What was the highlight of Rutherford Hotel Nelson - A Heritage Hotel
Wonderful location, immaculately clean
This heritage hotel is in a perfect location close to the centre of town. The room was immaculately clean (and I’m a clean freak when it comes to hotels). Good value for money. Lovely staff. Dinner at Oceano restaurant was wonderful - a very good chef! The only downside was the gym which could use a refresh.
