This was ideal for what we needed in Wellington. Centrally located with the cable car within 300m meaning we could walk to the harbour side or catch the cable up to Zelandia & the botanical gardens. Loads of restaurants within a 10 minute stroll. Rooms large, comfortable & well equipped.

Spacious studio, with a very comfy bed, well stocked kitchenette and a good shower. Great central location that is perfect for a visit to the central city. Airport Express stops very close by for a quick easy ride. Sound wise… never heard a thing despite being in the thick of it all…. Perfect visit!
