Adina CityLife Wellington

Adina CityLife Wellington

10/10 Excellent
"The 2 bedroom apartment was great. Situated central to cbd. However the biggest issue is the entrance and reception. Reception is on level 6 but the taxi dropped us at ground level. We were unable to get in. It was timely that someone arrived with a swipe card to help us. We also did the same to another group. Directions were not clear to where we had to register."

"Breakfast & evening dining available, but we didn't choose this on the trip. Were happy with the view from our room and how quiet it was. Would stay again."

James Cook Hotel Grand Chancellor

8/10 Good
"I recently travelled to Wellington for two nights to attend WoW. The James Cook was very conveniently located for this event and was only a quick walk to the event venue. One of the lifts down to Lambton Quay was undergoing maintenance for the three days we were there and this did create some significant queues and wait times around busy periods. The room was a good size and generally clean, although a deep clean of the room is needed as there were definitely areas of the room that were noticeably neglected - especially under the bench in the bathroom and the corners of the rooms, under furniture etc. I was also disappointed that although this is a hotel, there was no mini-bar. There was a mini-fridge but it was empty and after a long day and a long flight, this would have been welcomed. The noise levels from other guests in the corridors was also very noticeable, so there are some noise-proofing improvements that could be made. Otherwise a generally pleasant stay."

8/10 Good
"Older hotel, which is showing its age (dings, chipped paint). Best feature is proximity to CBD and the Harbourside walk. Not many people staying there but we didn’t get a Harbourview room. $30/day parking. Quiet. Small fridge and kettle, instant coffees/hit choc/teas, no microwave or other way to warm food. Small balcony with views of surrounding hills/neighborhoods. Good wifi."
