I just returned from my 7th trip to New Zealand in 12 years and have to rave about Accents On The Park. I have stayed in many different types of lodging on both islands from backpackers, holiday parks and luxury lodges. This was one of the most fun to stay at yet. The owners are there most of the day... more

We stayed here for 3 nights whilst travelling through Nelson region, and stayed in the higher end ensuite queen. I must say that this room & hotel were was the best place by far on our travels! The hotel is a victorian era place set over 3 levels, with real attention to detail on all fixtures & fittings, service and... more

I wanted my own bathroom as an ensuite which I got from this lovely establishment, a TV and tea & coffee making facilities and so close to everything in Nelson I was able to walk around mostly. I would recommend anyone to stay there, I had a most pleasant experience and would definitely stay there again if I went to... more

I swore I would write a review of this place when I returned from NZ...but apparently I didn't get around to it for 3 years. Anyway, the owners of Accents on the Park(can't remember their names) were super friendly & helpful. The place was immaculate, well maintained and had a great little pub with some awesome local beer...how could you... more

What an awesome hostel in every way! We had a double ensuite at the back of the building.Our room was spacious, quiet, comfortable, and very clean. We even had a TV. Parking is only $3 and directly behind the hostel. The check-in staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming upon arrival. I didn't get to see the communal rooms but I... more

I've read so many good reviews about this place and recommendations in tour books, but my experience was this: I went to their website and submitted my reservation request. I heard nothing back and then resubmitted my request. Nothing. I then went back to the website and checked everything again and still no word on confirmation. Our trip schedule was... more

I have stayed in many hostels across NZ and I would rate this as the best. It is extrem clean and comfortable. Location is central without the hassle and noise of being central. Owners are very welcoming and cant help you enough. I would stay there again without hesitation. more

Having backpacked through New Zealand twice, I can definitely say that this is the best, cleanest, friendliest hostel in New Zealand. It's more like a small boutique hotel then a backpacker lodge. The owners are incredibly friendly and obviously love their job and the hostel. Everything is incredibly clean, and the place has a lot of character, with little couches... more

My partner and I travelled throughout the South Island from 25/10/08 and for the first week had his 10 year old daughter with us. We thought we would try a Backpackers since I worked with someone who recommended them. Accents on the Park can best be described as a 'Flashpackers'. It is situated directly opposite a gorgeous park on a... more
