Exceptional”
The very close proximity with the Railway Station is the main deciding factor on why I chose Rydges Wellington. Although I was a bit skeptical initially when reading descriptions of the hotel location but when I experience it myself, readers can count on me that... YES! Rydges Wellington is indeed 2 minutes of casual walk to the Railway Station but 1 MINUTE normal walking distance not only to/from the Railway Station but the beautiful Wharf. My only regret is it was a short stay . I might be back to Wellington and Rydges will again be my choice of accommodation and perhaps longer stay.

pleasant, comfortable”
it is the second time that we stay at the Rydges Wellington Hotel. as in the previous time, we were pleased with our room which was large, with a big window looking at the city. the staff were helpful and friendly. there was, as before, a charge of 30 nz dollars a day for the car valet parking, but since it is in the centre of town, it is understandable. the only drawback, -and this seems to be common for the hotels here- is the high cost if we would have wanted to use internet. (you are given 20 minutes free, though) we would not doubt to come back here.

Great location”
Our stay at the Rydges Wellington Hotel was all that we expected. The reception we received upon our arrival was very friendly and helpful. The room that we had was very clean, warm and well appointed. The location of this hotel is very good, just a block from parliament buildings, a very short walk to the centre of shopping and a slightly longer (15min) wqlk to TePapa Museum. We certainly would stay here again.

Great service, lovely stay”
We stayed for a weekend at the Rydges and loved it. We splashed out for a more expensive room and it was well worth it. When we arrived in Wellington I rang to check if a shuttle had been booked to pick us up, it had not, but the staff were very friendly and booked one quickly for us. When we arrived we were upgraded to the harbour side and moved up to a high floor and given drink vouchers at the bar for the inconvenience. The room was lovely and clean, the daily cleaning was great. The spa, pool and sauna were great for the cold days. the hotel has lovely facilities, everything that you need.

Very nice place to stay at and helpful staff”
My parents have spent a night at Rydges Hotel in Wellington and totally loved it. The room, beddings and bathroom were very clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. They would definitely go back to that place any other time. Thank you for taking care of them.

Convenient but noisy”
The staff was really friendly and the standard of the accommodations was very nice. It was also really convenient to the train station! We ran into the following issues, however: Wellington is windy, we know that, but the windows of our 14th floor room shook and rattled so much that we were barely able to sleep. (I'm not being sarcastic in the least -- the lower the floor the better.) Also, the wind came in through the room heater, which was noisy. To be honest, the heater was quite noisy in general operation, even when the wind wasn't blowing through, and we couldn't locate a knob to turn it down as it kept the room rather hot. Additionally, the room safe randomly locked on us. When we reported it, the staff indicated that it was a problem that had happened before. Knowing about it, I feel it should be addressed permanently with a new safe. Finally, there was an ironing board, but no place to properly store it, so it just sat in the room against the wall. It looked a bit class-less for how nice the room was. Like I rated it: overall a superb hotel, but these noted issues should be noted. I would stay here again . . . on a lower floor.

Great hotel, service and location.”
We had a lovely stay at Rydges Wellington. It was close to the football stadium and within walking distance from everywhere we needed to go. The staff were easy to deal with and the rooms were immaculately clean. Thanks to Agoda, we shall be using both again if the need should arise.

Great hotel with wonderful service”
The hotel was in a good part of Wellington for sightseeing. It was a short stroll to the waterfront, also to the super shopping areas of a very lovely city. Staff allowed us to check baggage in early and offered storage and changing facilities when we were leaving. Staff also were more knowledgable and helpful than the local tourist centre.

Great Hotel in central Wellington”
This is without doubt the best Hotel we have stayed in in Wellington. Our room was spacious and fitted out in comfortable new furniture. The location is great, right in the centre of the CBD and convinient to the railway station, bus depot,ferry terminal, and cable car. The only complaints we had were the strange sem-transparent wall that seperated the bathroom and bedroom and the noisy kids playing in the "lap" pool. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

A Great Weekend.”
Very happy with the whole stay, faultless in every way, and probably the best value for money hotel I have stayed in for many years, and with a daughter at Uni in Wellington we now know exactly where we will be staying during all future visits.

Great location”
The hotel is located in the Wellington city area. The room is spacious with a kitchenette. The room was clean, spacious and well decorated. My only grouse would be the bathroom, for it seemed old compared to the rest of the room and the water pressure was not very good. Wellington is a windy city and you can really hear the winds howling throughout the night even with all the windows sealed shut.

Good room, good location, services expensive”
This hotel is in a good central location, close to public transport and inner city sites. I would recommend for an overnight stay if flying into or out of Wellington at odd hours. On the downside, my partner & I had planned on having an early night due to flying very early in the morning and were looking forward to sitting back and watching a movie as Rydges advertised having Skye TV. We were bitterly disappointed that this consisted of 4 sports, 2 news and 1 movie channel for the kids. Thinking we must have been doing something wrong the conceirge gentleman told us that was all that was available but we could buy a movie for NZ$22.50. Very disappointed that if you are going to advertise a service, advertise it properly.
