The hotel provided an affordable yet reasonably comfortable base from which to explore the city. The staff at the reception were also friendly and helpful. Location is pretty good, close to Mt Victoria and Cuba Street, the heart of Wellington. Might be a challenge to lug luggage to the doorsteps if you're not driving. The lift looks somewhat old, repairs... More

We booked this motel due to its convenient location and reasonable cost. We were very impressed with the welcome that Mark gave us upon our arrival and also the fact that parking was free. The rooms have been recently renovated and were very clean. We were on the second floor and had a good outlook of the city. We were... More

Stayed on fifth floor overlooking wellington suburbs. Due to re plastering of front and side of building couldn`t get a room overlooking harbour as scaffolding etc blocking view. Room was clean and tidy with modern updated bathroom. Bed was an older bed and a little firm for my liking but a very quiet and warm room. Mark the manager/owner was... More

We were on the 5th (top) floor and indeed it had a capital view of the capital. The room (an upgrade) was very spacious and well-equipped and there was parking for the car. The owner/manager, Mark, was very welcoming and helpful, and Cuba Street (the main restaurant area) was about 5 minutes walk away. I thought this was all fine... More

We had 3 nights in this hotel at the end of a 10 day trip around north island. Had booked a queen studio room as it was all that was available at the time, however by this stage of our trip we were feeling the need for some space (couple with an older child) and so we took the penthouse... More

3 night stay mid-March 2nd floor (requested higher but not available. Located in Bohemian section close to Cuba street; so access to a wide range of types of restaurants & shops. 15 -20 minute walk to harbor. Furnishings outdated & a bit worn looking, making the place feel a bit less clean than otherwise.. Requested king-only bed but found 1... More

Wellington is expensive and finding a place with parking is impossible. So Captial View has a couple of bonuses. A group of 4 friends we had a family unit which was clean with everything we required. The building is old but the rooms seem to have been renovated recently. We arrived on Easter weekend which meant the lift only worked... More

My husband and I stayed here for two nights during a trip around the North Island. It was covered in scaffolding when we arrived but the owner had kindly moved us into a bigger room at no extra charge to compensate for this, which allowed us to have access to two great views. The kitchenette facilities were great and the... More

Capital View Motor Inn was in a very good location. Handy for Cuba st and walking distance to most if not all of the city attractions. The place is clean but tired. Off street parking is a big plus as not many places offer this. We had 2 nights here and enjoyed our stay. If you are after 4 or... More
