A stay in this old Victorian building is something very special. The rooms are decorated with a lot of love, very clean and cosy. The host is very friendly, gives you good tips for restaurants and offers a rich breakfast. The house is located very close to the city center and you have a view over the ocean.

We stayed in the Carlton Gore B&B for two nights. Although the B&B is well presented and Janice is a great hostess, the layout was not quite right for us as a family. We stayed in the Akaroa and Blue rooms which were on opposite sides of a corridor and shared a bathroom further along. When we were there on... More

We stayed two nights at this lovely B&B. We flew in and took a taxi from the airport which was simple and cost effective. The location is wonderful, being up on a steep hill overlooking the bay and surrounded by historic timber homes. The Carlton Gore is a beautifully presented, very large property with attention to detail in every nook... More

My husband and I stayed here for two nights as part of a three week trip through New Zealand. Perched up on a hill our room overlooked the city though we were at the far end. While we had a car parking in Wellington was inconvenient and expensive we opted to leave our car at the hotel and walk. While... More

We had the pleasure of staying at Carlson Gore for 3 nights in the French room. We were very impressed with the beautiful new vintage home and the high quality of the finishing. Janice was very welcoming and helpful in suggestions for restaurants, sight seeing, and she even invited us to join her at her tennis club when I expressed... More

We spent three nights at the Carlton Gord B & B. Our host Janice Davies was very welcoming and upgraded us to a larger room without additional cost. The B & B is located on a hill in a quiet neighborhood above the harbor. We walked into town every day; a pleasant walk along the harbor. It took us about... More

We stayed here for one night prior to taking the ferry to the South Island. Janice is a welcoming host. The guest rooms are on a separate level to the rest of the house with their own communal areas and coffee and tea were always available there. Our room was not particularly large but quite adequate with room for our... More

Lovely host and charming rooms. The B&B sits high on a bluff with fabulous views - easy walk into Wellington for those that enjoy a brisk walk. Breakfasts were wonderful - met several delightful fellow travelers around scrumptious meals. Our room was one of the smaller rooms - but still very comfortable and lovely decorations. Hosts are most helpful with... More

There was a sitting room for the guests and another room where you can help yourself to tea and coffee. The location was perfect with... More
