This is my first time staying in a B&B and it was a wonderful experience. I don't think I could go back to staying in a hotel. David and the other staff are very friendly and helpful and the breakfasts are delicious and healthy. My room was very comfortable especially the memory bed. Location is superb, loads of restaurants and... More

We decided to stay here because of the other great reviews we read. We were not disappointed. Another factor was the great location in the downtown Vancouver area. The area was very safe and we had no problem walking about. Free Parking is a bonus. David and his partner (I forgot his name) are perfect hosts, making you feel very... More

David is a gracious host, the B&B's proximity to downtown is prime, and the meals---vegan accommodation in our case---were outlandishly delicious. David also provided my fiancee and I with an excellent driving tour of posh West Vancouver and serene views from Cypress Mountain. An excellent value, especially in off or low season. We'll definitely be back!

There is also great,close,safe parking available to guests . Over the years we have recommended Nelson... More

I have been staying at Nelson House since 1997 and never stay anywhere else in Vancouver. Located in the middle of the historic West End neighborhood it is a lovely Arts and Crafts style home. Each of its rooms is decorated in a different style (kitschy and fun). Although only blocks to either Davie, Denman, Stanley Park or Robson Streets,... More

We stayed at Nelson House last friday night March 8, 2013. It was a Grand experience, the service, hospitality and information provided by the friendly owner David was truly impeccable! The very clean 1907 Edwardian era house is within walking distance of English Bay beach, Stanley Park and downtown. We had very quiet rest in the beautiful and palatial Vienna... More

We stayed at Nelson B&B for three nights. The location is great - we walked or caught buses everywhere with ease. The breakfast were tasty! The rooms are comfortable and there are nice touches like cookies and dressing gowns. Rooms were a little dark and a bit small but we did go for the cheapest option. Would stay again.

This was the third time we had used this B&B. This time we used the B&B at the end of our stay in Canada, we wanted somewhere to stay in Vancouver before catching our flight home.
