Quest hotels are always good, but Nelson is incredible, freshly renovated, central to shopping and dining, easy parking. Great for travelling with babies, the rooms are so quiet and dark and the portacot was assembled in our room on arrival Nothing is an issue for the friendly team. Amazing experience

Property was close to most amenities. Would suggest parking be included in the pricing. Also thought the bathroom should be closer to the bedroom, like an ensuite. Overrall, another good stay at the Quest apartments. Thank you.

This is a good hotel, with excellent staff, who were very helpful. we were also able to keep e bikes in a storeroom controlled by the on duty manager. Which was excellent. However the TV system in the rooms is pretty hopeless. Half a dozen terrestrial stations basically No Sky, Netflix etc..Needs an upgrade !
