Top Te Papa Hotel Reviews

Quest 256 Lambton

8/10 Good

"Everything was great except it was a real shame that when we arrived about 1 hour after check in, our room was still not made up and the bed was a mess."

Aura Hotel

2/10 Terrible

"If you enjoyed the backrooms horror movie this is for you. When we first arrived, I called the late check in line and they demanded my full credit card information otherwise I wasn’t allowed to check in. On top of that, I was required to pay a $100 fee if I only told them my last four digits instead of my whole credit card. There are no ventilation from the ground floor up, no windows in your room so it feels like a prison. On the second floor, there is a door that is so rigid that it takes me out every time I try opening it. The whole set up is filthy and creepy and I would not feel safe walking bare foot here."

Microtel by Wyndham Wellington

8/10 Good

"Good place to rest your head at nights, shower box is a little weird as just frosted glass surrounding it and huge gap when u close the bathroom door, option to park uncover with a small vehicle @$35/night, alternative is council street paid parking which is quite expensive and restrictive that would be the main negative, positive is it is very central to most places"
