This is an old historic hotel. It does not have parking so you have to park at a public structure a block away. They do not have a Bell stand to help you unload your bags.
With that said, it is a cool property and a good experience with a fantastic staff, a great pub and restaurant right in the middle of downtown Nelson, which is a fantastic city.
