Top Kenepuru Hotel Reviews

James Cook Hotel Grand Chancellor

8/10 Good

"It was many years since I last stayed at the James Cook. Excellent lactation for quick access to Lambton Quay. The rooms can do with updating and refurbishment of the bathroom."

Bolton Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed the well appointed room, it had everything a business traveler might need. I appreciated how quiet the room was, super comfy bed and good water pressure in the shower. Lovely staff, very friendly and helpful. Decent hotel gym, and it was good to have an informal cafe downstairs and a fancier restaurant upstairs. Thank you for a very pleasant if too brief stay."

Travelodge Hotel Wellington

8/10 Good

"Great location, Wellington is very hilly which I had no idea so chose a taxi whenever I had my suitcase & on my departure ordered me a taxi which turned up quickly, considering it was 6am. The staff were really helpful, the heating wasn't great in my room so the gentleman on reception provided me with a heater which was much appreciated. Had breakfast on my 1st morning it was good, as expected for a hotel. The room was a good size, had loads of space and 3 huge windows. And I was treated to a complimentary bottle of wine when I arrived, which was lovely."

Copthorne Hotel Wellington Oriental Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Easy to get in and out. Super close to New World and city centre for food. Restaurant on site was over priced and the tap beer wasn't great. TV channels had major interference with weather so couldn't watch TV. Bit disappointing. Shower must be set on a temp as I had it as hot as it would go and it wasn't hot enough. All in all, great stay."

Museum Apartment Hotel, Independent Collection by EVT

10/10 Excellent

"My stay couldn’t have gone better. The staff were all very courteous, and attentive. My flight landed a bit early for check-in and while I dropped my bags off the staff at the front desk was able to get my room turned over remarkably quickly for me which was very appreciated after a long flight. I had one small issue with the laundry in my room and they had their maintenance team take care of it while I was out for the day. I would highly recommend staying here! Also the location was absolutely perfect, easy to walk to just about anywhere downtown."
