grateful for the friendly staff who always made us feel welcome and provided helpful recommendations for family-friendly activities.
My children wanted a play area or a small playground on the premises.

The hostel is located in a lovely and quiet residential neighborhood, just a few minutes walk from town. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped, with a dressing room that could potentially be turned into an en-suite bathroom. The staff is friendly and helpful, and there are convenient facilities such as a washer and dryer.
The WiFi in the room doesn't work very well.

Les studios sont bien équipés avec tout le nécessaire pour un séjour agréable, y compris une salle de bain bien agencée. De plus, le petit-déjeuner est varié et bien fourni, avec un personnel souriant et serviable.
Le spa était en panne et donc non accessible pendant notre séjour.

Comfortable and well-equipped kitchen. The bed was cozy with a reading light, and towels were provided. The location was just right, offering a peaceful atmosphere while still being within walking distance of the city center. Despite the bad weather, the hostel provided helpful suggestions for rainy day activities. I had a great stay at Almond House Backpackers.
