James Cook Hotel Grand Chancellor

10/10 Excellent

"Centrally situated close to Event Centre and met all expectations and value for money"

TRYP by Wyndham Wellington, Tory Street

10/10 Excellent

"Great little hotel with friendly staff. We found the location so handy to bars, restaurants and cafes. Loved my stay will return again the future"

Museum Apartment Hotel, Independent Collection by EVT

8/10 Good

"Room was well presented and quiet but the air conditioning / heating was noisy. If you turned it off it got cold and there’s no blankets in the rooms. The pool is a bit disappointing there’s no lights in the pool and nowhere to sit if you’re not going in the pool. Room was well presented with everything you need. Breakfast was average at best and apart from the view I’d go elsewhere to one of the cafes. Staff were all very helpful"

Adina CityLife Wellington

8/10 Good

"Interactions with Reception were always slow and transactional, going through the motions like robots. Older decor throughout but room was spacious, clean and comfortable and enjoyed the 11am checkout time. Would stay again if price was right"

Gilmer Apartment Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay. Our room was as new; everything was spotless and well presented. Daily service available if required. Easily accessible parking and a lift to Lambton Quay nearby. Staff were great, with professional service and some good advice on places to see and a good map. Priced very well compared to others. We haven't stayed here for a couple of years, but this will now be our new go-to place to stay in Wellington"
