Copthorne Hotel Oriental Bay Wellington
Convenient location. Staff pleasant, professional and extremely helpful - going the extra mile to assist. Rooms and facilities clean and well maintained. A wider menu selection for meals would have been appreciated.

Rydges Wellington
Still in the process of new owners taking over, so for example can’t accept Amex yet. Most things remain the same - lots of opportunities for new owners to improve, from a fairly average spa with only a few jets working for 3 minutes at a time, to noisy rooms with average aircon. Breakfast very overpriced ...
