      "Beautiful garden hotel" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 18, 2013

      We loved the hotel. We had a lovely large room in a garden like setting. The kitchenette was very convenient. It was a 20 minute drive to downtown Wellington and the interislander ferry. Free internet was provided up to a download limit. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

      "Great find, right in the heart of things" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 7, 2013

      Everything about this space was positive, unless you consider walking 2 blocks to the parking lot a negative. A surprise perk was the availability, in our suite, of a washer and dryer. Loved it!

      "Super location and view" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 7, 2013

      Located on the Wellington waterfront the hotel is far enough out from the city center (15 minute walk) as to be reasonably quiet yet close enough t o easily walk to the Te Papa Museum, cable car, and waterfront activities. Just around the corner from the hotel is a large food store and just beyond that is a large selection of restaurants. The staff were helpful in suggesting where to go and in calling a taxi for us when we checked out to head for the ferry dock. WiFi is available free for 30 minutes in the lobby, or if you buy two drinks at the bar you'll get two hours access via hotel wide WiFi.

      "Friendly, comfortable" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 30, 2013

      We needed an overnight stay before catching an early morning ferry crossing. Upon checkin we were given accurate and helpful information about the commute in to the ferry terminal, and suggestions for dining nearby. The room was comfortable, with a kitchenette, the only thing lacking was a kitchen sink, but it appeared that there was new plumbing to address this problem. More than we expected for our budget friendly rate.

      "Good location" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Dec 28, 2012

      The hotel was located right in a trendy part of town. The next block over was a walking mall with lots of shops and ethnic (any) restaurants. It was easy to catch a bus to the zoo or museums or shop from here. We did have to take a cab to the train station and from the ferry (too far to walk, but not an expensive cab ride either). The only questionable thing about the room was the shower. It is a modern design with no door. I guess your body is supposed to block the water, but our drain didn't work, so the whole bathroom floor was wet and became slick and dangerous.

    We stayed over a week, and with the steep discounts at 5 nights and over, it was cheaper than a hostel would've been for the two of us. The hotel is... aged, but it is not without charm because of it. The staff is very helpful, and the location, directly across from the Botanic Gardens, can't be beat. The Wi-fi was spotty, but free. If you are looking for budget accommodations and your priorities include the privacy of your own room and bathroom, I recommend Silver Oaks over any hostel. I would definitely stay here again, even for a shorter stay. Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 6, 2013

    The room was clean although everything was easily 20 years old. The TV had two channels and there was no internet. The shower head was at the height appropriate for a 5' tall person at best and the wall in the shower was rotting in places. But the price was right and in general, pretty quiet. Cheaper than a backpacker for a couple and having your own […] bathroom is a huge plus! Just a note that this hotel is sort of out of the main area and is a bit of a haul from the main part of town. The good part is that it is literally across the street from the entrance to the botanical gardens and a very quaint street. Just note if you''ve never been to Wellington, it's super hilly! DO not attempt to cut through the botanical gardens as you will climb over a major hill. You can take the cable car up and then walk down the other side but I recommend walking around the gardens and taking bowen street into town. Read more

    The hotel was very cute and quaint. The restaurant was apparently closed while we stayed, but still offered the continental breakfast, but it wasn't much. The rooms were somewhat small, but perfect for just using as a place to sleep, clean and leave your personal belongings while exploring the city and locations. We did not spend much time in the hotel, […] but we didn't need to because there were so many things to do that was in town and the bus line stopped right in front of the hotel, which was very convenient, went straight in to the city. The hotel was perfect for me and my travel companion because we never intended to stay in the hotel while we were in town. The time spent in the hotel room, we utilized the free WiFi to keep in touch with family, friends via Facebook or other internet based communication. Read more

    Very cheap hotel for Wellington... but it's so not a hotel. It may have been in the 1970's (original "decor"). This place is incredibly run-down and in need of renovation. The botanical gardens are right across the street (this is the only saving grace). The view of the gardens would be incredible if you could open the curtains (bring clips and some […] windex to clean the filthy window). Bring your own sheets or a sleeping bag if you go. This hotel is rather far flung from the city. It is bus accessible however... just don't ask the front desk for which bus to catch. I did not eat at the restaurant there as it was like a ghost town...as was the bar. You are much better off staying elsewhere. Read more

    It is close to the botanical gardens, and the bus to downtown stops right out front. The receptionists are pretty helpful; I asked a million questions and they were pretty nice about answering. But overall, I felt that the quality of room I got was about what I'd been getting in hostels, but at triple the price.

    The room was somewhat ok however the bed sheets and the towels in the bathroom needs to be changed there was no liquid soap available and the soap that was provided was not enough for 2 adults and a child not enough towels for the occupants they need to change the taps in the basin and increase the water pressure and height in the shower.

    For less than $60 a night you won't get Sky TV, pictures on the wall or room service. You will get 'geographic" carpet and worn out interior decoration. You will have free car parking, clean rooms, and a $2 bus trip to the city centre with buses more frequent than many metros I have used.. That is, if you are too lazy for the 10-15 minute downhill walk […] through the Rose Gardens. If you are driving to Welly, happy with continental breakfasts and a 200m walk to a selection of Welly's best restaurants this place can't be beat. Join iSky, take your laptop as wifi is free!!

    We were disappointed with the duty manager. He lacked customer service skills and was extremely rude. we had a bit of argument as we checked in late and there was no parking. The manager was not helpful at all and said he is not responsible for parking. We were very upset with the poor customer service.

Would stay there again if it wasn't for the rude […] staff which totaly ruined the whole stay, we did not complain about anything just asked basic questions like how much is the bus, what do you serve for breakfast etc which we thought was not to much of a request as there was no hotel or area information in the room, not to fond of getting barked at by staff!

However one of the reception staff was very rude […] when i asked him about the restaurant downstairs and its opening hours and the room service facilities. He was also very rude when i asked him what restaurants were good close by. However the two gentleman working when i checked in and out were extremely helpful and cheerful. Overall great location and room was confortable and very spacious.

    Our trip to Wellington was nice, the hotel was fine to sleep in.Very dated,in need of a lot of paint,paper and carpet.The staff moral was not too good.the bus stops at the door was good and $2 to town made all the eateries really good as we didnt fancy asking if the hotel restaurant was up to it as the breakfast was certainly not worth the money.

    I got an excellent room rate for the night but realised why once I got to the hotel. Unfortunately the room and facilities were well below standard. But, the location is excellent, parking great because it was free, and the staff were very friendly. I would recommend it to friends purely on the price, but would have to warn them rooms are below standard, […] e.g. shower mouldy, broken glass, curtain mouldy, water drained onto floor and then drain smelled. It was a hot stuffy room, lights broken, hairdryer didn't work and smelled like burning when switched on, coffee cup sticky marks left on shelf under cups. Read more
