Great hotel

Always love staying here! Disappointed with the parking situation, first in, first served. In communications regarding parking, we should have been informed there was a function on for 3 days so there wouldnt be any parking available. Great clean room and comfy bed. Shower didnt stay at same temp, kept going hot and cold both evening and morning. Great view of harbour. Breakfast was held in another room due to function and there werent enough tables. Buffet had a great selection, very yummy!

Good hotel in great location

For a family group the room we chose, with one queen and two single beds was ideal. The room was tidy and clean. The location is very handy for the Te Papa end of Wellington too. Parking is available for a fee on a first come, first served basis.

When we asked for tourist info the first afternoon we had a terrifying walk through the red light area. Not safe- receptionist should not have sent us that way. Everything was a shambles. The special room we booked involved me sleeping in a dark part of the room with no windows - claustrophobic and no power points by my bed. Not great for luxury bay view room.
