Tides Hotel Bar & Eatery

My husband and I had a great stay here.nnGreat location and the restaurant is nicely located and food surprisingly tasty.nnI highly recommend asking for a river side room though. We were on the river side and it was wonderful and calm and pretty view but our friends who were in a down stairs room on the car park side didn't have it as good- louder and much less private and a car park view.

Excellent rooms and bar and restaurant in the hotel. Visiting here with my daughter and so far she has been IMPRESSED Happy mum, happy daughter Service was warm and welcoming at the restaurant - the Pork ribs and kids platter was tasty and had big portion sizes. Would definitely recommend for families!

This is a real gem of a find and is one, if not the, best hotel in Nelson city by a big margin. By default this means it's one of or the best hotel in all of south island too. Staff are courteous, professional, kind and efficient. Hotel is spotlessly clean and has a trendy, modern feel throughout. There are guest laundries on every floor - which is a brilliant idea given the outdoorsy lifestyle in New Zealand. There is a fresh ground coffee and cafetaire in each room too. All in all a fantastic find.

This review is about the restaurant.nnI visited in February for lunch with 3 business associates. All the items we had were well presented and delicious. The service was quick and courteous. We sat outside beside the river and the breeze was just perfect.nnMy vegetarian dish - the warm cauliflower salad - was excellent.nnI would happily dine here again.

Great little hotel perfectly situated for our one quick overnight, right across from where the InterCity bus dropped us off and picked us up. Fun quirky room details a bonus on top of basics like comfy beds and clean bathroom. Extras in room were fresh milk and cold spring water! Nice touch. Loved the colour scheme and splashes of art! Hallway looked to be in middle of being renovated half painted walls and wires hanging down, so once done that will be an improvement. Overall recommend for a nice place to stay!
