“Overall great accomodation”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

We wanted to change rooms to have a spa bath and that was no issue, quickly done. It was right in the centre of Johnsonville and very close to motorways etc. Clean, modern and comfortable.

I stayed here for a few days and had a great time. The staff was really warm and friendly always giving me extra hot chocolate. I really liked the shower pressure, best in NZ!!

“Excellent stay close to Wellington but noisy”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 December 2011

I stayed here for one night on my way to an early ferry from Wellington. The directions I was given were great as it is tucked away up a lane behind KFC. The undercover basement parking is great and from there acess to the hotel reception is via a lift. Check in was all very straightforward. The one-bedroom unit was spacious with a queen size bed in the living area and two single beds in the bedroom. There was a small kitchenette in the living area, but unfortuantely the microwave didn't work. The bathroom was large and with a shower over the bath.
Unfortuantely my room was very noisy as it was on the side of the hotel that backed onto the motorway and the traffic didn't stop until late at night and then started again early in the morning so not a very peaceful night. I have read several reviews that comment how quiet the hotel is - they absolutely must have stayed on the other side of the hotel. I would stay again, but only if I could be guaranteed a room on the quiet side of the hotel.
It is a little misleading to say that it is a Wellington Hotel/Motel as in non-peak traffic it takes 15 mins to drive into central Wellington, but this is still a very convenient location. Walking distance to local shops and takeaways.

Room Tip: Request a room on the quiet side of the hotel away from the motorway. Get driving directions as it...

“Warm Welcome, Fantastic Location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011

The Best Western Wellington is absolutely fantastic, I would highly recommend this place to anyone. From the moment we walked in to the time we left the service was amazing. The rooms were cleaned to a very high standard and the selection of teas & coffees in the room was great. The rooms are modern and very comfortable. It is walking distance to a variety of shops and supermarket, if you don't have a car the train station is also close by. I have since recommended this place to friends, they have stayed and also had the same wonderful experience Thank you for making us feel at home, we will be back.

“Fanatastic Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 December 2011

Very impressed with this place and would recommend to anyone. On arrival we were greeted with a very warm welcome by a wonderful couple(manangers) who made us feel special, they were also extremely helpful with what ever I required nothing was too much trouble for them.
The room was very clean and the decor very modern with all facilities covered. It was lovely to come back to the motel after a big day out and soak in the spa with the free latest magazines. It was also very quiet at night with the most comfortable beds and pillows.
One of the guest staying with me who travels the world said it is the best shower he has ever had in a Motel anywhere in the world.
Shops, Transport,Restaurants all close by.
Totally recommend you stay here. I will be back for sure.
