The Rutherford Hotel (named after Sir Ernest Rutherford) is a luxury accommodation hotel in Nelson, New Zealand. It is the biggest hotel in Nelson, and the tallest building.It is part of the chain company Heritage Hotels, which have hotels based in many locations around NZ.

Location

The hotel itself is located at a slight left from the intersection of Trafalger Square Road and Nile, although the main entrance is on Trafalger Square Road.The hotel stands on the west edge of Trafalger Square, the gardens surrounding Nelson Cathedral. The bell tower stands close to the hotel, and can be seen from rooms in the southern wing. The hotel was built in the 1970's, surpassing the then tallest building, the Post Office Building. The hotel is located in the Nelson CBD.

Exterior

The hotel is well known in Nelson, especially to locals, as it dominates the skyline, and can be seen from other suburbs. It is also easily identifiable by the large sign with a golden, curly R on top of the building. It is a Bisque colour in appearance. Adjacent to the lobby entrance is the world famous Hogland Glass company retail outlet. There is a swimming pool located outside the hotel.

Interior/Lobby

The hotel lobby has the main desk slightly left of the entrance, and a grand staircase, leading to the mezzanine, and then to the other floors. The lobby also has elevators operating from the bottom floor to the top floor. There is a large wishing fountain located in the lobby, and often there will be a classic car parked in the lobby for viewing, from the WOW (World Of Wearable Arts and Classical Cars) museum. The hotel has 9 floors and 114 rooms, as well as a gymnasium and a business centre. Unlike most hotels, there are multiple restaurants in the hotel:the seafood restaurant, Oceano, the Japanese restaurant, Miyazu,located on the mezzanine floor, the Rutherford Cafe and Bar, and the nautical themed Port 'o' Call bar.
