The room was clean, the staff is fantastic, the location is perfect. Easy access to Lambton Quay for buses, restaurants, shops, the cable car station to ride up for great scenic views and proximity to the observatory. A couple of blocks to waterfront for ferry rides, museums, restaurants, and shops. Definitely coming back on our next visit to Wellington.
