Receptionist was professional, friendly and welcoming. Sojourn was perfect for our visit with a loved one in Wellington Hospital. It’s walking distance to supermarkets, restaurants and on the main bus route to the city. Beautiful, clean and comfortable bed. Very clean. One of the best hotels we’ve stayed at in Wellington.

This was a surprise hotel. From the staff service to the quality of the rooms, it surpassed any expectation that I may have had. I would return for another stay without hesitation. Some of the dining options in the area are a bit limited but the local cafe breakfast options were good.

We had a great stay, the room was clean and had all the facilities as per description. Very handy to the hospital but a bit further away from town, which is still walking distance and there is public transport outside. Would definitely stay again as very handy to family.

Very nice room, we rented the two bedroom with the kitchen, it’s right across the street from the hospital. It would be a great location, if you had a family member at the hospital, we found it slightly loud on Saturday night to relax.

Really impressed by the customised hotel help menu in that smart TV, secure carpark is also automated, and smart AC, would love to stay a bit longer next time. Also in a very convenient location immediately next to woolworths and but stops (but also a bit noisy in the morning due to that convenience)
