This is the second time we have stayed at Hidden Gem & it is such a lovely little hide-away. The host is so lovely and helpful and the flat is so luxurious. Definitely recommend!
From the moment we walked in the "Hidden Gem" lived up to it's promise. Very comfortable furniture, all the breakfast needs you could want and the bathroom was lovely.Overall probably the nicest place we have stayed in and we have stayed in many

What a great location So peaceful great place to chill out.What a superb host Christine is she makes you feel special. I would recommend to anyone getting away for a break to wind down. It would be easily the best place We have stayed in
Such a lovely, peaceful property with so many thoughtful touches. Cozy, spotlessly clean, with a very comfortable bed, and secure parking. It really is a hidden gem, and we look forward to staying here again.
Christine is your host and she is fabulous. The Heretaunga little gem is wonderful. Very clean, comfy bed and a real home away from home. We will be staying again. Highly recommend this place.
What a gorgeous wee place to stay with everything we needed. Lots of homely touches, bed was comfy and shower was superb. Christine was an awesome host and has made her place a home away from home. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Once again I had the pleasure of staying at the Hidden Gem. Such a unique place very well presented, very comfortable and it had all the amenities of a small flat. This is value for money giving you privacy and space. This is my go-to place when staying in Wellington.
We loved staying here! The place was clean, stocked, and comfortable. Christine was a responsive and gracious host. We loved the the house was on a quiet street and tucked away, but close to restaurants and the train line. Highly recommend!
We found Hidden Gem to be spotlessly clean, spacious and the breakfast selection second to none. The fruitcake Christine left for us was the best.

This place is what it states - A hidden gem. Host Christine was very helpful for the stay. The place is very comfortable, clean and has everything you require. We stayed early September 2024 and wished we could have stayed longer. Breakfast provided was amazing. Couldnt fault the accommodation. A lot of food places close by if you didnt want to cook. Definitely a place to stay if you are in the Upper Hutt region.
A tranquil well appointed residence. Close to all amenities. It was perfect base for us to connect with family and friends from our home town. Thank you.
Easy access to accommodation.
We we're given clear and easy instructions to property.
Our host was very friendly and welcoming.
Accommodation was very clean and comfortable.
Would definitely recommend
Can't praise this high enough. Christine was a delight, so friendly and helpful. We will definitely return any time we are in Wellington. We felt we were in a home away from home that was so comfortable and quiet.
Welcoming host. Sunny private garden. Silverstream has a village feel to it, and flat walking everywhere. When a medical issue shortened the stay for one guest, our host Christine couldn't have been kinder. Would definitely hope to stay again.
Christine could not have been a better host. She was very responsive to our needs. She was very informative about where to go eat, places to see and parks to visit. We stayed for three months and was sad to say goodbye to her and her and the property. There was nothing amiss. It truly was a “hidden gem”!
We really enjoyed our month stay at Christine’s suite. The apartment fit our needs for travelling,cooking, and down time. The property is gated for safety and security.we would highly recommend for fellow tourists.p.s nearly forgot about her beautiful gardens.
