Expansive room with good amenities. Staff were particularly friendly and solicitous. Some ongoing construction involving the hotel entrance posed a bit of a challenge in finding the direction of the car entry. Overall, excellent value.

Great access to the Botanical Gardens. A good loop walking tour is to walk along to the cable car. Take it up to the top and then explore the museum, and various trails and gardens back down to the Hotel through the old cemetery.

Really lovely hotel with little touches that add to the comfort, ie robes and slippers. My son and I enjoyed the facilities (pool, spa and gym). The rooms are nicely decorated and comfortable. Yummy food on offer. Easy to wander Wellington city from the hotel’s location. A lovely place to stay on our holiday.

The staffs are very welcoming and accommodating. The in-room coffee is great. The in-suite laundry is a plus. It’s located just across the street from the parliament - very convenient. Need to pre booking for valet since it’s hard to park in downtown.
