Hotels near Point Halswell Lighthouse, Wellington

Have stayed at this Ibis in central Wellington twice now, and it never disappoints = you know just what you'll get; clean and functional spaces, rooms, bathrooms etc. Breakfast was very good also, and plentiful. Pleasant staff throughout also; an all-round positive experience as part of work travels. Although Ibis is predominantly a budget hotel brand elsewhere in the world, such as Europe - this hotel is priced for location, and the local market; hence mid-range.

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.

It's close to Queen's Wharf. The rooms are large and tall. The outer building is very European style. Arrive, very good feeling, if the price can still be recommended

I have just had a one night stay at this hotel and splurged on a Junior Suite which was well worth it. The room was beautiful...better than the photos suggested which is really unusual!! Due to current low staffing levels (the bane of hospitality everywhere atm) they currently don't offer valet parking and this was the low-light of the stay. Obviously I completely understand the staffing issues but.... On arrival (at approx 10.30pm due to a 4+ hour ferry delay) I was dismayed to find the doors locked but staff were available to let me in. I unloaded and my bags were taken to my room and I had to park the car myself. Other than being really tired and not up for negotiating Wellington CBD's notorious one way system to get to the car-park, this was fine and not usually something I would gripe about. The car-park is actually directly attached to the hotel which is perfect, but I had to drive around the block in a counter-intuitive manner to get to the car-park. I knowingly drove the wrong way down a 1-way St to make my life easier as it was okay to do it at that time of night with deserted streets. An hour or so later I called for room service (several times) and no-one answered the phone on any occasion. I knew they were short-staffed so no problem, I wandered down to reception to order a meal. I had the chicken laksa which was nice. The midday check out was wonderful and check-out was seamless. But I had a major issue getting out of the car-park and I'm not sure if this is my fault or the Hiltons fault. On arrival I was given an information sheet regarding the parking and this included the exit code. I committed this to memory and off I went. However, on entering the code at the car-park exit point the barrier did not rise. Traffic built up behind me rapidly and my blood pressure and stress levels ramped up accordingly. I had the correct code and on subsequent attempts to get out, tried the code followed by the # key and also tried the code followed by the tick/green light key but no dice. I tried calling reception but got no answer and was just about in tears when a kind man (about 5 cars back on a narrow exit point in a typical inner city parking building) walked down and used his card to let me out. Thank god for him whoever he was. This was really stressful as I had been on the road for 2 weeks and was about to embark on the last leg of my journey and just didn't need the stress. I was particularly annoyed they did not answer the phone when I called. I called a 2nd time but by the time I got some-one on the phone the good samaritan had let me out. I definitely had the correct code to exit the car-park but was not aware I needed to press the tick/green key afterwards (although...I did try this and it didn't work... I may have entered this final step too late because I didn't know it was needed). I can't recall seeing this instruction on the info sheet I was given. Hence...it may have been my fault...or not?? Either

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 pillows were so soft.. my bed was so soft and comfy..had a great sleep.. room was quiet .staff friendly and so obliging. Always feel welcome and just q chilled environment..room clean.. restaurant great food.. I highly recommend ++++

Nice serviced apartment hotel in a fabulous location perfect for accessing all parts of this astonishing city. Less than 10 minutes walk to the Basin Reserve cricket ground which was the main reason for our visit to catch the Kiwis v England 5-day test match. Friendly staff, nicely appointed rooms and suites with a washing machine and tumble dryer in the bathroom. The washing machine was essential for a 9-night stay with us only bringing carry on cabin luggage. We never used the tumble dryer as they are so bad for the environment and clothes tended to dry quite quickly naturally as well making use of the heated towel rail in the bathroom. We had a suite which consisted of a combined kitchen and living area, separate bedroom and large en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower. Absolutely perfect for a long stay.

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.

We travelled for a family event and needed a twin share room with car parking availability in a central location. Loved the historical building with modern, comfortable decor. Cheerful decoration atmosphere - amazing staff - would certainly both recommend and stay again :-)

I checked in today. As a budget hotel, its facilities and services should be good. All facilities are very good, clean and tidy, and the staff are very nice and helpful. What's especially commendable is that there is a small kitchen where you can cook by yourself Order light meals. Near Cuba Street, there are many restaurants and bars, and there is also a 24-hour Night’in day convenience store on the opposite corner of the street! If you add a small dining table and chairs in the room, it will be perfect!
