I had looked up the prices of many hotels in nelson, this being one of the cheapest at $62. It was my friend, myself and my 8 month old baby in a room with two queen beds. For the price it was pretty much what I expected. One of the above reviews complained about the iron mark and the patch... More

The North Shore Inn, although it's an older place, fulfilled all our needs perfectly. We were in Nelson for a wedding and fhe only time we were there was to sleep, we weren't looking for a resort. It was affordable, clean and surprisingly quiet even though it was right beside the road. The blackout drapes were a great touch, as... More

For the price, this is a good option for a short stay. We stayed for one night on our travels and while it is a bit dated, the room does have a fridge and microwave. There is no coffee maker but there is a small continental breakfast with coffee, juice, toast, bagels etc.

Located on the north shore as the name states is a across the bridge and a quite bit of a walk from downtown amenities so if you dont have a car might be best to stay closer to town, Older motel however there is a free continental breakfast and free guest computer to use. comfy rooms but older

Room was good size and clean, beds were comfortable. Bathroom was functional and really clean. I would say that the fixtures could be updated, but they were clean and consistent with the price paid for the hotel. Lakeview from the room was beautiful. Wireless internet was good enough, Free parking and a free continental breakfast was not bad but limmited... More

as soon as we entered the inn we knew what we were expecting, cheap, and hasn't been updated since like 1970....the bed was awful, hard as a rock. multiple dead and alive bugs in the room, pictures on web site are deceiving, the view is horrible, the continental breakfast was a joke, consisting of 3 loaves of bread a toaster...

We stayed at the North Shore Inn in Nelson, BC on the first August weekend in 2009 for a family reunion. As soon as I walked into the lobby I knew it was old. The decor was 1980-ish. We checked in and did the normal authorization with my credit card. I entered my pin number for my credit card and... More

I chose the North Shore Inn because it was listed in the Rough Guide, and Nelson was where I ended up after a day of driving across the lake country on my way up to the Rocky Mountains. The hotel is about 10 minutes drive from the town of Nelson, on highway 3A, which goes up to the ferry across... More

Good sized room with balcony overlooking lake, but disappointed no tea/coffee making facilities in room - had to wait until 7.30am breakfast for drink. Continental breakfast included but little choice of food and eating area in reception area only - no dining room. Reception staff polite and helpful when around.

Our family is from Lethbridge AB. And we decided to come up to BC for a weekend of skiing. Nelson was the destination we had in mind. After calling around we chose the north shore inn. The kitchen suite was available which was great for the family. I was unhappy about being on the ground floor but the staff assured... More
