We enjoyed our stay at the Lord Nelson Hotel. The front desk staff are unfortunately not very friendly. They proceed with the check in and check out process in a rather robotic manner, without smiles or conversation. I would suggest front desk training program with an emphasis on representing the hotel in a positive way considering they are the first point of contact for guests.

The room was clean and the staff friendly and helpful. The hotel is older so a few little things were not working such as the room safe (needed batteries) and outlet in the bathroom but great location!
