The Nurses Home Guesthouse - Reefton

I canceled the booking 2 days before the date,via email txt and ph call.They withdrew the $ from my credit card 2days after cancelling .After 5 phone calls and 3weeks I still haven’t received my refund.

I enjoyed my stay here, the place had a nice, welcoming vibe. It's a well loved building that could do with a lick of paint in places but the carpet was new (I suspect it's hard maintaining a building this old.) There was lots of Reefton history on the walls which was useful as I had visited some of the places on the drive in. The whole building is open 24/7 but you have your own room key so security is not an issue (in fact I had the majority of the place to myself during my stay. Very surreal!). Outside are some established gardens which hide the street making it very peaceful. The building is U shaped with a courtyard in the middle. Great to sit in the sun with a coffee (or a beer!) and a book or chat to someone. Off street parking is round the back which made it easier to keep an eye on my car (I drive a Demio!). There's a large kitchen with everything you need to cook up a feed and a fridge/freezer to store food. Plus a lounge with settee and TV. Showers had good water pressure. All up good value for the price. Can definitely recommend if you're looking for somewhere to stay in Reefton.

I booked a twin unit for my son and I for today. We arrived but there was no response when I rang the bell nor the managers cell phone. The latter call asked me to text so I did. No response. So I called the land line and was advised to call the mobile which I did only to get the message to text. I am still waiting for anything, have booked in elsewhere, cheaper, and will cancel payment

Lovely room clean comphy bed, communal living areas which was great to meet other guests. Friendly welcoming staff, most of the hotels in the town were hospitable , dinner at Dawson's Hotel delicious. Totally recommend the Old Nurses home .

Have stayed here twice now and very happy with my stays. Good beds, well equiped kitchen and nice lounge. Have found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. Location is fine, a short walk from town and food outlets. Good parking spot for cars and motorcycles. Showers and bathrooms are clean and there’s plenty of hot water.
