Disclaimer: A drop-down section requires that you enter a date of stay. It only goes back one year. Our stay was in March 2009, NOT October 2010. Tired of staying in the Cuba Quarter (as we had on previous visits), we wanted someplace quieter, yet within walking distance to town, and near to our friend who lives in Hataitai. This... More

My wife and I stayed at Austinvilla for five days of our honeymoon. It is a quiet, comfortable B&B halfway up the hillside of Mount Victoria, just a few minutes' walk from Wellington's bustling downtown. We loved it there; the Garden Suite has a private entrance and is entirely self-contained. It became our own little retreat, and we were very... More

This is a wonderful little B&B which feels more like a boutique hotel. We were made very welcome and the breakfast was fantastic (see photo). We stayed in the studio which was small, but perfectly appointed, with everything you might need. The design is beautiful and tasteful, making it a lovely place to relax. Austinvilla is in a quiet area,... More

My partner Sebastian and I used the Austinvilla Bed and Breakfast as a base for our week-long stay in Wellington to visit family and friends - and what a great base it was. Located about five minutes walk from the heart of Wellington's restaurant and bar scene, the guesthouse is ideally located. It's on a short, but steep, hill, which... More

We spent 3 nights in Austinvilla in January 2009 while in Wellington visiting friends. We stayed in the self contained garden suite. Located a short walk from the city and oriental bay (the harbour) - this is a great place to stay in Wellington. It is a wonderful old Victorian wooden house with character and the rooms are tastefully decorated... More

Austinvilla is a lovely B&B in the heart of Wellington. A great selection of bars and restaurants are all reached within a 5/10 minute walk and the Te Papa museum and harbour are only a few minutes on from that. We had a self contained one bedroom apartment which had it's own entrance from a small garden, also for our... More

Austinvilla is a gem of a boutique B&B in Wellington which is located a perfect distance away from the hub-hub of downtown and a short (but strenuous uphill) walk from the summit of Mt Victoria. Gorgeous, stylish furnishings, a beautiful view, delicious breakfast and a serene atmosphere make it a great choice for a romantic getaway. We stayed for only... More

We hadn't found the Austinvilla on Trip Advisor so were flying blind, but we were absolutely not sorry to have flown there. We were delighted by every aspect of this B and B apartment, from the location (a bit away from the crush of Wellington's vibrant downtown "scene", but only a short walk apart), to the accomodating, knowledgeable hosts, to...
