Very nice hostel, very 'old school', with a large living room and a nice garden. The showers and toilets were super clean, the area felt safe. The hostel is 15 minutes walk from the bus terminal, 20 minutes walk from a Woolworth. They also serve chocolate pudding and ice cream in the evening which is super nice.
The premises might look a bit old, but at the end of the day the place is clean, the area is safe and it's really good value for money and that it's what is important. Would recommend to friends!

Everyone I met were amazing, friendly and very interested in why my Husband and i were in Nelson. The uphill was a challenge but doable, the parking was hard as we had a big 4x4 but again it was doable. The owner of The Palace was a pretty cool down to earth person. We enjoyed our stay and we will go back again.

Awesome decorations! Paintings and jokes on the walls were all phenomenal! Magnificent! One of the best hostels so far! Lovely volunteers
This would have to be one of the best backpackers we've stayed in! Great location, comfy bed and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved the restaurant and ate there twice!! Ghe place had a really good vibe and was a mixture of young backpackers and locals having a drink or meal.
Backpacker hostel very friendly and clean. I like everything. I really recommend this hostel. I would like to comeback
Great location, friendly and helpful staff, beautiful clean hostel.
Great location, great facilities safe and secure. Generous size rooms with everything you can think of available. Short 3 minute walk to the beach, shops restaurants, petrol station everything is right on the doorstep. The owner Neville is a lovely host as well. Would highly recommend the Sands and we will definitely be back :)
The patio is very nice. Everything you need as a backpacker is provided. I liked the vibe of the hostel. I didn't go to the pub.
Had a small single room with bath which I appreciated. I enjoyed the courtyard, yoga room and communal kitchen. It's a good backpackers hostel.
Best hostel I've encountered in a long time. Super helpful staff, great location.
Great location, well equipped kitchen. All of Nelson within walking distance. Best hostel manager - big shout-out to Tom! Really fun guy!
