Quest 256 Lambton provides rooms in Wellington near Wellington Cable Car and Te Papa. With free WiFi, this 4-star hotel offers luggage storage space.

We catered our own meals....the facilities were perfect for that. The location in Central Wellington was perfect for our needs, particularly as we didn't have a car. We had visited Wellington on many previous occasions, we knew the general area and used trains, ferries and buses for out of town sightseeing purposes.

FAQs about hotels in Wellington

Wild and Wonderful Welly

Acclaimed for its thriving art, film and cultural scene, windy ‘Welly’ is enclosed by mountains such as Kaukau and Victoria on one side and the picturesque Wellington Harbour on the other. Wellington has the distinction of being the world’s southernmost capital city.

As the gateway to New Zealand’s magical south island, Queens Wharf is headquarters for ferry services across Cook Strait as well as in the direction of Eastbourne on the other side of the harbour.

Get your bearings by using the Kelburn cable car that starts at Lambton Quay and travels up to the Botanic Gardens and Carter Observatory with its sweeping views across the Miramar Peninsula and local bays.

Don’t miss a visit to New Zealand’s national museum, Te Papa, which also incorporates the National Art Gallery. Cuba Street offers a multicultural touch and includes the Wellington Night Market with an array of international cuisines. Ascot Street is a lively shopping precinct.

Wellington Airport has flights to other domestic destinations as well as Australia and Fiji. Booking.com can help you choose your hotel to round off a fantastic city trip vacation.

    Absolutely love visiting Wellington.

    Absolutely love visiting Wellington. Easy to navigate on foot. Parking expensive if you have a car so we look for accommodation that provides free parking. Plenty of amazing restaurants and cafes in and around Cuba Street. Te Papa a must visit destination and if you are there on Sunday, visit the market just around the corner. Yummy food stalls and great fresh fruit and veg vendors.

    Wellington on the whole is a rundown place, except a few arty hotels like QT or Naomi or Museum. Unless you come here on a sunny windless day you might feel like there is an apocalyptic event ahead of you.

    I could have added another night.

    I could have added another night. However, I was sick so it was probably right for this time. Next time, I’ll stay at least three nights. Such a thriving wine and food scene. Check out Liberty (sibling to Logan Brown) and Elixir. The Green Man was fine for a pub drink.

    Wellington was friendly and clean.

    Wellington was friendly and clean. We felt safe in this city. The shopping was fantastic and the food was amazing. There were some great activities eg. Funicular, Botanic Gardens, the Lady Norwood Rose Garden, the Te Papa (Museum) and the waterfront

    Although the weather let us down for our “day” in Wellington...

    Although the weather let us down for our “day” in Wellington we still had a great time at Te Papa. Only downfall of this idea was everyone else who was visiting Wellington was there too. Pity the cafe staff were not able to cope with the demand. Poor management I feel. Fortunately we found an excellent restaurant not far away with great harbour views.

    Always a treat to visit Wellington - so easy to get around,...

    Always a treat to visit Wellington - so easy to get around, buses frequent with helpful drivers. It only rained on one day - Friday 10th Nov. In the mornings, I walked to the Mt Vic lookout - except on one day, I walked along the bays. My friend celebrated her birthday with a cruise on the Sweet Georgia. Had dinners at Bin 44, KC Cafe, Apache and The Grand. Had old work reunion at Southern Cross Bar and visited dear friend in Miramar. Spent amazing time with one of my best friends and caught up with my cousins. You can walk everywhere - Lambton Quay, Cuba St, Courtenay Place and Oriental Bay. And you can grab food, easily from New World and many cafes and restaurants in the CBD.
