Service and condition let’s this hotel down
Great location however what lets this hotel down is the consistently bad service at the front desk and the overall condition of the apartments. I’ve stayed at this hotel and the QT and other properties on various stays in Wellington and the Museum hotel is the worst. The combined front desk, cafe set up is a disaster with staff behind the counter just standing around unable to service guests when checking in or out (presumably staff rostered here are not cross-trained to serve both front desk and restaurant customers). Rooms furnishings are more style over substance with chairs uncomfortable to sit in, my bathroom was poorly designed with an unnecessarily large spa bath compromising both the shower and toilet areas, and kitchen facilities are almost worthless due to lack of a suitable area to eat any food you cook. I intended to cook during my stay but didn’t due to the poor facilities provided in my apartment. The apartments are large enough just poorly designed! Leaking fridge in the first room I was allocated is also indicative of a hotel with poor systems and processes as the room was not in a condition to be activated for allocation to guests.

The apartment was clean with good light. There were 4 of us (2 couples) not enough seating in living area. Not well stocked for cooking. We had expected 2 bathrooms, but we only had one bathroom with no opportunity to move to an apartment with 2 bathrooms. Easy walking to museum and water front and cafe/dinning.

This property was so unique. We loved it so much. So close to Te Papa Museum and walking distance to the Cable Car. Checking was super easy and quick. Valet parking was flawless. Pricing was amazing and the buffet breakfast left us with full bellies. Highly recommend.

The hotel is in a great location close to Te Papa, the waterfront, supermarket and restaurants. The rooms was spacious and clean with good amenities provided (the bath was massive!) I was a little disappointed that we didn’t get bathrobes or shower caps, simple things like this really elevate a stay. Also it was very noisy at night with loud cars and people outside (it was a Saturday), so if you are a light sleeper bring ear plugs! The pool and spa was nice, but a bathrobe would have helped the trip there and back in swim suits….. Overall a nice stay and recommended if you want a clean spacious room with an excellent location.

A touch of class
This hotel is really different. Set like a modern art museum the rooms are well appointed and feels like a touch of luxury. Great location by Te Papa. A few annoying things, taxis drop you at the back door due to one way streets and that door is locked. Nothing like standing in windy wellington waiting for someone to answer the buzzer, then the phone when I gave up on the buzzer. That was a pain. Ask your taxi to loop around to main entrance. The a-la-carte breakfast was great but some days its the worlds smallest buffet for over $30. I was insulted, that was a rip off. Bar staff great, fabulous gin bar, rooms fantastic, but plan to have breakfast elsewhere on buffet days!

The washing machine/dryer in our one bedroom apartment was rubbish and did not dry at all. It just made our clothes smell damp. We looked up the User Manual online and followed the instructions but the clothes still would not dry. Other than that, the room and the facilities at the hotel were good and we enjoyed our stay there.
