straightforward check in process and parking on site under CCTV surveillance was great. Room was comfortable and opened out onto deck with great views of the harbour. Surprisingly not noisy given the location right at the start of oriental parade.

Reception was there during late time so we could stay after ferry :)
Room was clean and bed comfy. Location - central for those who values it. For us with a car is was rather inconvenient. Minimalistic kitchen, but I'm grateful it was available.

We stayed at the Apollo which was an easy walk into town.
We stayed at the Apollo which was an easy walk into town. Buses to areas out of the city seemed pretty regular. Wellington is a pretty switched on city, with a creative energy and plenty of things to enjoy. Cuba St which is pedestrians only has plenty of cafes and restaurants and the food is top notch. Our favourites for dinner were Loretta’s, Olive, Mr Go’s. Icecream and Creaming sodas at Duck Island, coffees at Pickle and Pie, Cheese Scones beautiful pastries and coffee at Myrtle’s. Some good clothing shops, also recycling shops where there was really good clothing for sale at low prices, good bookstores. A must visit is Te Papa Museum - Level 4 Māori and Pacific Island history is impressive. The museum’s shop is also worth checking out. The lobby of QT Hotel (there’s a golden hippo on the hotel’s exterior) - you don’t need to be a guest to wander in to view the lobby area which includes a magnificent private art collection and a ritzy bar. Plenty of bars with music and Sunday Farmers Market on the waterfront was bustling with plenty of fruit and vegetables along with brunch food and coffee available.

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.
My stay at the Mercure Hotel in Wellington over the Easter period was an absolute delight. The hotel's prime location allowed for easy exploration of the city, providing a perfect balance of convenience and tranquility. The room exceeded my expectations, offering comfort and luxury that enhanced my holiday experience. Every detail, from the tasteful decor to the attentive service, was tailored to ensure a memorable stay. It was truly a home away from home, and I couldn't have asked for more from my Easter getaway.
Wonderful accommodation with everything you need. Great size room with a large ensuite. Very hospitable couple who were so friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Accommodation is close to airport and city. Cleanliness+++++++
Lovely breakfast with a view. Cereal, yogurt, fruit salad. Toast and eggs with a hash brown. Cooked for you with a friendly smile at time requested. Beautiful little touches like the heater was turned on in your room when we got back in the evening.
The hotel is in the best location in Wellington. It’s a good value for money. The room and the bathroom are clean, the beds are comfortable, and there is Wi-Fi everywhere in the hotel.
I would recommend this hotel to anyone who’s looking for a place to stay that’s close to the center of Wellington and who doesn't want to spend a fortune.
and there are some people book cheap hotel expect (five star service), I am not that guest, I love what I pay for and I appreciate it.
Really central location- Te Papa museum was only a 5 minute walk, with the same sort of distance to eateries/bars on Cuba St & Courtney Place. Comfortable large bed. Sky Movies included on TV. Good choice for breakfast, including continental and cooked.
Probably only 15 spaces in the hotel car park, but loads more in the public car park just across the back driveway (back entrance for unloading is 25 Bond St, Wellington for satnav).
Location was brilliant. We were going to Kinky boots at St James and its right next door. Airport bus almost stops right outside door to as do buses for zoo. Irish pub Jack Hackett is on opposite corner and has great food and entertainment. Easy walking distance to everything in Wellington city. Reception staff are very friendly and helpful. Comfy bed, good shower pressure. Small window but nice enough view over to bay.
Room was small, clean & cozy as expected but had a very comfortable Bed / Pillows. Good in-room tea / coffee facilities with its own Shower and would choose this room type again. View of the historic Wellington Train Station was a bonus. Great City Location, handy to Cook Strait Ferry's and local Buses / Trains. Have stayed at Hotel Waterloo on previous occasions and love the buildings Art Deco Charm.
location was fantastic, right next to sky stadium where we were traveling for a sporting event and also the main train station. an easy walk from wellington city center as well.
the facilities were great and the rooms were very clean and modern. two adjoining apartments were a great option for a family. the staff was extremely helpful, too.
Well-equipped. Located near the harbourfront, in the citycenter, next to the Willis Street, it was a great location. Elevator available via the garage to access the street or hotel to avoid the stairs. With the Airport Express Bus, you are from/to the Wellington Airport within 20 to 30 minutes.
The location of the hotel was so handy and was in walking distance of many of Wellington's main attractions and city centre. Check in/out was a breeze and the staff were lovely and made this process very easy. The room was clean and tidy and had a fresh feel about it.
Perfect cheap night in wellington before catching ferry. Centrally located and a five min drive to the ferry port. You know what you’re getting with an ibis but much more worth it than staying in a hostel. Comfy beds and a secure car park which is really useful.
The hotel has a pleasant reading and relaxing area and this area is adjacent to the bar which closes at 9pm. There is free street parking after hours and the hotel is within walking distance to the core of the city and restaurants etc. It is an old-charm venue.
Walking distance to all the central city points of interest. Modern fixtures & fittings. Great shower, comfortable bed. Nice little touches like complimentary soft drinks, sweets & chocolates left in your room on a regular basis. How many hotels do that???
Location was perfect right in city amongst restaurants. Staff amazing. Very clean. Bar and restaurant in hotel was awesome with great vibes, awesome cocktails and we loved the food. Great menu!!! Staff so helpful cheerful and friendly.
Repeat customer we don't stay anywhere else in Wellington except Copthorne Oriental Bay. Everything available in Hotel - and location for walking - city attractions - public transport - taxi- right outside the door
Our room was great with an amazing view. We had an amazing view of the city and harbor. The hotel is nice and close to the Interisland ferry terminal which was a bonus.
We liked the Room, The shower was good the room was very nice and quiet and the location was excellent. If you want to explore Wellington CBD this is a great Hotel
Great location. Central to all the shops and all the city attractions. Hotel not your normal run of mill establishment. Wellesley has character and soul.
