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.

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.

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.

Amazing home away from home

This is a wonderful little place with a kitchen, washer/dryer, a comfortable living room and bedroom -- everything you could possibly want in a home-away-from-home. It Is well furnished, beautifully stocked, and even has a fairly private entryway. The host is gracious, and helpful , and we loved everything about staying there.
