I'm a frequent traveller for work and always enjoy staying at the Saxton Lodge. My sister frequents this place alot with her sports affilliated job so she recommended it to me. I speak more highly of the wonderful, friendly hosts- and they are the mian reason for my return visits. Very clean and spacious rooms. Fantastically comfy beds and hot,... More

Stayed 4 nights and was most impressed with the service - Staff very friendly and obliging , rooms very spacious and cleaned daily, very clean communal kitchen, shuttle free of charge to and from airport - overall a very pleasant experience and would recommend the Saxton Lodge to any travellers.

Pleasant/Professional hosts. Stayed three nights in a unit on the Saxton Rd side of the complex - no traffic noise & a spacious unit. The rate was very reasonable. Communal kitchen well stocked - white goods are due for a deep clean but other than that the kitchen area was of a good standard. Was a little disappointed that a... More

We met my folks in Nelson for a couple of nights and Dad booked us in Saxton Lodge. My sister & I literally chanced upon the hotel before needing to pull up a map. Huge amount of parking (so many other hotels/motels have one park per room). Iron & board, hair-dryer, coffee & tea making facilities in the room. We... More

I stayed at Saxton Lodge for one night and really liked it. The linen is spotlessly clean and the furnishing make you feel like you are in a luxury lodge. The room was huge and about the size of my studio/bed-sit apartment when I lived in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Really liked the huge shower and private balcony facing the sunset.... More

We've stayed at Saxton Lodge several times on overnight trips to Nelson. Rooms are very spacious, clean and comfortable; service is great. There's a bit of traffic noise sometimes but not enough to prevent a good night's sleep. Location between Nelson and Richmond suits us perfectly as we always have the car and we find Richmond convenient and well-serviced.

The Saxton Lodge provided excellent accomodation for our team playing at National Champs. The location was perfect, just up the road from our venue. The rooms were spotless when we arrived and were cleaned daily. The facilities on offer were very good. The best thing about the Saxton Lodge was the "nothing is too much trouble" attitude from the proprieters.... More

This is a great motel if you are visiting friends or playing sport at the adjacent Saxon Field, but a car is essential; the motel is located between Nelson and Richmond - there are no shops or restaurants nearby. The room was huge, and had been warmed in advance of our arrival - a very nice touch on a bleak... More
