Fun in Wellington

Review of QT Wellington
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 2 Sept 2024
Great location, near lots of bars and restaurants, good bar in the hotel and bespoke decor. Staff excellent, very friendly and helpful.. The restaurant is well situated with fabulous views over the harbour. Wellington is windy - but the hotel is well protected.
Date of stay: August 2024
Room Tip: Check out at 10 am is too early - request a later check out.

Quiet room, stunning view, hot spa and friendly service. Bliss:)

Saturday night Visa on a plate Moulin Rose upstairs at Hippopotamus Restaurant a fun event with no commute. Located so close to Te Papa and Oriental Bay made our staycation complete.

Room tip: Valet car parking a great option

We're so pleased your stay was bliss ! Well, you’ve just made our day. While we had a feeling we’d served up something spectacular, it’s always nice to hear it straight from the source. We all need a little validation sometimes, eh? For more surprises and extra delights, see you back here soon?

Beautifully appointed hotel with fabulous, original art works throughout.
Spacious room with very comfy bed and pillows, large bathroom with freestanding bath, double sinks and walkin shower. Only problem was we had no hot water the night we arrived or the next morning due to a boiler problem. Would have been nice to have been contacted by staff re this matter.
Staff on the whole wereBeaut very welcoming and helpful.
Great location across the road from Te Papa museum and within walking distance of all the central city.
Would definitely stay again.

So glad to hear you'll stay again ! A great result, right?! Thanks for pointing out the artwork, spacious vanity and helpful team members. We're so sorry there was a hot water issue during your time with us; but delighted to share that we were quickly back to normal operation.

Good location. Comfortable bed.

Negatives:
-Poor servicing and cleaning of room
-Very inconvenient plug sockets beside the bed
-No assistance with luggage

Felt like a very mediocre stay so would probably choose somewhere different next time.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Mediocre is not what we're about; so we're very sorry to have missed the mark for you. We expect our rooms to be spick and span, so we'll test ourselves again to make sure we're consistently on point.

Myself and a few coworkers stayed here as we were also holding a conference in QT's Tamburini Room, and it was quite easily the best hotel experience i've had in NZ. There is so much detail in the art and presentation from the lobby, to the hallways, to the dining area, to the room. I was surprised to find a giant bathtub in my room and a Dyson hairdryer?? And the bed....omg. So comfy. Loved the mix of luxury and quirkiness. Definitely staying at QT again if I have the chance. <3

Thanks so much ! A little praise goes a long way. While we’re working hard to raise the bar every day, we love hearing when it’s really hit a high. Thank you !

Overpriced hotel with very poor quality “superior rooms” No workspace, dated/dirty bathroom. The shower didn’t work properly and there was mould on the grout. A soft bed and very tired decor. Probably was great about 20 years ago but obviously no investment made since then. Avoid at all costs.

Room tip: Do not stay here!

We work hard to match all kinds of QT experiences to their price tags, and we’re sorry to hear the value wasn’t there for you this time. Thank you for letting us know what you thought. We’re always adjusting with new offerings, and hope you’ll give us a try again soon.
