We took advantage of a 'ditch the kids' deal and stayed at this lovely place on Saturday night. It's in a great location and is easy walking distance to the restaurants, bars and cinemas of Courtenay Place. The staff were friendly, helpful and unobtrusive. We enjoyed chatting with the owner over a late breakfast on the Sunday without feeling like... More

We stayed at Ohtel with our young daughter for a long weekend and what great experience. In a city like Wellington it is nice to come back in the evening to a warm, welcoming hotel. The room was beautifully furnished and I loved the lobby area which felt like you were staying in someones funky house. Breakfast was simple but... More

We had 3 nights in this Ohtel in April and loved everything about it. The staff were friendly and helpful, the location was fantastic and so close to shops and restaurants, the rooms were well equipped and we loved everything about it.

The location of the OHTEL can nor be beat. The view from our room with a balcony gave us fresh air and a wonderful entry spot into New Zealand. We were just minutes from the Te Papa museum, a grocery store and the waterfront was right out the door. The hotel is small and funky indeed but our room was... More

Ohtel is a super funky hotel right where you need to be in Wellington. It's right near the water and waterfront museum and a short walk to all the shopping and restaurants.

Having stayed in larger hotels previously this is areal find. Small and funky with modern and rooms and well decorated with high quality lined and beds it is delightful place to stay. The huge two person bath and excellent water pressure in the shower are also great. Brekafast in the lobby was nice and the coffee up to Wellington's very... More

This is a nice little boutique place to stay in Wellington, just a few minutes walk from the action. We received a warm welcome upon arrival, and were shown to our room with a view. We really liked the design and furnishings, definitely a differentiator for this place. There was also a great entertainment system in our room. If you're... More

Totally recommend this hotel. The mid-century furnishings were initially the draw card, and I wasn't disappointed. The rooms were cosy and retro with all the mod cons. Tivoli and iTunes music selection on the tv. Free wi-fi. Lots of bathroom accessories from condoms to lint brushes. The big plus was you can walk to city stores, restaurants and sites from... More

My husband and I have stayed in this wonderful boutique hotel twice now and would certainly go back each time we visit Wellington. It is right in the centre of Wellington, water views, and walking distance to all the sights, restaurants and shops. The staff are great, very friendly and made us feel very welcome and a part of the... More

If you are one of those people who likes to hang out in soulless, heartless bland hotels, where you are just a room number....don't stay here. If you don't like it when you walk downstairs, and someone who owns the place actually knows you name, don't stay here. If on the other hand you love it when the place is... More
