Rooms were standard and clean, location fair but none of it justified the price or the terrible service. Unfriendly, unhelpful, staff. On arriving and being extremely tired, we were told there were no parking spaces available but that we could park on street till 8am. This was incorrect it was 6am and although we should have checked we did not... more

We only had one evening to experience Wellington. The hotel is situated in the downtown area, so in the early evening hours most businesses were closed. It is within about a 10 -15 minute walking distance to Cuba St. where an electic mix of restaurants, nightlife, and shops are situated. The hotel was very busy during our stay, a couple... more

My sister and I arrived later than expected on the Overlander so were rather tired on arrival, but we received a very warm welcome. We were pleased to see the hotel provided a 24 hr bar and food service, so we enjoyed a drink and a light meal. Our twin room had 2 queen beds (better than the expected singles!)... more

Three of us stayed here 2 nights while in Wellington. We arrived in Wellington at about 8am on a Sunday morning and were allowed to check-in immediately (contacted the Ibis prior to arrival). While the room was very small, it is only one of the few affordable hotels that I could find in Wellington that would allow 3 people to... more

We stayed at the Ibis for one night, and were disapointed. We found the room to be VERY small and pokey, and the bathroom was hardly big enough to turn around in, and had a view from our window into a brick wall. Admittedly we did stay in the cheapest twin room available, so not sure what the other rooms... more

Without knowing what room you were in I cannot comment on the room size as our rooms do range in size depending on what bedding configuration you require. Thank you also for letting me know about the service by my staff at the hotel, I...

We stayed two nights in this hotel on our way to catch a ferry to g to Picton. This hotel is right in the middle of a busy street, walking distance to the entrance to the Wellington Cable Car, and the Queen's wharf. It's a busy street, shopping being the key activity there. Shops close early, though. There are plenty... more

Stopped here whilst touring the country. Found the staff welcoming at check-in, and friendly at breakfast. The room was comfortable (perhaps lacking in character). Location wise; the hotel is perfect for the local attractions of the Cable-Car museum and Botanical Gardens in one direction, and the magnificent Te Papa museum in the other. All in all - a very pleasant... more
