Would stay here again

Only complaint is that the walls of the rooms are EXTREMELY thin, so you can hear people's conversations. Other than that, it is a lovely property with very friendly staff and outstanding restaurants. Great central location, wonderful AC, and comfy beds. The shower had hot water for days!! And the spa was delightful!

The only place to stay in Nelson!

We loved our stay at the Hume in Nelson! The hotel is situated in the center of this colorful town. The staff were all super friendly and helpful. Parking was not provided but wasn't a problem as I had anticipated as there is a ramp right next door that is fairly affordable and the hotel comped our parking for 2 nights anyway. Our room was large, comfortable and clean. It's an old hotel in the center of town so anticipated a little street noise, but again this wasn't a problem for us. Everything in the room worked great. We didn't try any of the attached restaurants but it smelled good and the bars looked great. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are in Nelson.

Fantastic property! Exceptional staff, always ready to help. The spa was wonderful. Several dining and beverage options. The Library was fantastic both noghts we dined there and had live jazz music. Breakfast was included and was terrific! Coffee excellent! Room was clean, well maintained and decorated. The barhroom had a full tub and shower. Old hotel that has been lovingly restored/updated. We loved the atmosphere. One block walk to the main shopping street and bars/restaurant options. Nelson ia a beautiful town and the Anglican church was open and was breathtaking! Family owned hotel. We will be back!
