Pipitea2 nights8.4/10 - Very good (1,004 reviews)"My stay was extremely disappointing. Reception repeatedly ignored calls and never call you back — the phone rang more than ten times before they answer . Basic room essentials were missing, including coffee, milk, sugar, and body wash. This is unacceptable for any hotel standard, and the lack of service shows poor management and zero attention to guests’ needs."Reviewed June 3, 2026Return • Brisbane (BNE) - Wellington (WLG)BNE - WLG • Direct WLG - BNE • DirectAU$928AU$847found 1 day agoper traveller - Sofitel Wellington

Rydges Wellington Airport
"The Rydges is perfectly situated in the airport. Easy to get to inside from the airport. Room was clean and spacious. Price was ok, I managed to get it a little lower by going through a third party company but direct was a lot higher."
