Staff were terrific and supportive throughout the stay. Quality of the place was above many other places we stayed. Location in downtown Nelson was great - we felt like we were at home! Lots more to explore, and looking forward to coming back!
Parking was a bit difficult, but otherwise, all good!

Lovely Inn in a Fabulous Town
The Cloudside Hotel check-in process was a breeze, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The room and bathroom were exceptionally clean, and the bed was comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay and the back deck patio. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are in town.
