"The lake,water activities, dining options, coffee shop, it was all there on this fun summer trip. We were pleasantly surprised by Prestige Resort. The room was clean, stylish, and comfortable. The lakeside rooms are certainly better views than the city side. Nelson is situated in a valley surrounded by breathtaking mountains, all around. The hotel is at the bottom of the elevated streets where the shops and restaurants are located, so you will be walking 15-20 minutes uphill to get into the heart of the famous Baker Street area. My husband and I liked being closer to nature and a bit removed but if you really like the bustle more or want to park and forget your car while in the town you may want to stay a few blocks up. Prestige Resorts is what made a fun summer getaway. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There is a nice walking and bike path that runs between the lake and hotel that is great for exercise and following the west arm of the lake. The marina in front of the hotel offers kayaking, canoeing, and paddle boarding. The dock is available for swimming but there is no beach area by the hotel. That would be a nice addition for guests. The inside pool is nice but chilly. The hot tub worked great. Overall a nice pleasant hotel for a small town. "
