Firstly, this hotel would have received 4 stars from me, but we were so disappointed in the Chameleon Restaurant it has had to lose a star (see my separate review on the restaurants own Trip Advisor entry). This hotel is nice and centrally located and the staff are helpful and friendly. I was told on check-in that my room had... More

Found the service here to be very friendly. From the moment we arrived we were greeted in a friendly polite manner which continued at the reception desk. Room was clean enough but dated. Air conditioning wasn't the best. We ordered room service which was delivered promptly but wasn't very hot. Breakfast was very good, with everything provided that we could... More

I found the hotel to be good value, service was a bit slack especially in the resturant for breakfast, no one to look after you, hard to flag down someone for a coffee, if you did get one, usually the oth person would miss out. Room was very clean and comfortable with a great view, watch out for the Russian... More

First time in this hotel. Platinum Ambassador. Was upgraded from harbour-view room to a suite but had to ask. Here for a week on business. Rooms clean, tidy, look 1990s. In-room dining made me evening meal request not on menu - very impressed. Club Lounge very small with glancing harbour views; modest evening canapes, no hot breakfast (but you can... More

I love this hotel, it is a luxury oasis in Wellington. The rooms are well appointed and the gym is great (that's important for me). All staff are discreet and respectful and I appreciate that too - however they are marvellously flexible and helpful. The hotel is located centrally, only a few hundred metres from shopping at either Lambton Quay... More

Very average service at check in. We booked a number if rooms in a frequent corporate group. A number of our rooms weren't ready at 2pm which reception didnt seem particularly concerned about. I returned a few hours later and my paperwork was lost and I had a long wait to recover my room key. Excellent location. Beds comfortable. I... More

The hotel rooms are tired and need a refresh but the size was good. Breakfast was great and reception service was good. Great gym - one of the better gyms I've seen in a hotel. A bit overpriced for the quality of the hotel. Great location.
