We were in Wellington for only one night and wanted something cheap and central. We arrived at the serviced apartments at 11am 3 hours before usual check-in, but were given our room without having to wait around until 2pm. This was great so we could unpack and get on with our day.

I had pre-booked a room on a higher level of the building, as I had read previous reviews saying the views were better. We were given room 13B which looked over several apartment buildings across the road towards the tree covered hills. If we had been staying longer I would have asked to have a room on the other side of the building which looked out to Wellington Harbour, as our room was quite noisy due to a motorway a block away. The road noise was intrusive first thing in the morning.

Cost per night NZ$139.00 which was only $10.00 more than a room on a lower level.

The room was a studio, comfortable bed, small dining table, and kitchen with a 2 burner stove top,dishwasher, a washer / dryer combination machine in cupboard. The bathroom shower had great water pressure but need some repair work to the shower surround. The TV had all the local stations and one movie channel, plus you could see the relay from the camera at the apartment’s front door which was kind of interesting in a weird way.

It was an easy 10 minute walk down the hill to the main shopping on Lampton Quay, but a bit of a climb back up.
We would stay here again, but only if we could get a room on the harbour side of the building.

At the time we arrived we could not enter the building. Only via intercom we were let in. Found our way to a little dark office that was obviously closed, though it was normal business hours and it should be open. Unclear instructions referred to a number to be called to check in. Via phone we received a code to a locker where we would find our keys....further no clear instructions for the carpark. Carpark itself is a carkiller and it is a real challenge to find the right place without guidance. Only small size cars do fit in there. It is not a nice and friendly warm welcome procedure you would expect. It is very disappointing. After it took us an hour to check in we went for dinner. We were fortunate to get out of the carpark without having our rental holden commodore damaged. After dinner we parked in the street. You do not want to push your luck and try this a second time! Also the apartment was a disappointment compared to the competition. Check out was not possible because we left before the office was open.....we left our keys in the locker again....

I had my top three placed that I wanted to stay in Wellington and had written down one of the address incorrectly, I ended up at Central Terrace Heights so went in and asked for a price. I wasnt very impressed by the reception area as it was a little daggy and didnt seem very professional, but after a long day and sick of running around..the price was good so my husband and I decided to take the room for a few nights. After a VERY confusing ride up to the scariest carpark i've ever been in and getting lost on the way to our room.. I opened the door to our apartment expecting the worst.. and WOW.. we were on the 14th floor had an amazing view over Wellington, huge living area, kitchen, seperate laundry and a great bathroom. This place is a real hidden gem. To start with I thought the location was a bit out of the way, but after finding the local shortcuts it's really very central to the city and everything is in easy walking distance (if you dont mind a few hills). The room furnishings are modern and trendy and kitchen has everything you need. There wasnt any central heating and only two bar heaters and the room wasn't as clean as others i had stayed in (It was clean but had a bit of dust around) apart from that I cant really fault the place. For $130 NZD per night, It felt like we had a penthouse apartment.

It was our first time in Wellington. The apartment was nice and clean, and had a well equipped kitchen + washing machine. The location is not so good, because the place is located on a hill.

PS: If you arrive late, like we did, there is no reception and you have to talk to someone on the phone to get your keys.
