FAQs about hotels in Wellington









Wild and Wonderful Welly

Acclaimed for its thriving art, film and cultural scene, windy ‘Welly’ is enclosed by mountains such as Kaukau and Victoria on one side and the picturesque Wellington Harbour on the other. Wellington has the distinction of being the world’s southernmost capital city.

As the gateway to New Zealand’s magical south island, Queens Wharf is headquarters for ferry services across Cook Strait as well as in the direction of Eastbourne on the other side of the harbour.

Get your bearings by using the Kelburn cable car that starts at Lambton Quay and travels up to the Botanic Gardens and Carter Observatory with its sweeping views across the Miramar Peninsula and local bays.

Don’t miss a visit to New Zealand’s national museum, Te Papa, which also incorporates the National Art Gallery. Cuba Street offers a multicultural touch and includes the Wellington Night Market with an array of international cuisines. Ascot Street is a lively shopping precinct.

Wellington Airport has flights to other domestic destinations as well as Australia and Fiji. Booking.com can help you choose your hotel to round off a fantastic city trip vacation.

    Fun vibrant city easy access to all attractions by foot around the central city, easy bus trip to local beaches or walking distance in the main city area. Airport within 10 min drive to central city. Local parks easy drive or walk or bus. If staying in the city great shopping and local restaurants are easy to access. Local pools are on hand and only a small trip via car or bus. Local supermarkets are handy and have everything you require. Great local pubs and bars for a night out on the town all within walking distance to you accommodation if staying in town. Loads to do in Wellington like visiting the Bee hive, cable car, Te papa, local markets, local gardens, and much much more. Loads of free stuff to do also (we visited the Marvel event being held in wellington). Wellington is the place to visit for a weekend away with friends, short holiday with the kids you won’t be disappointed. Do your research before you go and plan your trip as there is so much to see. Have fun and enjoy Wellington.

    Bus rides and train rides are awesome, just get yourself a Snapper card and more than one person can travel with that one card. Only one person can travel on that card on trains. Travelling in bus was also good, no hassle to driving or parking, bus service are almost everywhere till late nights and safe environments.

    We thought Wellington was a beautiful City.

    We thought Wellington was a beautiful City. We were there in late March. The weather was lovely and cool, just the right temperature if you like to explore a new location on foot. The bus system in the City is brilliant. The Metlink public transport card system can be a little intimidating but once you master it, it works exceptionally well. Otherwise, you can pay cash when travelling on the buses or trains, but it is quite significantly more expensive to pay this way. Also, it pays to check out the fare before you travel and have the correct money when getting on because nearly everyone uses the prepaid Metlink card so the driver has limited change. The seafood in New Zealand is the best in the world in my opinion. If you are staying centrally and have cooking facilities, I would recommend the Seafood Market in Lambton Quay or Cuba Street. It is not a huge shop but the fish comes in daily. Their fish and chips are pretty good as well. But there are plenty of seafood restaurants around that serve great food. Wellington is a a gorgeous city and reminded me very much of San Francisco.

    Visited Te Papa Museum, Wellington Museum, Botanic Gardens...

    Visited Te Papa Museum, Wellington Museum, Botanic Gardens and Portrait Gallery, all free access and excellent. Also took Cable Car (as you do) but the walk to and from Botanic Gardens is relatively easy as well. Went to Te Papa Museum and spent the entire day there - excellent. Ate at the Crab Shack and had the best meal in our entire NZ 2 week holiday - unfortunately, it was closed for 2 out of the 3 days we were in Wellington or we would have been back.

    I’m an ex Wellington resident so I know the town and this place is an excellent central location, a short stroll/walk to everywhere. It was a standard quest apartment which is to say it’s a well appointed and serviced modernish apartment. It’s in the back of the old bank building which is a central landmark in Wellington. Pretty much the heart of the city.

    Really central in Wellington, walking distance to tasty restaurants and a short walk to the waterfront. Really quirky hotel, love the vibes it's really cool. Rooms are really small so don't expect a large space, it was tight with all of our luggage but they use the space really well - very NYC vibes througout the hotel and in the room.

    This is a good hotel for us to stay overnight to attend events in Wellington city. It's clean and the beds are comfortable. It's not 5star, and could use some refurbishment, but for the cost, which includes breakfast, it's good value. We've stayed before and will stay again
