The Innbetween Lodge and Backpackers  

In the heart of Nelson, a short walk from Christ Church Cathedral, Nelson Market and the waterfront. This lodge/hostel sits by the sea and is minutes from the Nelson Provincial Museum — a great pick for backpackers and family-friendly stays.

Eighteen rooms blend hostel energy with private comforts. En‑suites come with TV, a small fridge and kettle; many rooms include microwaves. Balconies overlook cathedral gardens and the courtyard. Communal lounges are dressed with leather sofas, a big-screen TV, a library corner, board games and even a guitar and ukulele.

Rent bikes, take in views from the terrace and garden, or chill in the picnic and BBQ area. There’s a playroom for kids, wedding services, tour/ticket assistance, luggage storage and laundry. Roundtrip airport shuttle can be arranged (24‑hour, surcharge) and on‑site self‑parking is available.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi keeps you online. Multilingual staff, luggage storage and laundry facilities make work-and-travel stays easier.

An on‑site restaurant and bar/lounge serve guests, plus an open dining area beside a fully equipped communal kitchen (ovens, grills, large chillers, microwaves, rice cookers and more). Perfect for cooking fresh finds from nearby Nelson Market.
