Ohtel Wellington, located in Oriental Bay, offers guests a 5-star experience from the personalised service and luxurious accommodation.

We loved the hotel. Bedroom was beautiful with everything you would want including mini kitchen. Room was cleaned daily and staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Our bedroom had a small porthole window and not the large windows and view we wished we had. However, this did not prevent us from enjoying our stay in this hotel. Location was excellent.

Situated in Wellington, within 1.5 km of Freyberg Beach and less than 1 km of TSB Bank Arena, The Cobbler Hotel features free WiFi.

Great location in the heart of Wellington close to numerous restaurants and cafes. The room was very clean and comfortable with a lot of little extras provided - e.g. bathrobes, chocolates. Loved the interesting decor and the way a historic building has been transformed into a boutique hotel.

    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. 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.

    Very friendly staff, specially at Reception. Also great location, pretty close to bus stops (Airport Bus) and Te Papa Museum. Spacious room, and lucky to have a decent view from ours on the 8th floor. Apartment we stayed needs some TLC and a deep clean, mainly kitchen and bathroom.

    The view over harbour from 13th floor apartment was delightful - constantly changing. Excellent location for access to harbour, easy walks to Te Papa museum etc, cable car to Botanic Garden and Zealandia. Staff at Reception very helpful with several issues - but a failed light globe could not be replaced during our 4 days because the maintenance person was unwell. Guest laundry useful - less expensive and much easier than commercial laundromat - none close by.

    Very easy to book online. Excellent communication from hotel staff. Arrived early so dropped off my bag and went to Te Papa museum & food shopping. Received call to let me know when my room was ready. I would like to say 'thanks' to Fabien - extremely helpful and polite. Nothing seemed too much trouble for him. A great stay and would highly recommend.
