About this place The Prince Albert

The Prince Albert is a backpacker hostel with its own bar and restaurant on Nile Street in Nelson, at the top of New Zealand's South Island. It is a mainstream place listed as gay-friendly, not a gay venue. Breakfast is included, and the hostel offers bike hire and a shuttle service, which helps for trips to the Abel Tasman and the local cycle trails. Google gives it 4.4 from about 580 reviews. The bar is the social hub, so rooms near it can be noisy in the evening. It is a short walk to Nelson's town centre.

We had a fantastic meal at The Prince Albert last night. Only had main meals which were beautifully presented, tasted amazing and left no room for dessert. The roast came with plenty of meat and vegetables. The ribs also covered in tender meat, my burger was tasty well presented and very filling. I would highly recommend a beautiful meal here, lovey staff and great service. Thank you so much
