Lovely rain shower, well-appointed property, clean environment

The check-in experience lacked warmth!!! Charging for Wi-Fi in this age feels outdated, along with the unreliable Bose speaker in the room that only rebooted endlessly.

inattentive service

First off, accessing in-room dining proved to be a hassle. multiple calls without answers and a subsequent delivery of subpar food didn’t help. The wine service also missed the mark, with a clumsy pouring process and inattentive staff. Additionally, the first morning's cleaning staff entered unannounced while my partner was changing, which is a bit off-putting. Lastly, the key cards malfunctioned repeatedly throughout the stay, leading to unnecessary trips to reception.

I stayed in the Superior King Room and it was super comfy. The bed was really nice and cozy. The room was spacious and clean. The layout was modern and everything worked well, especially the shower. There were some neat extras like slippers and a robe. The only thing was the view didn’t wow me, but overall, I had a really good experience in the room.

Luxurious, Luxurious, Luxurious

I had the most delightful stay! The serene atmosphere made it a true escape, while my Classic Queen Room was fabulously decorated with a bed that felt like clouds. Plus, the staff surprised me with a little birthday treat—how sweet is that?

would love to come back here some time

The room was spacious with a comfortable king-sized bed and an amazing view of the botanical gardens. Had a walk-in shower, flat-screen TV, and mini bar stocked with treats. The fitness center was clean and equipped with all the machines you need. Staff service was outstanding, super friendly and helpful.

great value

Just a good pick for a swift visit in Wellington with extraordinarily good value for money. The bed was ridiculously comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep. Ask for a room on a higher floor for better views.
