Location

    Situated only 6 minutes' walk from the regional Nelson Provincial Museum, the comfortable The Palace Backpackers Nelson hostel offers guests to relax on a sunbathing terrace. Located in the vicinity of the botanical park "Queen's Gardens", this Nelson hostel provides guests with private parking.

    Found approximately 2 km from the short Founders Heritage Park, the hostel is 750 metres from worship locations like the hilltop Christ Church Cathedral. In addition, Natureland Wildlife Trust can be found around 10 minutes' drive from the property. Also, visiting Tahunanui Beach Playground, which is 2.6 km from the 32-room The Palace Backpackers hostel, can be great fun for the whole family.

    A buffet breakfast is available every morning at the Nelson accommodation. You can enjoy evenings in the outdoor bar. For dinner, guests have the option of dining at Wafu Bistro, located not far from The Palace Backpackers hostel, or at Cod & Lobster Brasserie, situated 0.6 km away. There is a shared kitchen at the Nelson hostel. Nelson airport is 5 km from this hostel, and Selwyn Place at McDonalds bus stop is merely 5 minutes' walk away.

    Review by hotel critic

    As an environmental scientist focused on sustainable travel, I am delighted to share my exceptional experience at The Palace Backpackers. The vintage house exuded character, with no bunk beds in the dorms and ample storage space. The shared kitchen was a hub of communal cooking, fostering a sense of community among guests. The garden furniture and terrace offered serene spots to relax and enjoy the stunning hilltop views, contributing to a truly magical atmosphere. The proximity to a variety of dining options within walking distance added convenience to the stay, highlighting the hostel's thoughtful location. My stay was not only comfortable but also enriched by the unique, artistic decor and the welcoming staff, making The Palace Backpackers a standout choice for conscious travelers seeking warmth and charm in Nelson City.
