Reviews
"This was confusing - as I have stayed here years ago - but now understand the two towers have very different room standards. I booked 2 nights and we were in the old tower. The rooms are so dated and run down - it was disappointing as I assumed the room would be the same as my last visit so the price reflective for that. I know many places that would have been a lot nicer and quieter for around the same money. Won’t ever stay again - also housekeeping woke us on Saturday morning - the sound barriers in the hallway is terrible! Can hear everything including the room next door alarm going off and the fact they slept through it for ages!!!!"
"Definitely not a 4 star hotel. Just spent the weekend at this hotel, we certainly wont be back. The rooms in the photo gallery on the hotels website are not a true reflection of what you will get. The rooms are seriously tired and overdue a revamp. The bathrooms are terrible, shower has no pressure and roof tiles are disgusting. The menu in the restaurant and room service are very limited and very overpriced. The front desk didn’t seem too bothered when I shared my thought. If considering this hotel I would think twice there are so many other options available."
"Very happy with our stay here. We came down for the night to watch the Womens World Cup Football. Straight off the motorway to the hotel. Nice clean room for 2 with undercover parking $200 - Fantastic deal. Room service was awesome for a late night dessert after the game - very yummy and quick delivery! Breakfast buffet was amazing! Thanks for the fast and friendly service."
"Rooms are a little shabby, need a refurbishment, carpet lifting, woodwork blistering from moisture, but adequate. We were in family suite 1214. Restaurant service was impeccable. Room service was disappointing. Reception check out was rude. Location is perfect being central city. Good for walking or bus routes up town."
"Very good location. Terrace room we stayed is clean and comfortable, just may need a bit update on the bathroom in the future. The service is outstanding. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Will be back there when visiting Wellington again in the future."
