Hotels near Lyall Bay, Wellington

Stayed for 2 nights on and adults weekend away. Great little hotel, rooms are nice with fully equipped kitchen in the suite. I would recommend the suite rather than room for a bit more space. Nice little touches like Bottled water, an Organic fruit drink and chocolate in your room on arrival. Plus you can help yourself to soft drinks and coffee in the lobby anytime. Came with breakfast (continental) which looked nice but we ate out. Customer service was really god. Very close to everything, Will stay again. The only thing that bothered me was no opening windows, but fresh air vents are in place.

I don’t normally like to stay at this hotel but decided to give it another go as I do like the location and views from the harbour view rooms. Mistake. The room was well over-priced at $340 for the night and the service was poor at every step of the way. Parking is limited, tight and if it is raining, you can get quite wet if parking across the road. If parking, there is no way to enter the hotel as the door at the car park side requires a room key to access. Impossible when you haven’t yet checked in. I rang the bell for service several times with no response. I eventually knocked on the door when a staff member saw me, she let me in and promptly turned her back without acknowledging me. Reception is actually 7 floors down but this staff member certainly wasn’t going to tell me that. After checking in, and paying $25 to park across the road, I was then told to put a pass on my dashboard. Yep, they have all the vehicle details from check in, but insist on you then going up 7 floors, and walking out of the hotel and across the road to put the pass on the dash otherwise you risk being towed! Reception already has all the details. This all took longer because one of the two lifts was out of service. Check previous reviews - this is not new. I thought I’d go to he bar for a drink after this however it was closed to the public for a private function and I was told I could not be in that area. At this point I decided to go elsewhere for dinner. On exiting the one lift that was working, it was blocked by a vacuum cleaner that had been placed across the lift door by a staff member. I chose to eat breakfast elsewhere and got out of there as soon as I could. I used the express checkout - but never received a GST invoice / receipt. I had to follow that up also. I stay in hotels regularly for business - it won’t be this one again. No part of this experience was well executed. I advise businesses on how to deliver a great customer experience. This hotel is a case study in how not to do it and that is the only thing that I am grateful for from this visit.

No extra bed, breakfast is standard hotel buffet breakfast, milk coffee juice drink, fried egg bacon sausage grilled mushroom, fruit oatmeal bread chant, butter jam. That's it. The location is very close to the city center. You can drive to the museum and the seaside in 8 or 9 minutes. The front desk of the hotel is responsible for parking and picking up the car. It costs 30 yuan per day for parking, no extra tip is required.

We stayed at this hotel when visiting Wellington. (Rm705) The staff were friendly and helpful. The foyer and corridors looked tired and in need of refurbishment. We stayed on the top floor overlooking a side street. The room was clean well appointed and of a good size. The beds were comfortable and the shower had a good pressure. Car parking was limited and a tight squeeze to get in. We could have done with double glazing windows as we did have some street noise from rowdy people. The restaurant at the hotel needed to display More Gluten Free Options as this prevented us eating there. Al's Top Tips Ask for a room not over looking Willis Street. Take a good umbrella / waterproof clothing as it rains alot here and can be quite windy.

It's an older hotel and the halls smell a little funky but that quickly fades. The rooms show some signs of wear but are clean and have all the things you need. The bed was clean and comfy. The dining room was cozy and inviting. There seemed to be a little confusion in the kitchen, I know places are short staffed, but the food that arrived I really enjoyed. It is close to lots of things, I was on foot for this trip. The value was good for the price and I would stay here again.

The location of the hotel is very good, it is convenient to go everywhere, and the bedding is very comfortable. The restaurant on the first floor of the hotel is delicious. You can walk to Shed5, the same restaurant of Jay Clan, within five minutes. The service staff are all very nice, which is pretty good in New Zealand, which is famous for its deserted hotels.

I was so impressed with the reception staff, who were friendly, accommodating and professional. Claudia and Ella went out of their way to help, and did it with a smile. Claudia met us to drop off a key for the car park, which was very thoughtful as my mother can't walk far these days. Our room is lovely, so central, modern and fresh. Great to just step out the door, and be so close to the shops and other activities...its just a hop skip and a jump from the cable car. Given the 5 star treatment we've received, I would definitely stay here again, when next visiting Wellington. I will also consider booking a Quay hotel when traveling around NZ. Thanks again to Ella and Claudia!

Great location and very friendly and helpful staff. Check in was a breeze, and we were allocated a room as requested, in a quiet zone of the hotel. Although on a steep hill, the elevator down the street level was a bonus. After a long day, we used the room service and can highly recommend the Haloumi Burger for something different. But please have a Club Sandwich on the menu in the future. The bed was terrific and we had a great sleep. Breakfast (included in our room tariff) was great. A take away container of fresh fruit offered was a nice bonus. Will I/We stay here again? Yes. Sure will.

My partner and I stayed at Hotel Waterloo & Backpackers for a weekend in Wellington. We had a private room with ensuite bathroom. The room was tidy and clean, located at the end of the hallway (quiet - Bonus point!). The staff was friendly as well. The Hotel is in a perfect location: close to the Beehive and in walking distance to the CBD, Te Papa, Cable Car etc. Can recommend!

I have stayed in this wonderful establishment at least twice a month for the past 4 months for business. I have been meaning to write a review for a long time. Firstly heads up to the amazing Gurdev, office manager who quite frankly deserves a medal (or at least a pay rise) for his absolutely outstanding customer service. Not only does he make me feel welcome, but goes above and beyond to make sure that nothing is ever a problem. I have observed his interactions with other guests and I’m sure they would also say the same should they chose to review. Although very close to Jackson street, I have never been bothered by noise. A handy walk to many excellent eateries. The rooms are beautifully cleaned by lovely cleaning staff. Some rooms are a little small, it doesn’t bother me as I’m just there to sleep basically. Bed’s super comfortable. What’s not to like… if you want to stay in Petone I would highly recommend
