Well maintained clean rooms. Awesome breakfast. Really good spread and tasty. Very friendly check in staff and even friendlier house keeping crew.

Rydges Wellington Airport
Didn't have breakfast, so no comment. The major restaurant was closed, but the Peltonen had a simple menu and their food was excellent. Well done to who ever is in charge of Food & Beverage there

Oaks Wellington Hotel
The hotel is nice if a little run down. The staff are excellent but the surroundings of the hotel are a little dicey.
