A great hotel in the airport, with a comfy big bed and quiet surroundings. The only downside was that I had to leave the room at 3am to get my flight…..which was as simple as going downstairs to check in. Next time I shall book a later flight 😊

Convenient stay within the airport terminal

Overall, a very good stay. The only negative comment is the very soft bed which I found uncomfortable for a good night's sleep.

I got into the Wellington airport very late at night and it was so convenient to just walk a few steps inside to get to my room. It was spacious and the bed was comfortable. I will be returning the day before my flight departs because it's so convenient.

Superb hotel, highly recommend! It was so easy to get to, right in the airport, with great signage. It was modern, clean and comfortable. The room was so quiet, slept really well here. It has a great restaurant and bar too. Staff were brilliant. I have literally nothing bad to say, loved it here.
