"The Wellington Art Museum hotel is surely the best place to stay in Wellington. The hotel has a high level of luxury, is comfortable and the staff are friendly and helpful - without being 'in your face' for the rest of your stay like other hotels. The Museum Art decor is interesting and provides a lovely eclectic atmosphere. The location of the hotel is also great! It is just a short taxi ride from the airport (make sure you go the scenic route) and then the harbour, Tepapa, the beach and ALL the restaurants are just a short walk away. Yet in the room is so quiet! Not a sound - no traffic noise, no neighbour noise no air conditioning noise just restful peace and quiet. It was also great when checking out to actually have a cab booked and reserved in our name and it arrived on time -so no last minute panic before the airport. We would happily recommend this hotel based upon our experience and hope to return ourselves one day."

"We stayed there in Dec 2020. Excellent service from friendly staff, room service to front counter. Very clean and modern, rooms with big beds and a fairly decent sized TV, The hotel is right in the middle of the city so we walked out of the front door straight into food places, bars, movie theatres, Te Papa, New World, KFC etc .. The Behive is not far and this hotel is around 15 mins to airport. We expected a lot of noise with the bars being so close but the hotel was super quiet (we were on level 6), The only downside was the carpark. The lanes and parking bay is sooo narrow and very difficult to negotiate. Coming down out of the parking spot was very difficult and had to have someone outside to assist - hotel carpark is $25 a day. Free parking on the road from 6pm - 8am every day FYI. Nevertheless, I would still give 5 star rating, great price for an excellent experience staying at the Oaks. Highly recommended to everyone! Thank you !!"

"We really enjoyed our stay at the Ibis Wellington Hotel. The Staff were very nice and the room was nice and clean. We got a great deal for 3 nights for 2 people. It was cheaper than staying at a double room at a Hostal. Thanks Agoda! This Hotel is 10 mins walk from restaurants and bars on Cuba St. I would recommend this Hotel!"

"it is the second time that we stay at the Rydges Wellington Hotel. as in the previous time, we were pleased with our room which was large, with a big window looking at the city. the staff were helpful and friendly. there was, as before, a charge of 30 nz dollars a day for the car valet parking, but since it is in the centre of town, it is understandable. the only drawback, -and this seems to be common for the hotels here- is the high cost if we would have wanted to use internet. (you are given 20 minutes free, though) we would not doubt to come back here."

"Stayed here for a day during my weekend trip to Wellington, a few months back and had a pleasant stay overall. Though I got there before the check-in time, the front desk executive was understanding of my situation and provided me a room which was being cleaned by housekeeping. They did a $10 charge on my credit card during check-in which was eventually reversed during check-out. The housekeeping staff were very polite and did a good job of getting the room ready. There was no air-con in the room but they provided a fan which seemed sufficient. The area around the hotel seemed safe at night. The positives of this hotel are its location and proximity to restaurants. On the whole, this property exceeded my expectations and is suitable for those looking for a stay at a central location in Wellington."

"Old property that serves as a backpackers, but also has private rooms, some with ensuites, some with shared facilities that are more than adequate. Nothing flash but it was warm (centrally heated with old radiator type system throughout hotel giving consistent dry heat). Mattress was reasonably new and comfortable, with clean linen. Double room was clean and spacious with relatively sparse old, solid furnishings, but perfectly suitable for a cheap overnight stay before/after a late afternoon flight, ferry, train or coach and when an early morning transfer is required. Handy to Bluebridge Ferry terminal and across the road from the central Wellington Railway Station, with an airport bus stop and Intercity bus stop within a 3 minute walk. Not really a destination hotel, and by no means of a high standard, but comfortable, straightforward and friendly. The price is the winner here. "

"Logan Brown very close proximity, Havana bar & Restaurant, this was my favourite, easy walking to Cuba street, then down to Te Papa, Gallipoli exhibition was incredible. We took an Uber out to Maranui Cafe at Lyall Bay, exceptional breakfast, brunch food and the salads looked devine. Jumped in another cab to go to Weta Workshop, we did one tour $28 or you can opt to do 2 tours for $45, one was fab, really pleased we did the tour and they have a free video running which is really information you can watch in the cave. Birthday dinner at Ortega fish shack, this was the highlight, amazing food, great service and a wee pernod with great red wine. This place is a must for your visit to Wellington. Our hotel has a great pool/gym area and Sauna. The front reception area is nice to sit and read the paper, definitely come back again for a stay."
