We stayed in a motel room which we found to be clean, tidy and spacious. The location was fantastic - easy walking distance to the waterfront, Te Papa and Courtney Place.

My husband and I stayed with our young children for several nights in Autumn and enjoyed a comfortable clean unit that was conveniently close to Te Papa, the waterfront, restaurants etc. Unfortunately, the manner of one of the staff (I think it was the owner) was absolutely awful. Barely civil on the phone when booking, unfriendly at the outset, suspicious,... More

Most central accomodation in Wellington is hotels, the Apollo is a good location being close to Courtney Place but with the benefits of a motel (off street parking, kitchen, more space). We stayed in a lovely refurbished one bedroom unit but have also stayed in the Edwardian house which was lovely too.

We stayed in the apartments across the road from this hotel - but it is all part of the same complex. From the outside they don't look like much but they are immaculately clean and have excellent facilities. Despite the fact that it is almost on Courtenay Place with all of its bars and restaurants, it was also very quiet.... More

Excellent location, but quiet! Very newly refurbished 1 bedroom unit, spotlessly clean and tidy, very well equiped. Highly recommended if you need to ba at this end of the CBD. Very handy for the Welsh Dragon Bar, and only a short stumble to bed.

We stayed in the 3 bedroom cottage and while it was fine for 1 night I probably wouldn't recommend it for much longer. The floor felt like it had been in a large earthquake as it was uneven and in some places you felt like you were walking downhill to get from one room to another!

We were in Wellington for a night. The room was adequate and we were in a renovated unit which was neat, clean but seemed a little cramped. The location was fantastic right in the heart of town and we could walk to our pick up our car to start our travel up North. The service was adequate and value seemed... More

Stayed with my partner and parents in a family unit to attend concert in wellington and couldnt have asked for better. Prebooked and right from initial phone call the service was exemplary. Having had a good experience round 10 yrs ago I trusted the establishment but was blown away with the improvements. Brand new furnishings..spotlessly clean and ample of everything..including... More
