Charming suite just minutes from town!

We stayed for a week in the "Uphill" neighbourhood and found the location very convenient to all of the sites of Nelson & area that we wanted to visit. One note - this is not an easily walkable area - the streets are very steep hills! The suite is nicely appointed and comfortable, and Diane is a responsive and welcoming host!

Lovely suite in Nelson

The Gallery Suite is spacious, beautifully decorated, well stocked, and very comfortable! The location is excellent — convenient to downtown and hiking and cycling trails. Diane is an outstanding host and communications were easy. We enjoyed a tour of her studio and garden. Looking forward to visiting again soon! Donna and Fred Bend, Oregon

The Sweetest Suite

Diane’s property was absolutely the best place we could’ve imagined for our stay in Nelson. It was beautiful and well-equipped - Diane thought of everything. She even had toys ready for our three-year-old! She was extremely welcoming and we felt right at home in paradise. Will definitely return!

Family Accommodation in Nelson

We enjoyed our visit to Nelson and staying at this property. The home is beautiful and as described in the ad. We were about a 20 minute walk to downtown Nelson and did both walking trips and drives into town. It is located near the Rail Trail, which was a flat walk above town. This suite had everything we needed, including some basic pantry items, and we hope to enjoy the art studio next time we are in town.

Gallery Suite review

We (spouse and I ) really enjoyed our stay at the Gallery Suite. It is located in a quiet area with very scenic views of the town and Kootenay Lake from the doorway. We found it very clean and well equipped. (Excellent bed and great umbrella also available!) Location for trail walking and riding was excellent. Diane was very friendly and helpful for any Nelson information. We look forward to a future stay.

We had a wonderful stay at the Earth Studio Suite while exploring the Kootenays. The suite is very comfortable, clean, and beautifully decorated. I enjoyed many mornings with coffee and watching the sunset behind the mountain overlooking the Kootenay River from the patio.The suite is very quiet and private, but if you miss human connection, Diane is a wonderful artist and and full of wisdom. I enjoyed many conversations with her and visitng her pottery studio. I felt like a part of the community staying in her lovely home. I can't thank her enough for the wonderful experience.

The gallery suite was beautiful, just as described. The host lives on site, above the unit and runs her business on the property. House is located roughly a mile from downtown, but high up on the hill overlooking town. Gorgeous views of Kootenay Lake. Our only issue, which was just a personal preference - the bed was very soft with a pillow top. I know some love a soft mattress, but my husband and I woke up daily with sore backs. Other than that, things were perfect. Love Nelson so much!

Wonderful!

The suite was gorgeous! Artfully decorated, very spacious and comfortable for our family. Unique touches and lovely artwork. The house was on a quiet street with easy access to walk and hike. There is a front sitting area with lovely views for our morning coffee. The back garden was lovely and the ceramic studio/gallery made this a unique and memorable experience. Diane was a fantastic host who provided tips about local places and events. Extremely clean with a well-appointed kitchen and quality linens. This was one of the nicest spaces we have stayed in.

A relaxing experience

We really enjoyed our time in the Gallery Suite. It is perfectly set up for 2 people, well appointed with new kitchen appliances. The local art added character. Diane was communicative, accessible and pleasant to interact with. The air conditioner works well if you go during a heat wave like we did. We appreciated the available bear spray for our walks on the rail trail, however we didn't see any bears. The whole visit to Nelson was very enjoyable.

Colourful!

We loved the suite! It was complete and felt like we were staying in a luxury accommodation. Everything we could need was there along with those special touches - fine soaps, coffee, a dish of candy sweets, a bottle of wine..... We enjoyed the privacy of the suite but also the visits we had with the owner, Diane. The location at the top of the city provided a nice view but was a very short distance to downtown and even closer to the Rail trail which we took advantage of on two of our days in Nelson. We highly recommend this suite and would definitely stay there again! Thanks Diane for your hospitality!

Never staying anywhere else!

Wow, Diane’s place exceeded any and all expectations for our stay. The unit below the main home was perfect for our Nelson getaway. The kitchen is large enough to get groceries and cook for the week, the biggest plus is being able to see Diane’s amazing pottery up close and personal! The small fireplace was perfect to keep the unit warm and to help dry our snowboard clothes. The bed was large, comfortable, and perfect for the end of the day. Bathroom was well equipped with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash! Last but not least, don’t forget to view the art walk in the back yard. Overall, we are coming back and only utilizing Diane’s property. Diane has the most warm and inviting presence, and was always available to answer the questions I had. We look forward to coming back soon!

Beautiful stay in Nelson

This is an absolute gem of a property in Nelson. The unit was spotless and spacious. The decoration and furnishings are unique and will make you feel as if you are staying at a luxury resort. The lighting was excellent which is something that is often lacking in hotel rooms. Beautiful hand made pottery dishes made by the owner are available for you to use. Little touches like chocolates, coffee and cream in the fridge were unexpected but appreciated. I always hate it when there are not enough hangers in the closet, but there were plenty here. Easy access to the Rail Trail for a nice hike. Diane, the owner was lovely and helpful. I would recommend this property highly and look forward to coming back for a return visit.

Our family of four loved our stay here. It was clean, spacious and comfortable. We had all the amenities we required and the location and character of the suite was perfect for feeling immersed in that Nelson charm. The gas fireplace kept us very comfortable in March. Diane was super responsive and friendly (only a text away) and was quick to come to our rescue with a missing birthday candle! Thanks for a great stay Diane. It was just what we’d hoped for.
