We found this hotel to be convenient to all we wanted to do during our stay in Wellington. Being near the Te Papa Museum and the harbour front was ideal. We ate our first nights meal there and breakfast the next morning and both were very good. More

This is the second time we've stayed in this older style hotel and we found the staff extremely helpful. The location is superb and our room had a fantastic view overlooking the city, harbour and we could see the stunning Christmas tree. The room was a little dated in its decor but spacious and comfortable. The shower worked well but... More

Spent last weekend at Bay Plaza in Wellington... Arrived up in the Wellington early on the Friday for a work Xmas Do... I choose the Hotel because it located at the end of Courtney Place... The room was very clean and dated... the bath room was very dated (something from the 50s-60s---- could a set in Te Papa)... The view... More

Tidy hotel in a great location. Staff were efficient to deal with, and the rate for the night was fairly cheap. Parking only an extra $15, compared to more than double this at other nearby hotels. More

The reception staff were unfailingly helpful, courteous and pleasant. The hotel foyer gives a false impression of a modern hotel;... More

Un- locked the door to a smell that was confirmed by lots of mould ! Broken TV & remote, both covered in black hand prints! The bathroom, body and soap build up! House keeping hasn't heard that the bed is on wheels, so move it to clean up, past guest's mess ! When booking in staff was friendly, when she... More

I stayed for 2 nights , this hotel was recommended through the conference organiser, must say I expected better facilities. View was superb if only the windows had been cleaned, I could have taken photos of the harbour! A safe and solid old building, loved the old style tiles in the bathroom and the fact that the bath tub is... More
