Urban style meets modern convenience on the harbor waterfront
The InterContinental Wellington is the perfect place for a relaxing, comfortable stay in a beautiful harbor-side location in New Zealand's capital city. The hotel offers guests two options for dining, The Chameleon and The Lobby Lounge, the former offering breakfast and dinner and the latter providing lunch and dinner. The fully equipped gym, Jacuzzi spa and sauna are welcome amenities, with massage treatments available by appointment. The hotel also has an indoor heated pool.

- Crazyhorse Steakhouse
- A unique little steakhouse with Devine beef cooked to perfection. Has an extensive wine list to accompany your meal. Tip: Try the apple crumble for dessert.

- One Red Dog Restaurant
- This restaurant pioneered the gourmet pizza in Wellington. A very busy restaurant with daily specials and an extensive wine and cocktail list. Tip: Great place to start off your night or to grab a late bite as the kitchen is open till midnight.
- The Backbencher Pub and Café
- The heart of political satire in Wellington city with many life-sized props of NZ politicians and accounts of our short history. Tip: A lunchtime meeting could have you bump into a Member of Parliament.

Short walk from hotel
Head down to the waterfront and enjoy the pubs and restaurants. I learned of them just after I'd had an OK, but not great late night meal in the Hotel's restaurant.

Used the Club room option. Very nice club lounge with excellent, attentive service. Room was well appointed and very comfortable. Location excellent for our buisiness trip. Concierge assistance with taxi and baggage storage couldn't be faulted. Check in and check out were handled very efficiently.

mad
we'll try somewhere else next time
I was promised a phone call when the room was ready but "it didn't go through". Perhaps the "InterContinental" check-in desk can't make international calls. I suspect they never tried. We went back and apparently the room was ready but the bath towels and soap were missing and the hand towels were dirty. Throughout our four day stay, the Business Center was never staffed. There's no wifi. Internet access costs $10 for half an hour or some such ridiculous rate. The food at the Chameleon lived up to its pretensions, which is fair praise indeed. Service, though, could have been more attentive. Every night and morning, watch the maitre d' fiddle with her computer for minutes before one of the waiters notices you "waiting to be seated" and takes pity. Yeah, you could cough, but why should you have to? You could die of thirst waiting for a refill. New Zealand is full of great coffee, so don't touch the regular joe at the InterContinental. I could sleep fine on a soft bed or a fairly hard bed but not this bed. The seemingly warn-out mattress offered very little support. They did take good care of our bags on the first and last days. When I needed first aid, the concierge was helpful and knowledgeable. The gym guy really tried. Well, it was pretty cheap, at ~150 USD / night.
