Not much to add to the other reviews. The B and B is up a hill near the Cathedral but not a long walk into town. Impressively, they have a lift to take your luggage upstairs if you are traveling with a bunch of stuff. The breakfasts are amazing and cookied to order - you can have anything from a... More

I stayed at the Cathedral Inn in November 2011 with my husband and my brother who was visiting us from the UK. We were all unanimous that Sally and Neville were the kindest hosts imaginable and that Neville's breakfasts were the best we had on our 3 week trip around New Zealand. The rooms are also beautifully appointed and the... More

We stayed here for a long weekend and really enjoyed our stay. It's such a great location, right behind the cathedral and close to all the shops, markets, restaurants and bars. The room was really lovely and quiet and the home itself is so beautiful. The highlight for us were the breakfasts served in the grand old dining room. Neville... More

Staying at the Cathedral Inn was the perfect relaxation vacation. The home is beautiful and peaceful, but only a few steps from the heart of Nelson. The luxury of walking to excellent restaurants, pubs, cafe's and shops gave it the ideal location. The morning breakfasts were generous and delicious. In addition to the quiet garden and parlour, the guest kitchen... More

Location great- easy foot access to a relaxed and interesting town centre. Sally and Neville have a great site here. Room great. Breakfast terrific. Our hosts could not have been better- helpful without being everywhere all the time. Lovely lounge and communal facilities- on both floors. Safe parking. Beuatiful gardens. More

The Cathedral Inn is no more than a 5 minute walk from the centre of Nelson, yet it is so peaceful most of the time that all we heard were the birds (being from Auckland, we were very excited to hear a morepork one night!) The walk itself is along paths through the beautiful grounds of Nelson Cathedral, and we... More

I would definitely recommend this B&B. Your hosts Sally and Neville will go out of their way to ensure your stay in town is perfect. They gave us fantastic restaurant recommendations, cooked amazing hearty breakfasts. You couldn't ask for more. It is a beautiful property, in one of the best locations in town, just a short 2 minute stroll to... More

Beautiful restoration; comfortable, quiet, spacious and well-furnished rooms; generous and hospitable hosts ready to solve problems, answer questions and share a yarn or two; evening aperitif and continuous coffee and bikkies - plus a killer breakfast. Home away from home. Only better. More
