Very clean room, had all amenities outlined. The area was quiet and easy access to tram to Zealandia and Botanical Garden. Easy walk to waterfront and about 15 minutes to Cuba Street. I would definitely stay here again. I found the staff not very friendly.

Really nice Quest. Modern, well secured, and great location. The staff are really helpful and lovely as well. The only thing I'm marking it down for is the parking. The instructions provided were really good, but the facility.. the turns are atrocious and I scraped my sedan trying to get around one of them. I would advise unless you have a compact, to maybe sort other parking

Friendly, welcoming professional staff, quiet hotel and rooms that look relatively new - location is top knotch in the middle of town between shops - also near a Chemist warehouse and a Woolworths supermarket. An easy 15min walk to Wellington Train Station for regular walkers and also to the Cable Car station. The room is well stocked, super comfy bed and very handy to have a washer and dryer in it. Could not fault this place - it’s secure and safe with room swipe card access only - so much better than what I expected and definitely highly recommend !!

Friendly staff, nice room, good amenities. There was one area in the bedroom that was “sticky”, like gum had been on the carpet. We were too busy to worry about it and just covered the small area with a tissue. TV choices were limited and instructions on how to use your Netflix account was nothing like I’ve seen before. It would be nice to have explanation available in the room.

Had everything you need if you wanted to prepare a meal or do laundry. If you are parking there beware that it is quite tight to get into. We had an 8 seater Kia and it was difficult getting in and out of the car park.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This hotel is very convenient to the waterfront, cable car and shopping/restaurants. Everything is walkable. We had a studio room, and having the washer/dryer in the room was nice. With all that said, there is no lobby in this hotel, and “reception” is literally a desk on the 4th floor. You literally have to follow a two page set of instructions provided by the hotel in order to park and then find your way back to the hotel. It’s not easy. Lastly, by 3:30pm, our room still had not been made up. After calling the desk they did bring us fresh towels and emptied our garbage. The service could have been much better.
