Copthorne Hotel Wellington, Oriental Bay
Best part is location, comfortable beds and excellent shower! Rooms are very old and had some sort of old smell. No air conditioning in the room.

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
