Great hotel and service. Just wasn't close too much, didn't really mind as it was wellington and everything was close together. Just slightly inconvenient. Also there was a small leak in the shower that let water leak onto the bathroom floor

Noisy, dated and deceptive.
Rooms are small and dated. You can hear clear conversations of the guests in the next room. There is no air conditioning, no ventilation in bathroom. The shower is from the 1960s. Mattresses are also dated and can feel the springs. They over sell car parking so you have to end up parking on the footpath and still pay. We stayed on a Friday night and in the elevator was advertised as $10 gin day from 4pm. They did not honor this after 6pm. This is misleading advertising. I would not stay here again and will also be adding to our corporate do not stay list.

Atura Wellington is an appropriately priced basic hotel. It has everything you need in a hotel. I like its location. Easy walk past the Parliament buildings into town. Car parking is not a challenge at this time of year or for those who know the tricks of city parking for free.

Worth the price
I booked the cheapest room and it was small but everything inside felt luxurious. The linens were clean and pristine. The elevator/lift had extra security feature of taping room key to access floors. The food and coffee were even good. I loved the view of the city from my room. Outstanding.

Thorndon feels unlike the rest of Wellington, it has its own vibe, so to stay in a pleasant hotel there was fine. 2 min walk to great supermnarket, and 5 min to railway station.

We had a great experience at the Atura and would like to give a special thanks to the staff for letting us keep our luggage with them after checkout since our car had been compromised in Taupo on the trip down. Much appreciated from both of us.
