Hotels near Worser Bay Boating Club, Wellington

Arrived at the hotel at 10pm, found that the front desk had gone off duty, used the doorbell to call the front desk, and was told that the room card was in a password box. After searching for more than ten minutes, I still couldn't find it. It was with the help of an enthusiastic citizen that I finally found this hard-earned room card! If I didn't have a certain level of English communication skills, I would probably have to sleep on the street 😅

We have a blast, from the friendly staff, complimentary foods, the room and the aesthetic place. The location is good easy access for foods, entertainment and shop. We enjoy the breakfast it is worth it. A bit sad, the pool is not that well maintain during our stay. Next time, I hope how many people in the room equal to how many the toiletries (ex. Toothbrush) except for shampoo, body wash, conditioner and hand wash. We’ll come again for sure and recommend to people who plans to have a trip in wellington. Hence, the place is warm and overall the facilities and services are the best.

Nice hotel and conveniently located. Very accessible to all the attractions, good walk to the city centre. Nearby Cuba street. and the national museum. Hotel is a bit old but still very clean and breakfast is typically a European type.

We arrived here very early as we had been booked on an early flight from Blenheim. we left our luggage and spent the day visiting various places . By three o'clock, when we had been told to come back, we were a bit tired after the early start and lots of walking so were rather dismayed to hear our room wasn't ready. Throughout our three week tour in NZ we heard a lot about staff shortages in the hospitality sector. The receptionist asked housekeeping if they could prioritise our room and about 45 mins later we were able to go up. As compensation for the delay we were given two bottles of wine and some chocolate. We appreciated the gesture although we had said we understood the problems . Our apartment had two bedrooms, one ensuite and the other with a bathroom across the hall. The kitchen was well equipped and we were pleased to have a washing machine and tumble dryer. There is a steep slope up to the entrance to this place which may cause difficulties for some. It is very conveniently located for restaurants, shops and attractions. The harbour area is only a 15 to 20 minute walk away, depending on mobility levels. A good base for exploring Wellington.

Checked in late from a delayed flight. Reception was pleasant and handled our arrival professionally. Took a bit longer due to slow computer but he was always updating us on progress and was apologetic. Room was great. Full amenities and had four pillows in our king size bed! All fluffy and comfy. Quite room and since we arrived late, we got a check out extension which was really really nice. Location is center and walkable distance to many shops and restaurants. Would definitely use this hotel again.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a mostly enjoyable experience. The central location is fantastic—everything is within walking distance, including shops, restaurants, water front, the cable car, Te Papa Museums, and the lively Cuba Street. The airport express bus station is also just a few minutes away, which is super convenient. However, I did encounter a few issues. The room had two single beds, but their legs weren’t lockable, so we had to use boxes and furniture stop them from moving. Additionally, there are quite a few steps to reach the front entrance. While there’s an escalator next door to bypass the steps during the day, accessing the hotel can be challenging with luggage when access to the escalator is closed after work. One noteworthy experience was a fire evacuation around 2 AM. Thankfully, the fire exit process worked very smoothly, and we were safely evacuated without any issues. Luckily, it wasn't raining, which made the situation a bit easier. Despite these inconveniences, the room was clean and comfortable, and the check-in and check-out process was easy. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel for its great location and cleanliness. We will definitely return.

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 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

This place was booked by a family member for the criteria of being cheap and close to the CBD. The location was excellent and could not really fault that. The parking was a bit variable with lots of free metered parks when we arrived on Xmas Day but found it hard to find one during the late afternoons and had to park in adjacent streets on some days. The parking garage options were also a bit pricey. As we arrived on Xmas Day, no one assisted us with our luggage so we took it upon ourselves to get a luggage trolley and go up the lifts to our rooms. Passageways leading to the rooms were a bit narrow. The key access was fine although the door strike plate was hanging on by a single screw and looked like it would fall off anytime soon. The rooms were small, functional with a sofa bed that gave me a slightly sore back in the morning. The main bedroom had a queen bed which was nice. Kitchen facilities were adequate. Room service was a bit lacking - on our 3 night stay, the room was only cleaned on the second morning and we only had 2 towels for the 4 of us initially. The bathroom was really cramped and uncomfortable. Did not try the washer dryer. The views were reasonable - mainly of buildings across the street. Wifi access was rather sporadic. Overall I would only recommend this to people on business for a maximum of 2 nights. Not really designed for families.

O M G. The staff are so lovely, the room was perfect for our overnight stay. The ladies at the front desk were super busy when we checked in but still managed a smile for everyone. The bussiness however meant that we weren't told about the charge for parking. We were happy to pay because secure overnight parking is hard to come by, but it was a surprise when the gentleman checking us out advised of it. (It does say about the charge on the back of the paper that goes in your car windscreen, however after being mucked around by our initial hotel, we were in too much of a rush to get sorted for the concert we were attending that we didn't even think to read it)
