James Cook Hotel Grand Chancellor

Rydges Wellington
"This is an ok hotel. But don't advertise parking then say no we don't have any and we cldnt accommodate a ute anyway. We booked here as they advertised parking. Also fix the power sockets so they don't hang out of the wall and most modern hotels have USB plugs. This hotel doesn't."

"This was the 2nd time I have stayed here this trip. Great starting/ ending point if you are taking the Ferry. Make sure you contact the hotel if you think that you will arrive late."

InterContinental Wellington by IHG
"It's not the best hotel we've ever stayed at, but it's definitely the best in Wellington. Comfortable, clean rooms with nice view of the harbour. Byredo products were a nice touch. Good service, excellent food and drinks. Wish the TVs would have been Smart TVs with Netflix/Disney etc as it was weird ..."

Oaks Wellington Hotel
"Clean room. Convenient location. Unfortunately minimal parking and first come first serve so highly inconvenient if you book with free parking because they won’t hold it for you. Nearest parking is paid $$ and expensive. Staff weren’t very helpful"
