Tuscany Gardens Motor Lodge

Great family stopover location. Very clean

13th March 2024 Dated, tired and Needs a make over - over priced, dreadful road noise . Asked for quiet room sadly due to single glazing and motel location on a busy road this was BAD. Rooms very basic decor, firm beds where you could feel the join badly (2 singles together) booked a king. It would be hard to escape the noise from road single glazing does no favours.Ear plugs should provided in rooms sadly didnt have any on hand -what a shame worst sleep as a result and woken early when traffic and trucks started first thing. The motel ideally should say somehting about noise ...I am sure reading reviews we are not the only ones to have this complaint. Outdoor areas needed a freshen up, leaves swept .Bathrooms you could see black mould etc..needs a good srub and bleach Clean.This is not good enough. Dated fixtures/old corroded mirror .Paid more around 241 corp rate for a spa room (what a joke worst spa) noisy old and dribbled out spa jets. Toaster wasnt clean and overall due to be being dated and sparse it didnt feel fresh. Lamp shades askew ....drapes x 3 singles, not joined.. All of the above does not hurt as much if you pay for what you get, or your informed. at $240/night deluxe studio you would and should expect more. On the postive side the managers were delightful and friendly and was made to feel very welcome shown to the room ..the office hours were 8 am however they were not open when I left the key. I did email my concerns and felt I had been over charged noise/old spa/cleanliness etc...The managers sent my email to overseas owners after my second email 16th March -no surprise not one word from the owners. Dreadful shame on you. Will never stay there again and would not as a globally travelled perosn 30+ years of travel reccomend this place -especially at the overinflated prices they charge.

Clean, practical accommodation and reasonably located for the beach area of Nelson. However, you won’t want to stay long. Motel is tired, in need of a refurb and located alongside a busy main road so very noisy with a constant hum of traffic. We liked the idea of a balcony but it looked out onto an internal courtyard with no view as very large tree protruding. Ran out of hot water on the morning before checking out.

A clean, tidy unit with everything we needed supplied. Spacious bathroom with fabulous shower. Laundry available. Kind, cheerful staff. Close to great eateries, the beach and the city itself. Highly recommend this motel.

A 4 night stay in a lovely apartment, spotlessly clean, tidy and modern. Off street parking right outside our door, a really comfortable bed and pillows, great shower and a handy well equipped kitchenette, outside private patio with chairs and table. Daily room service. Our hosts Paul and Adela were very welcoming and accommodating. Walking distance to the beach and very close to many shops bars and restaurants, a lovely area to spend some in, we were very happy with finding Tuscany Gardens Motor Lodge and would highly recommend this place to any visitors to Nelson. “ Thanks for a great stay “

Right next to the Tahananui beach and park and a 10 minute drive from Nelson, this accommodation was a great find for two nights. Rooms have generous proportions, beautifully appointed and comfy facilities, clean and tidy with a nice balcony and warmed by the setting sun. Close walking distance to Tahunanui Beach. It is on a busy road but with double glazing that was not an issue.
