    One of the great museums of the world - no stuffy "keep quiet" notices, lots to see & touch. Children of all ages just love it. Visit the coffee bar for a good flat-white and a super cake.

    Absolutely amazing exhibits such as Gallipoli and the nature exhibit. My 7 year old Son absolutely loved it. But the only sad note was the propaganda 2 versions of the treaty Climate emergency etc.. There was twice as much info on Maori history compared to colonial or even on how far we've come as a nation taking the country from Bush and swamp and long drop Toilets to the amazing place we all share now.

    This is a must see. We always enjoyed our time here. They have lockers for rent on the first floor if you have bags. It's always a treat to sit in the cafe and have tea and cake after walking around the exhibits. A favorite NZ museum.

    Te Papa Museum is an amazing place.

    Te Papa Museum is an amazing place. The history and preservation of the past are so well done. The Gallipoli museum display is unique and confronting with larger-than-life figures done in such a way that they look life-like. It does exemplify the stupidity of war! Preservation of Maori art and culture is also clearly and respectfully displayed and is well worth seeing. This museum was the real attraction of coming to Wellington for us and it surpassed our expectations.

    If you only have the day, then Te Papa is where to spend it. The WW1 exhibit is breathtaking, and they have used the time it was closed to improve a lot of the areas. Even if you've been here many times, it is always worth a see.

    Absolute must for any visit to Wellington.

    Absolute must for any visit to Wellington. Full of great historical exhibits about the Maori people and culture, and about the history and lifestyles of the European settlers, even though the way they developed the country must now be regarded as questionable. There are also frequent special exhibitions which are always unmissable.

    Pleasant - What previous guests thought, 1,000 reviews
    Good value for money, convenient access to Te Papa Museum, and the "Disney" Exhibition. Also the 24 hour grocery mart on the corner. Also just across the street from McDonalds. I did not use my vehicle during my stay, but walked everywhere, Every staff member I dealt with or talked to was very obliging and friendly. Nice,, comfortable room with good facilities [not 5 star, but I did not expect it to be] I would definitely like to stay with "Wellington Hotel" again, and will recommend it to anyone.

    The apartment is beautiful with amazing views and very convenient to Te Papa and the waterfront. The beds were very comfortable. The apartment had a few items that needed repairs (master bedroom door off hinge; dishwasher wouldn’t drain likely due to a full/dirty food filter so it leaked and was unusable) but generally it was lovely, modern, beautifully decorated and comfortably furnished. We would stay here again.

    The location. The space in the apartment, excellent facilities/ kitchen, bathroom, towels etc We had a broken toaster and phoned reception to let them know. When we came back from Te Papa we had a brand new toaster in the kitchen. We were very impressed at the excellent service. Your receptionist was very easy to chat to and very helpful. I am 74 and my sister 66 so we were v grateful for all the kindnesses. Sorry no photos - no good at technology.

    This place is such great value for money. The designs and finishes a so modern and moody, made for the perfect couples stay. There is an amazing restaurant under the hotel called Mr Go's and it is so delicious, perfect if you arrive early and need something to do. Everything is walkable and close to Te Papa. We only wish we could've stayed longer just for this hotel. We kept referring back to it the rest of the trip as so modern and great value for money.

    Great location - close to Cuba Street which has heaps of restaurants and cafe's. Walking distance to Te Papa and Courtney Place, where you can grab a bus to explore beyond Wellington CBD. The apartment has a good kitchenette (2 plate hob, microwave & dishwasher), pots, cutlery etc. Very well kitted out.

    The hotel room was clean and we love the details of our rooms, the TV can be adjusted to the proper position and the remote to control the curtains. The hotel was so handy to walk around Wellington Central area. Only 5 minutes to Te Papa museum and waterfront, 8 minutes walk to Cuba st and 10 minutes drive to airport. Reception staff was helpful and friendly. We will definitely come back!

    Staff were friendly and helpful. The location was perfect. Across the road is a lift to access Lambton Quay shopping precinct. I walked everywhere - Te Papa, Circa Theatre, Wellington Museum, Oriental Bay, Parliament House etc..There are great cafes a couple doors down from apartment building. The studio was perfect for one person/couple. It had everything I needed.

    Very comfortable hotel and perfect location for exploring Wellington. Close to Te Papa, short walk to the harbor and before we knew it, we were at the Beehive. Short stroll back via the cable car and Cuba St makes an ideal location. Being able to store our bags after check out allowed us to explore before we flew out that evening. Excellent buffet breakfast set us up for the day very nicly

    This is a gorgeous hotel right across from the Te Papa Museum in downtown Wellington! The artwork in the lobby and public areas was spectacular and really fun to explore. Our room was beautiful with an exceptional bathroom and amazing shower! We enjoyed the indoor pool and hot tub and found them quite relaxing on a rainy day in Wellington.

    My daughter and I really enjoyed the location of the Travelodge, very central but slightly off street so it seemed private. It was very very close to the shopping, central sights of Wellington and all restaurants, cafes in this area. Each day we walked to Te Papa etc. All facilities and hotel amenities were provided and we were happy with the service received.
