I recently stayed here on a work trip to Wellington Hospital. Location was great for anyone needing to go to the hospital. It was across the road so you can also get free parking! I walked up the street and had Indian takeaway for dinner, but there were a few options within walking distance.The room was compact, but perfectly ok... More

We booked into this place for 4 nights. It is what you would expect but the TV reception in the room we had was terrible. Only some channels were clear. When asked if they could be fixed the owner said the place had issues but they could not really do much. He offered no compensation and said we could check... More

Thanks for your feedback Leighton, again we apologise that enjoyment of your stay here was impacted with the poor TV reception of TV3 and Prime. As mentioned, unfortunately a bank of scaffolding erected directly in front of our aerial on the newly constructed Ronald McDonald house next door in the few days prior to your arrival, was accessed as the...

Handy spot to park if afraid of all the one way streets in central Wellington as Buses within 50 metres of door. Rooms clean & equipped, no noise from busy road, at least on ground floor. Make your decision on the above. A wander up Riddiford road is not inspiring & even tho Asian/ Indian restaurants are in profusion, they... More

Had a very nice stay here. Rooms were well attended to and the cleaners were lovely. I was however slightly disappointed with the reception service given as i did not find them overly helpful/friendly. I was also quite shocked to find that having stayed here for a prolonged period of time and at a decent price a night, i was... More

Compact motel in a centralish location - ideal for visitors to Wellington who have a vehicle and don't watn to pay extra fees for parking. Staff friendly and helpful. Kitchen fully equipped. Handy to hospital and walking distance from Newtown. Would stay here again.

Great motel, very clean with modern units. Great service by owners. Right across road from the main entrance to Wellington Hospital. Good bus services and restaurants very close. No road noise at night. I would highly recommend this motel. 5MB of free wireless Broadband. Very reasonable rates for units.

This motel was booked and paid for by my employer for exam-related purposes at Wellington Hospital. I liked the place straight away. Clean, tidy with heater, adequate kitchenette and fresh milk. Friendly owner who was helpful and allowed me to store my luggage after checking out in his garage. Daily room service even though I was only there for 2... More

Thanks for your feedback. Just a small point. The Free wireless broadband is described on the access homepage as 5MB, but this is the UPLOAD amount. This equates to approximately 20MB DOWNLOAD which is usually amble to check e-mails and a small amount of web browsing. More

Location excellent, with great bus... More

Proximity to Wellington Hospital (right accross the road) was the draw card. The manager (owner?) impressed us with his helpfullness. 2nd floor stairs and balcony are a little narrow as is the shower cubicle but the rooms are very well appointed and very clean. Great restaurants metres away, and a dairy and bus stop right outside make it so convenient.... More
