Best Hotels in Wilton

Very close to Wellington Botanic Garden and Beehive. It is also very convenient to go to the station and the beach. The lady at the front desk is tall and beautiful, just like a tap dancer who dances the ”Dance of the River”. The decoration of the hotel is a bit retro.

My family and I had an excellent stay. The view was great, our room and our beds were so comfortable. There were plenty of towels for all of us to have showers. The only thing that could improve is the choice of food that is friendly for families, especially for children. But yes was an ideal one night stay.

It is very convenient to book for guests on Ctrip, but they can only be paid in the store. I called and asked about the email, and I gave the authorization letter to fill in the information and pay after leaving the store. The hotel is the best in Wellington.

The location is a 5-minute walk from the Prime Minister's Office. It is on a large slope. Self-driving parking uphill and starting side parking are all technical activities. The hall and room can only be said to be ok, after all, it is not a fashionable hotel, although some desks and sofas have a light luxury style (pay attention to professional habits). Breakfast order + buffet, my evaluation is only passable, fried rice is okay. I met a Taiwanese girl in the service, and she was very enthusiastic. Take the initiative to bring us water, after all, there is no water in the room. Taxi is easy to take, and many restaurants close early on Labor Day. But I learned the local Meituan of Uber eats. Compared with the domestic advanced driving and running, it is not an electric motorcycle. After all, there are fewer people running. Opposite the parking lot is public. The hotel opposite has a swimming pool.

I can only say that had I read other reviews on here I would not have booked this place and for the price we paid (near $200 pn) it was by far the worst we had during our six weeks in NZ. Room was not as advertised, carpet was old, worn and stained and had not been vacuumed. Only one sofa and mini table for eating on - room would not fit anything bigger. On arrival we noticed sink was filthy and benches had not been cleaned. Stovetop and oven were also both dirty. Had to do clean it myself (when I complained after we left, was told everything was clean, yeah, well I cleaned the bench tops and stovetop). Bed was OK but sheets were unironed and whilst they might have been clean certainly had not been commercially laundered, more likely just washed and dried in the provided washing machine/dryer. We also found wet sheets in the washing machine (and no, I don’t believe the manager’s story that the previous guest left them there - more likely the owner who uses the place during the week). Shower leaked water all over the floor, no bath mat provided, hand towel and face cloths were thin and stained (fit for rags). Paintwork was dreadful, could see where bits had been patched and colour painted over with white. Whole place needs renovating (manager said it was 20 years old, yeah, well it should be being rented out at the price). As an added insult I asked the owner/manager via intercom, if we could leave our bags and collect later. He said yes, cleaner would collect and take them to the office (which was not open even thought this when it was advertised as being open). Double checked he would be there on our return as we could not ring him. On return manager was not there (again when office was supposed to be open), so, fortunately we kept the key and found our bags still in the room. Manager denied this conversation and reckons he said we just leave the bags in the room and take our key with us. What he said was nothing like what he says he said. As I could not discuss any of these issues with the manager before I left, I contacted him afterwards asking for a partial refund ,but he refused, simply offering a free night in the future (an empty promise as he knew we were from overseas and probably won’t be back, and it would be easy forget or not honour the offer anyway.)

We stayed in a very spacious studio apartment on the 7th floor. With a view down Lambton Quay (road) . The bedroom could be partitioned off if one wanted to go to bed and one stay up. Most of the time we had the partition open which made the room much bigger. Large bathroom with bath/shower. Kitchenette was adequate, with a dining table in the lounge. Very close to bus stops, with lots of routes including the airport bus ($4.50). Restaurants/bars/shops close to hotel. Staff very helpful. Wifi was being upgraded while we stayed. Good value for money. Only area that let the hotel down was the entrance on Lambton Quay and lifts which were shabby. Reception on level 3 which is the Terrace (road) entrance. Would definitely stay again when in Wellington.

Cost-effective service is very good, mainly value convenient parking, taxi to the city is also very cheap and convenient

I always enjoy my stay here:-), such a lovely lady at the desk!

This was the greatest hotel I have ever stayed in. I'm over 'same same' hotels and marvelled at the grandness of the Wellesley. Of course, you can get 'grand' at lots of places but none have the class, history and location of this place. It was especially enjoyable because I am a Kiwi and value the heritage but I also loved the elegance of the staircase, opulent drapes, the timeless oak panelling, the well-placed wingback chairs, the high ceilings and ornamental plasterwork. On top of this, the hotel is right in the middle of the city, has a (welcome after a cold day) bath and possibly the whitest, fluffiest towels in the history of towels. It was quiet with a marvellously comfortable bed (with chocolates on the pillows no less). The staff were gracious and clearly have high expectations of cleanliness as it was spotless.

Great location and very friendly and helpful staff. Check in was a breeze, and we were allocated a room as requested, in a quiet zone of the hotel. Although on a steep hill, the elevator down the street level was a bonus. After a long day, we used the room service and can highly recommend the Haloumi Burger for something different. But please have a Club Sandwich on the menu in the future. The bed was terrific and we had a great sleep. Breakfast (included in our room tariff) was great. A take away container of fresh fruit offered was a nice bonus. Will I/We stay here again? Yes. Sure will.
