Our
Testimonials

Absolutely thrilled with our stay. One of the very best self serviced hotel we’ve ever stayed at and we have traveled extensively through many countries.
Spacious, walking distance to all the great restaurants and shops and the sound maker, local coffee and extra towels were much appreciated. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone thinking of visiting Nelson. Thank you Marika!

Super clean, quiet and had everything we could possibly need to eat in and be as comfortable as home. I loved the keypad entry so we didn’t have to worry about keys. Elon & Marika are wonderful hosts and I highly recommend staying at their cute little hotel!

My husband and I stayed at the Stirling All Suites for a quick weekend getaway!  It was perfect!  The rooms were super clean, well decorated, and had everything we needed. The service was exceptional, and we appreciated the personal touch of Marika reaching out, and the amazing service she provided.  Also, the location could not be better.  We highly recommend and will definitely be back!

It was my good fortune to stay at Stirling Hotel last month. I am a photographer, and I have photographed 100’s of hotels and stayed in many of them. This is the nicest stay I’ve ever had! I was there for almost a week, and tried two different suites. Every suite in this hotel is wonderful. The cleanest hotel I have ever seen in my life! No joke. Every need I had while there had been thought of and taken care of before I thought of it. The place is centrally located and all you have to do is walk a short distance for food or drinks.
I often have a hard time sleeping in hotels, but not here. They make it like a home, not a hotel. I was skeptical at the “no contact” type of hotel, but I was surprised to love it.  Easy to check in, and I knew exactly what to expect when I arrived late one weekday night. I had spoken to Marika before I arrived, and she made my life a lot easier with helpful info. I was shocked at that. 5 star reviews can be hard to believe, but rest assured, this is well deserved. I would never stay anywhere else in Nelson.
