Good location in Wellington. We stayed in museum apartment room. However the rooms are tired, chipped and old, shower had broken attachment. there is no double glazing and noise from traffic was terrible. Bed/mattress was old, bouncy and no topper, uncomfortable night sleep. No coffee maker which is unusual at this price. No robe etc. pool is ok but hot tub was cold. Staff on check in unfortunately not welcoming … basic level of service. This hotel has gone downhill in past 10 years and needs updates if it wants to stay competitive. We would not choose to book again since much better available elsewhere .

The bathtub was not clean.

The bathtub was not clean. Sauna was not opened. I was looking for staying there because of the sauna and bathtub at the hotel. However the sauna was not opened and the bathtub was not clean I was really disappointed. Glass cup also looked dirty too. I stayed the king bedroom. The location was really good. The room was partial ocean view and big enough looked really nice.

Wouldn’t stay at the property again. Staff was not helpful, room is very run down, the tv had 4 channels that barely work spoke to the staff and they told me was nothing they could do. The room facilities does not meet the qualmark start rating. Doesn’t worth the money I paid.

As a family we loved the art in the foyer and that it was right across the road from Te Papa. The beds were comfortable. Our only negative was that the shower floods through the bathroom and the tv is outdated with only having access to sky. It was great having a washer/dryer
