Hotels With breakfast in Wellington Region, New Zealand

The staff were very friendly, welcoming & very efficient. They took the time to go out of their way to make us comfortable. The lift & room was just a little bit older around the edges, but still very good! The bed was heavenly-soft & lovely, we just wish we'd had time to rest & relax more than one night in Wellington!

Stayed one night at James Cook Hotel Grand Chancellor for a conference held onsite. Check-in staff were friendly and efficient. The hotel has three separate lift banks servicing different areas — if you’re unfamiliar with Wellington, definitely ask staff to explain the easiest exit route to the city. It makes a big difference. Breakfast was a very large buffet with plenty of options, though I’ve experienced better quality elsewhere. The hotel itself is older but has solid bones. Perfectly adequate for a work overnight stay. For personal travel I’d probably choose somewhere with more atmosphere, however it felt safe and comfortable. One odd feature: some rooms face an internal terrace/window area — remember to close your curtains as people can see straight in. Bed was clean and well made, the room was tidy, though the carpet is showing its age. The shower had excellent pressure and plenty of hot water — a highlight. Overall: reliable, practical conference accommodation rather than a destination stay.

The room itself was great, and we had a wonderful stay! The front desk staff were very friendly. Plus, they offer free milk – a nice touch! The location is excellent too; it's very close to the highway exit, super near the Old Bank, and also close to the beach. Considering the price and our experience, it was fantastic! There were four of us, and while the room was a bit small, it was perfectly acceptable. And the fact that parking is free for a long time is just amazing!

Location-wise, it's right by Wellington train station, making it a great choice if you're arriving by train or heading to London. Facilities: They're quite old. The air conditioning was one of those large, vintage units I'd never seen before, and it was incredibly noisy, so I just turned it off. The room had a microwave and cutlery, and surprisingly, a mini-bar – which you usually don't find in hotels at this price point. However, there was a snag: no price list for the mini-bar. While I knew the bottled water in the fridge wouldn't be free, I was still surprised to be charged $7 upon checkout (when a similar bottle is around $2.50 at the supermarket). Service: The downstairs restaurant has long operating hours. I was able to order a delicious burger after a late check-in, and grab a coffee and a pastry to go during an early checkout. Most of my positive impression comes from that restaurant.

The room is actually not as big as the picture, but the sanitation is very good. The front desk is very friendly and always provides the help you need. On the first day, I gave me a map of the city. After 2 days, I measured the seaside streets and piers with my feet. It is even more friendly for passengers taking the Airport Express AX. Under the intersection of Manners Street and Willis Street, walk south on the right hand side of the uphill road. Tea and coffee tubes are enough, and chocolate. I can't drink coffee anymore, I drink chocolate, and the hotel also prepared a large cup for me intimately. Very close to Cuba Street, in fact, not far from where to go. When I left, Beth happened to be off work, went home and drove BYD, took me to the airport, and turned a corner to see the filming place of the Lord of the Rings. Really friendly. If I go to Wellington again, I will definitely choose their home.

Really conveniently located hotel and good sized room. Really lovely helpful, staff on reception. I had booked an interior room with no window so was pleasantly surprised to have a ceiling skylight. Unfortunately the surfaces and amenities (kettle, glasses, spoons) were covered in dust. I thought it might be a ventilation issue as the high window probably doesnt open, but when I ran my finger over the desk it was a thick layer so not sure it had been cleaned for a while. I was only staying one night so didn't bother complaining but did start wheezing in the night so wish I had said something. Easily fixed for future guests with proper dusting!

This hotel has a fantastic design; it's very unique and stylish. The color scheme is absolutely beautiful. Plus, it was great value for money this time around. I hope they'll have more promotions in the future because I'd definitely stay here again and recommend it to my friends. A really excellent experience! The front desk staff were incredibly warm and responsible.

Location: Excellent. The restaurant offers direct sea views, and it's only a 5-minute walk to the Wellington logo and a large supermarket. Service: No one helped with luggage. Facilities: The washing machine in the room was broken, and the staff seemed helpless about it – it was truly awful, as I booked this hotel specifically for the convenience of doing laundry. The air conditioner in the bedroom is a Mitsubishi wall-mounted unit, which is incredibly noisy and blows directly onto one of the beds, making it impossible to sleep. It gets quite cold if you don't turn it on at night. Cleanliness: The lighting in the room was a bit dim, but otherwise acceptable. However, every time I picked up a plate or cup at the restaurant, there were small black particles of dust floating on them. Breakfast: Each person can order one main dish. On weekdays, the buffet selection is limited, but it's much richer on weekends with several hot dishes.

The hotel wall is very thin, you can hear everything from the next room. We hardly laugh or talk freely because we concern we might interrupt other people. The amenities is just old in overall (might consider to replaced now), the shower is not good too, we were surprise this hotel is part of Accor which is really concerning as one’s of the customer who like staying at Accor group from times to times. The buffet breakfast is quiet sad (we are not complaining about the option because it seems to be fit the price we paid for) but a cold ham that taste like it have been there for 2 days ago? I think we at least deserved a fresh ham… and also the condiments at breakfast like ketchup and mustard?? They are mostly empty and looking very dirty ( worst that food court). The staffs on the other hand is friendly and do the job right.

Especially good, the boss is also good, gave a lot of help. The hotel is clean and strategically located. At the door are KFC and McDonald's, as well as large supermarkets. Very convenient.
