Beautifully renovated old building with lots of character. We shared a double queen room with friends and there was a bathroom between the two bedrooms. We ate at the restaurant and Atlynn was very friendly and attentive to us. The food was very good with generous portions. Check-in and check-out was very simple and quick when booked through Expedia. However we found if we book directly with Hume hotel we would have gotten free breakfasts.

Picked the Hume at random. Lucky us!!

The Hume was our last stop coming home from Canada to the States. It was a refuge for weary travelers. Our room was so spacious and the accommodations were lovely. Breakfast was delicious, the staff was informative and the history of the hotel was very interesting. While it is an historic hotel it provided all the comforts of home!!

Older hotel but highly recommend, multiple restaurants to choose from in the hotel. Good service, no on site parking but parkade next door. Room was comfortable and clean, bright and lots of towels. Dry sauna in the Spa was fantastic. Definitely worth it.

Loved our stay, definitely will stay there again

Hotel staff members were professional yet friendly and eager to ensure we had a great experience. We were impressed with everything from the very comfortable mattress on our bed to truly excellent dinners in The Library restaurant and lounge. They warned us that the rooms sometimes may not be super quiet due to the hotel's downtown location and the rooms' proximity to a pub inside the hotel. They were even thoughtful enough to provide packaged ear plugs in one of the nightstands but we didn't notice noise to be a problem at all. In fact, we thought our room was surprisingly quiet for such an old albeit remodeled hotel. We also loved all of the historical photos on the walls throughout the hotel, showing pride in the establishment's and Nelson area's past.

I’ve stayed here virtually every time I visit Nelson and the Hume is the place to be, bar none. Still retains its old world charm but amenities are modern and flawlessly renovated. I would absolutely recommend the Hume as it’s a great hotel and definitely has a high end luxury feel for reasonable price.
