Good hotel, if dated a little. The suite was spacious and well laid out, although the elevated shower could be hazardous to some. The inclusion of a washer and dryer is a huge bonus. Location is not central but walkable to the main touristy things - plenty of food and dining options nearby.

The Te Papa museum is a must when visiting Wellington with a trip up the cable car (a return ticket 9 dollars) but the views are fantastic. Cuba street have independent shops and a vibrant night life.
