Description:
The Lord Nelson was built in 1928 and was for years the city's preeminent hostelry. It gradually sank in esteem and eventually ended up as a flophouse. In 1998, it was purchased and received a long-overdue top-to-bottom renovation. It certainly has location going for it: It's right across from the lovely Public Gardens and abuts lively Spring Garden Road. Rooms are furnished with Georgian reproductions. The business-class Flagship Rooms feature desks, ergonomic office chairs, robes, free local calls, and morning newspapers. The hotel charges a premium for rooms that face the street or the gardens, but it's worth it; others face into a rather bleak courtyard filled with service equipment. Off the handsome coffered lobby you'll find the Victory Arms, a cozy and convincing English-style pub. There's British pub fare like bangers and mash and fish and chips, but also more inventive cuisine such as Singapore noodles, nan pizzas, and Cajun-spiced cod sandwiches.
