A stay like never before.

It was the best service ever. We stayed there on July 7 in the evening. The two girls that were on shift that evening were the best. They were overly helpful and one of the girls even told us to go for a walk and that she will keep an eye out when a motorcycle Parking becomes available and that she will give us a call. I can’t say enough, but the service was just out of this world. Thank you so much for making it a memorable stay.

No sleep

The Hume is always a wonderful place to stay. But this time there were parties going until at least 2 AM both nights. A little hard to get any sleep.

A great base for discovering Nelson & area

We heeded all the warnings - if noisy night life might bother you, request a "quieter" room - so we did. We got an excellent room on the top floor, very spacious. All the staff we dealt with where friendly & helpful. We had 2 dinners, one in the more casual restaurant, one in the more formal library - the food was all excellent. The lamb was perfect, as was "Jose's Halibut" - very imaginative plate, everything worked! Excellent value as accommodation and for dining!

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!!

This hotel was amazing. Very historic and well preserved. The staff could not have been nicer. There is a parking garage right next door, so parking was convenient and easy. The only drawback is that the bar on the first floor had music that was so loud, the only way I could fall asleep was by using ear plugs. And we were on the 3rd floor. I loved the hotel, but I wouldn't stay there again unless the bar closed down.
