Find Hotels in Wellington, New Zealand

Breakfast or lunch at The Hangar. Afternoon drink or snacks at The Arborist; they say that the Lumberjack is the best burger in town - and it's true! Not huge as the name infers, it is the perfect size.

Wellington is definitely one of my favourite cities, it is not too big but it has everything: amazing museums (the Te Papa is the best museum I have ever seen, I liked it even more than the museums in New York or London), good restaurants and cafés (Midnight Espresso is great), a cool nightlife especially in Courtenay Place, it is close to the sea and it is great for shopping too (I love the Recycle Boutique, a huge Second Hand Shop).

Wellington, you truely are a fun safe vibrant safe city for nightlife, with a wide range of choices to suit all ethnithices.

We didn't have enough time to stay longer, but made the most in exploring the town one day and walking to the top of Mount Victoria the second day.

Excellent from every aspect. Lots to do and see along the huge natural harbour as well as in the compact city itself.

Friendly Wellingtonians. Te Papa Museum is one of the best I've been to anywhere. Recommend a trip on the cable car and walk downhill through the Botanical Gardens.

Groovy little city. Easy to get around. Great food and friendly people. The museum and art gallery are awesome.

The city is very compact and walkable, with lovely architecture and a great vibe. A walk along the harbourfront gives a very lovely view.

A getaway from busy city life. A very relaxing city to be in. Shop close generally very early. Only left with restaurant in the night.

Impressed with the number of local buses and how often they run. Impressed with the interest that local inhabitants show in wanting visitors to have a good time and to not miss any of Wellington's attractions.

If Lord of the ring is the tourist attraction, more information should be provided, such as the actual street nos and location for the GPS direction otherwise everyone could be got lost as we did, the promotion of restaurants is not enough too, no seafoods not fish market although we were at the coastal area.

I absolutely love Wellington! But keep a map with you just in case you get lost in the heart of the city.

Great city to visit,we had a wonderful morning at the Te Papa museum with free entry. There are many fantastic bars and restaurants all serving delicious food , we had an excellent meal at the General Practitioner in the Centre and the waterfront was a good place for a walk and a glass of wine.

I'm sold on the place. Far better night life than Auckland. Courtney Place is just a great area to spend a Fri or Sat night.

Beautiful and amazing there is so much to see, like I have been to the Botanic gardens 3 times, and I still haven't seen much of it, and it's right in the centre of the city.

It's Cold & Windy in the winter, It has a very interesting History and is great for sight seeing, eating lots of food, & drink.

A small city with a long history. Most dining and shopping are located within a small area in the middle of the city which you can cover by walking.

A beautiful old city. With many confusing alleyways. Because its a very hilly city there are lots of different levels to the city.

there were so many things to visit such as civic center, wellington train station, beehive parliament, church etc, most building was built long time ago so they look so old but antique.

We found Wellington great for walking around.Plenty of things to look at or buy,variety of shops to see and interesting cultural history at the museum.

I love Wgtn...born and bred in Lower Hutt...Welliwood rules. hate living in Auckland, but can't afford to move home.

Wellington is a nice compact city with much NZ history and culture to show. The harbour area is nice, and the sea view very beautiful.

Wellington city is pretty small, hence you could travel by foot (although there is extremely good taxi service for a comfortable ride).

Lovely clean city (except for Cuba Street). The transport system is excellent and there is really no need to hire a car.

Great city to base yourself for a few days to explore the bottom of the north island & the top of the sth islands.

Sight seeing around the harbour,parliament,zoo,art gallery,parks and a drive out to Petone to La Bella Italia for lunch,the best of the best.

Wellington, Movie town: Weta cave, Movie tours, and don't miss The Roxy Theater close to the airport.
