Rutherford Hotel Nelson - A Heritage Hotel

The 4-star Rutherford Hotel Nelson - A Heritage Hotel is nestled near a shopping district, nearly a 5-minute walk from the regional Nelson Provincial Museum. A sky bar as well as a sauna, a sundeck, and a golf course can be enjoyed at the hotel, boasting the setting in close proximity to The Nelson Market.

The free museum "Suter Art Gallery" is located only 1 km from this Nelson hotel while the botanical park "Queen's Gardens" is merely 1.1 km away. A wonderful neighbourhood, where the Rutherford Nelson sits, grants access to cultural attractions like World of Wearable Art & Classic Car Museum, which is approximately 10 minutes' drive away. Guests might as well enjoy proximity to Fairfield Park, situated around 800 metres away. There is Natureland Wildlife Trust about 15 minutes away by car, and Nelson Travel Centre bus station is a stone's throw from the property. For those travelling from afar, Nelson airport is 20 minutes' drive away.

Appointed with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and a direct dial telephone, the stylish rooms at the Rutherford have private bathrooms and separate bedrooms. The private bathrooms offer a separate toilet and a shower/bath combination. These spacious rooms overlook the city.
