Parking was in the road outsodethe Richmond Guest House. The owner validates your vehicle to park. Check in was a little later than we advised as our ferry crossing dictated our arrival in Wellington. Our host was fine when we ipdatrd our arrival time once the ferry departed South Island. Breakfast was included and was enjoyed by both of us.

Great stay all around! Perfectly convenient location to explore the CBD or grab a bus to points further afield. Our room was comfy & clean, with plenty of windows for natural light, but equipped with curtains to have a peaceful rest. The Innkeeper, John, is a pleasure & a delight. He provides lovely hospitality including a very friendly breakfast service, which included such a variety, something for every taste. We will stay here again.
