    “I absolutely loved the design and decor, clearly somebody thought long and hard about this. The lighting was perfect, the tone was sublime, great shower, and a little radio by the bed was great. It was those little things that made it so great: The elevator up was so funky, the entrance halls to each floor were wonderful and what a great idea to have the coffee and tea making facilities there. Definitely would highly recommend. The location was perfect too”

    “I didn't have any breakfast but the location is so perfect. A real bonus is both the lovely relaxing lobby area as well as the bar downstairs, it's the favourite bar of a lot of Wellingtonians and so I ended up there regularly! The service is also very personalised and there's huge attention to detail.”

    “Really cool, quirky, comfortable hotel room with everything you need for a relaxing weekend in Wellington. Great location less than a minute’s walk from Cuba Street and still very quiet (we were on the third floor at the back of the building) - we could even hear the birds singing in the morning! Staff were helpful and welcoming. We’ll definitely return if we have the opportunity.”
