In March my husband & I stayed in #7 Tonks Grove for 3 nights. This was our first time in New Zealand, and we spent the first 3 nights of our trip here (after our 3 flights from Denver). We couldn't have picked a better place; it was immaculately clean, convenient, and everything was as described online and via emails... More

We stayed at the City Cottage number 5 for two nights and can't really praise this accommodation enough! Here's what we thought: Property: A superb self-contained cottage, renovated to a very high standard. The property consists of an open plan kitchen/living area, with a small dining area included in the space, a double bedroom separated by a sliding wall and... More

We booked both cottages for nine days and were delighted with the location, layout and presentation of the cottages. We liked the keypad entry which meant we did not have to worry about keys. The bed was so comfortable and the linen was topclass. We appreciated the car space in this busy part of Wellington and the access to some... More

We stayed two nights at City Cottages, #7 Tonks Grove. The cottage is in a private enclave amidst high rise, busy downtown Wellington. Fantastic location and easy entry with a keypad. New interior and well appointed. Immaculate. Great kitchen and laundry facilities. Wi-Fi did not work well and no phone land line or barbecue. Within walking distance of the waterfront... More

I booked this accommodation online a few months before we were due to travel. The communication from the owner was prompt and detailed, leaving us with no hesitations about our journey. We arrived late one evening to find the sofa bed all made up and ready to use (thank you soooo much!), and the cottage in an immaculate condition. We... More

Loved staying on Tonks Grove in walking distance of nearly everywhere. Cottages were moved location a few years ago and are quirky accommodation in a great way! Very well thought renovation with everything you need. Most surprised to find a dishwasher! there were no dishwasher tablets left but a text to the owner solved it before the end of the... More

All enquiries prior to arrival dealt with quickly and efficiently. Easy access to cottage with keypad rather than a key. The situation of the cottage just off Cuba Street is excellent. On our last night we ate out at Logan Brown's, supposedly the best restaurant in Wellington, which was less than 5 minutes' walk away so very convenient. Very comfortable... More

These wee cottages are fantastically located, and having an included car park right in the middle of town was fabulous. The bed was comfy with nice linen and the bathroom was well appointed. The kitchen was great and although we didn't partake, the breakfast goodies box is a really nice and generous touch. We only stayed one night but it... More

Great place to stay. Easy walking distance to city centre. Very easy having access codes instead of keys to the room. TV was a little small and couch not too comfortable to sit on, but we weren't there to sit and watch tv so didn't really matter.

The location of the house is great. We were able to walk to everywhere that we needed to go to. The other bonus is some fantastic cafes and shops right on the doorstep.
