“Convenient Location in Central Wellington”

Reviewed 18 May 2013 NEW

We arrived in Wellington on a Saturday night for a two night stay at the Amora Hotel. We had no car as we planed to spend time in the city. The Amora is ideally situated for walking access to city shops, cafes and restaurants nearby and Te Papa Museum a short distance away. Our room was on the 7th floor.... More

“Excellent amenities & great location”

Reviewed 16 May 2013 NEW

Our group of 3 friends stayed here for a weekend. The room was well appointed, modern & very clean. Beds were doubles which were a bit cosy for 2 friends, but the length of them were very decent - especially considering we are tall! Bathroom was a good size, well maintained & very clean. Only very minor complaint was the... More

“Position Position Position!”

Reviewed 15 May 2013 NEW

We stayed four nights here to go to the historic first Anzac Day AFL game. We booked several months prior (as soon as the game was announced) and got an extremely good deal, staying in a Club Suite. The room was enormous (looks like when upgrading the building, they had knocked two suites into one) and we had a separate... More

Dear Heather and Ray H, I was delighted to read your review, and hope that you enjoyed the game! Perhaps your experience will entice you to make a return visit to us here in Wellington in the near future. Regards, Liam Craughwell, General Manager More

“Great hotel in the heart of the city”

Reviewed 13 May 2013 via mobile

We stayed just the one night in a double twin room (group of 3). Room was tidy, clean and well appointed. Considering it is literally in the middle of the city, with a great harbour view, the hotel represents good value for money. Extra requests such as an ice bucket, tooth paste and a couple of other bits and pieces... More

Dear Knight006, Your feedback is much appreciated and I was pleased to read that you enjoyed your stay and rated our hotel as 'good value for money' (I do apologise for your experience with the attentions of the security guard however)! We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Regards, Liam Craughwell, General Manager More

“Pleasant hotel with good location”

Reviewed 29 April 2013

Spent two nights in the Amora Hotel in Wellington - very clean and quiet, with attentive service and outstanding location very near the CBD, the waterfront and Cuba Street. Bathrooms a little dated, but work well enough. Only possible downside was requesting a room with a view - as the hotel does look over the harbour - and wound up... More

This hotel is excellently placed for the entertainment in Wellington; very close to Courtney Place. The rooms are a good size and well appointed. While the bathrooms are a little dated, they still have a standalone shower, which I much prefer to some hotels with smaller bathrooms and an over the bath shower. The hotel has a small gym with...

We loved this hotel and would like to have stayed longer. The room was modern, very spacious with the largest bed ever, and a spectacular view over the harbour.
