Fully refurbished and redecorated in 2015, boutique hotel rooms all feature elegant furnishings and a superior standard of comfort with views of either the colourful cottage gardens or Nelson’s Kahurangi mountain range and the Waimea Inlet.

Each wing of the hotel offers easy access to a coffee and tea bar for a late-night drink, and for avid readers a small library is available. Next to reception, guests have access to the hotel lounge and patio area.

Each boutique hotel room at Grand Mercure Nelson Monaco includes a queen size bed. Two rooms have permanent twin beds, which must be requested at time of booking.

These spacious studios feature a super king split bed (bedding configuration to be specified at the time of booking). Units are available on two levels with ground floor suites and second storey suites. The downstairs studios have showers over a bath and the upstairs studios have a shower only. Wheelchair accessible rooms are also available on request.

The studio rooms have views of the resort’s Village Green. Each room has a kitchenette with a microwave, tea and coffee facilities, double stove-top and fridge.

These romantic cottages are furnished with a four poster bed and marble bathroom with European style double jet shower and large spa bath.

The one-bedroom cottages are split over two levels, with a self-contained kitchen, open-plan dining and lounge, gas fireplace, writing desk and courtyard downstairs, and the bedroom and bathroom upstairs. The bedroom is beautifully appointed with bedside cabinets, lamps, suitcase rack and hanging space. In summer all rooms have opening windows and there are French doors that open on to a private courtyard at the back of the cottage.
