Staff members are personable and professional, with an extra nod to the bartender, who has a special flare for cocktails, and Danielle, the guest services manager. The public gardens across to the street are not to be missed. Excellent dining options everywhere, and just a 10 minute walk to the waterfront. This hotel has a warmth and personal touch that is lacking in big, corporate chains. This was our second stay at the Lord Nelson, and we will definitely be back.
