Boulcott Suites, Wellington

Just a quick day in Wellington before catching the ferry. Boulcott is well positioned to walk to most things in the central district. Staff was very helpful with plans, luggage, and ordering a taxi to the ferry terminal.

This apartment hotel is fantastic. A very nice woman greated us at reception when we arrived early in the morning after our flight home was cancelled. She stored our luggage and facilitated to get the room ready as quickly as possible. The appartment is very clean, beautifully appointed and furnished in a contemporary. The kitchen is stocked with all necessary utensils and dishes. In our unit all these items were very well maintained. We had a small balcony with a nice view of a church and the local hills. There is a steep staircase taking you right up to the Victoria University near by. The location is right in the middle of City Life but it was quite. You can walk everywhere from there. This place is also perfect for a longer stay. We would definitly stay here again. The only small improvement I can think of is to add a soap shelve in the shower and maybe a hook but the bathroom is great otherwise and the laundry and dryer is so handy. One tip though: be aware that electric dryers take a long time to dry clothing.

Perfectly located, with friendly staff. A fifteen-minute walk to the great museum (Te Tapa). Highly recommended.

Perfect location Hard to find initially

Parking can be a problem. We hadn't reserved a space, but luckily, the hotel clerk had an open handicapped spot she was able to give us right at the front door of the hotel. The room was small but we could have lived there - a full kitchen, washer and dryer (which was greatly appreciated). We sat above a street with an active pub, but the double glass windows kept the noise down. We enjoyed looking out at all the street activity. Hotel is within walking distance of major shopping street, museum and botanic gardens so we never moved our car.
