We loved this small hotel. The room (we actually had two, coming in a night earlier than expected) was attractive and funky - kind of industrial chic. Great bar downstairs and excellent location with easy access to some of Wellington’s livelier areas.

Amazing Staycation Destination

Amazing location just off the main part of Cuba St. The room was great and the beds were amazingly comfortable. Puffin Bar downstairs was also great; super cool vibe and great service. Absolutely amazing staycation destination.

Ideal Spot for Exploring Cuba St

The Intrepid Hotel in Wellington was a great base — right next to Cuba Street, so perfect for trying out different food and drink spots. The rooms were stylish and comfortable, and it had a nice laid-back feel that suited the area well.

Clean room, cool vibe. They offer free laundry which is awesome but there is only one washer and dryer so you may compete with others to use the laundry machine, especially if you are only staying for one night. It is otherwise well located (close to many shops and restaurants) and is attached to a cool bar. Check in and check out was easy. There is no parking at the hotel so we parked at a nearby lot called Hope Gibbons and it was reasonably priced and accessible.

The check in and check out process is a bit weird if you are not used to it but once you learn that after and before a certain time the front desk is not staffed and the keys are in a key box, it’s totally fine. The hotel itself is lovely and super central. Totally recommend
