Decor a bit dated but clean and bathroom very good with normal and rain shower heads. Our room rate gave us breakfast and access to the executive lounge. In the lounge there was all day tea/coffee, incredible afternoon tea with 3 tier cake stand of goodies and drinks from 5pm also with 3 tier snacks/canapés. I think we got half the room rate back from those things alone. Very friendly staff. Recommend

Its only a 5 minute walk to the water front where there are a ton of shops, restaurants and running trails. Walking into the hotel is like, well... the name... a museum. Incredible artwork grace the exterior walls of the building as well as every inch of the lobby. My room was comfy and decorated with more art pieces and floor to ceiling mirrors on most of the walls. Only complaint is the shower head had very little water pressure making showering a little difficult. I highly recommend the hotel for the experience and location.

When we walked in we were greeted and checked in. Our room was on a very high level and the views were amazing. We also had $100 hotel credit which we used at the bar one night for snacks and drinks. We were welcomed into our room with a cute little gift baggie with chocolates and a card. The room was amazing- had everything you'd need including a microwave which I think some other New Zealand hotels were missing. They had valet parking and providing a service called Turn Down Service. Someone knocked on our door around 6pm to ask if we're interested- I was curious so I asked questions/- what's included, it means they tuck you in, give you tea, and chocolate. I was scared I had to tip so we denied but she was so sweet and offered us the chocolate and tea which is happily took. We also had another instance when I was attempting to warm up leftovers but missing utensils and called downstairs and they delivered three to go utensils packs on a platter like a proper delivery, it was incredible. I have no bad words about this hotel, good proximity to of the main area/ walking distance. Highly recommend if staying in Wellington!

Situated near the Terrace Street…read morewhich is a Main Street in the business area: clean, busy, safe, Sofitel is on a smaller street 2 minutes walk from the Terrace Street. Translation: it is convenient, I walked everywhere during my stay, and I feel extremely safe even at late night. Walk near the water is only 10 minutes walk. To be on Lambton Street is 10 minutes walk. To go to where the restaurants near the water is like 20-25 minutes. I highly recommend Whitebait and Charley Noble. The room here is spacious, functional and super cute. Very boutique hotel and in style.

The frosted glass of the bathroom that looks into the bed area was weird. The bed was comfortable and big. The kitchenette has a frig and microwave, as well as an electric stovetop.

I'm not sure how safe it is though, so better take out all the valuables.

The room itself was very nice with a lot of space and everything was new and clean. Bathroom was spacious and had a great shower. The beds were very comfortable and it was quiet and easy to enjoy a good nights sleep. We went upstairs to the lounge to grab a drink and I imagine that during the day it's a beautiful view as you are surrounded with windows. At night there is not much that you could see, but the lounge was nice and the drink was mixed well. It is a pretty pricey stay, but you don't get many amenities. Wifi was additional and had to be renewed which was annoying and expensive. The other thing, is the front desk staff wasn't super friendly to us any of the days we were there. Overall it's a visually impressive hotel and though pricey, a pretty comfortable stay.

The staff was very pleasant at check in and gave some good tips about things to do in the area. The room was very nice and modern. I was impressed with by the granite countertop in the kitchen area and the full size refrigerator. The hotel also had a parking garage, though I did find it difficult to maneuver in. Overall we had a good stay here and I would stay here again.

My best and by far favorite hotel stay whilst in the North Island…read more This place is lovely with its apartment style hotel rooms. It's complete with a living room area, mounted tv, a table set for four. There's a fully stocked kitchen, huge fridge and all the essentials including a kettle, toaster, oven, dishwasher, microwave, knife set, with coffee, tea, and hot chocolate for your consumption. The living room, lounge area is wide open with a 5 seat sofa. The bedroom is comfortable with four fluffy pillows. The bathroom is huge, glass counter top with a sunk in sink; both a tub and shower combo. Just has odd set up with no sliding bathroom door, just a swinging window door. It's an awkward shower placement, that weird swinging door isn't wide enough to keep water from getting out of the bath, so be weary of where you place that bathmat. In the bathroom is also a handy two in one washer dryer. All in all, it was a great stay. The parking situation can be prepaid with the hotel, and it is joined to a parking garage, you'd just have to go through the parking garage elevator to get to the right level then take your hotel elevator up to your room. And our window opened up to a gorgeous view...of the parking garage. That's what I loved waking up to. I only kid, everything else about this place was going for it. Walking distance to Cuba Street, it's very centralized and easy to get to and find.

The rooms…read moreare fairly small with lighting so poor that it's obvious no woman was involved in the design. The "king" bed is two saggy twin beds squeezed together, creating a hump and seam in the center. Our more expensive "harbor view" room was actually a view of the street and parking lot. No water in sight, but the rude desk clerk refused to acknowledge this reality and encouraged me to write this review. There is no way to get a cup of coffee or a snack without paying a whopping $38 for their third floor breakfast. Much less overpriced options are close by, but inconvenient in a rush. While the location is very close to Te Papa Museum, most other desirable locations are a bit of a walk. Due to the false advertising, bad attitude, poor lighting and uncomfortable beds, I'd suggest you consider a better property.

The Wi-Fi internet connection held true and was faster than what I'm accustomed to in hotels. TV had some good American shows after 5pm. You get all the basic amenities including A/C, mini fridge, closet with hangars, etc. Room is fairly quiet. The hotel has a great coffee shop and cafe in the lobby. You can add them to your room service if you like. Check in and check out were simple processes. I had no unexpected or hidden charges. The staff has a direct line to the cab company that will take you to the airport. Cons: The room gets HOT during the day even in the Spring. I left my A/C on full blast while I was at work and would still come back to it being pretty unbearable. Temperature would normalize around 6ish, I'm betting it gets unbearable in the summer though. Breakfast was not included with the suite. Basic things like eggs, bacon, and toast were $20 NZD and just not worth it. I didn't try any food at the cafe or hotel because there's too many options just outside on Cuba street with higher quality and better prices.
