My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The huge and comfortable rooms were great for a quiet rest, but they felt a bit dated. The service was excellent, especially in arranging a super quiet room for me. The central location was convenient to explore Wellington, but there was a lack of light in some areas. The dining options were relatively bland and overpriced, yet the succulent organic chicken stood out.

I loved my stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, right in the heart of Wellington, close to all the main attractions. The rooms were charming, some with views over the bustling shopping street and others overlooking a peaceful courtyard. The service was top-notch, with staff going above and beyond to accommodate our needs. The only downside was that the staff could use some brushing up on their local knowledge of Wellington. The dining options were basic but satisfactory. Overall, a great value for a cozy stay in the heart of the city.

Our stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were of high quality with quality fittings, quiet, and roomy, yet the cost seemed inflated for what was provided. The service was mostly helpful, especially when we needed an early check-out, but we encountered an issue with unjust accusations regarding smoking in the room. The location was ideal for both business and leisure travelers, although some aspects of the hotel seemed a bit worn out. The dining experience was subpar with a lack of quality and variety in the breakfast options.
