Great place to stay. Our room was as new; everything was spotless and well presented. Daily service available if required. Easily accessible parking and a lift to Lambton Quay nearby. Staff were great, with professional service and some good advice on places to see and a good map. Priced very well compared to others. We haven't stayed here for a couple of years, but this will now be our new go-to place to stay in Wellington

Brilliant location. Pricey, but we had a magic two weeks here. Close walk to gym and pool. Front bed room (with the view) is noisey at night if you are a light sleeper but rear bedrooms quiet.
