I have recently visited the Nelson region to re-acquaint myself and to find new venues in the area. The refurbished bedrooms at The Rutherford look great but the biggest transformation is the conference rooms. They have built new conference rooms which are amazing and of course purpose built with all that is required for an efficient meeting. With lots of natural light, a high ceiling and wonderful pre-function areas it must be one of the best in the country.
The Monaco Hotel is one of my favourites in the whole country styled after an English village so very unique. It is an extremely well run hotel with a good range of conference space. Without doubt the Honest Lawyer pub across the road is certainly an attractive neighbour for after conference relaxation!
As well as the 2 main hotels and several very well run motels there are numerous attractive and different places for outings and dinners.
For a unique small conference the Wilson’s Lodge at Torea Bay is in a stunning location and a wonderful spot for a small, casual meeting.
