Great location, great having 24 hour front desk as we arrived from Australia around 3am. With shops right at your door most things are in walking distance.

The City Life was a great place to stay. Staff were so helpful and friendly, room was spacious, clean and super quiet considering it is in central Wellington. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate, plenty of towels, the list goes on. My friend who was with me booked to stay there again in a couple of months and I have recommended it to other friends and family.
