Great hotel

Always love staying here! Disappointed with the parking situation, first in, first served. In communications regarding parking, we should have been informed there was a function on for 3 days so there wouldnt be any parking available. Great clean room and comfy bed. Shower didnt stay at same temp, kept going hot and cold both evening and morning. Great view of harbour. Breakfast was held in another room due to function and there werent enough tables. Buffet had a great selection, very yummy!

Good hotel in great location

For a family group the room we chose, with one queen and two single beds was ideal. The room was tidy and clean. The location is very handy for the Te Papa end of Wellington too. Parking is available for a fee on a first come, first served basis.

The view of the city skyline, the boats and the water were simply fabulous. Will definitely stay here when I return.

When we asked for tourist info the first afternoon we had a terrifying walk through the red light area. Not safe- receptionist should not have sent us that way. Everything was a shambles. The special room we booked involved me sleeping in a dark part of the room with no windows - claustrophobic and no power points by my bed. Not great for luxury bay view room.

Fantastic stay with my family. Staff were a standout, reception team very friendly. My daughter is afraid of elevators and the kind lady helped me unlock the stairs outside (unfortunately it was raining and staff member did get wet) so that I could walk our girl up to our room. Great location, room very clean, tidy and warm which was a must as we had a 8 week old baby with us. Only feedback was our room was a little outdated which didnt affect us too much, but no PowerPoint next to one of the beds meant I had to get up and down for my phone. And no lamps, the lighting was quite harsh for second bed. Bed by the tv was perfect. Thank you for an awesome stay, we will be back!
