This hotel is very central for downtown Wellington, and is right across the street from the national museum. We could walk to many restaurants, the harbor, and there's a grocery store next door. The room was clean and well appointed. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had no issues and enjoyed our stay. There was a restaurant in... more

I've had occasion to stay at the Museum Hotel a couple of times this year. The first time, back in June we booked a standard room over the internet and were really impressed with the large, spacious room and enormous bathroom we were given. Although part of the view out the window was straight into an apartment building, we were... more

Checked into a Chaffers Suite for a two night stay for a long weekend. Our room 614 had a lovely view of the harbour, but also had a view of a small parking lot and the conference rooms next door. However we did not really find this a problem. Check in was friendly and fast. The room itself had a... more

It is fantastically located with the restaurant/pub scene of Courtney Place just a short walk (2 blocks) away, and of course the Te Papa museum across the road. Staff were friendly and efficient, the room was large... more

We arrived on a Friday evening to a very happening check in desk that is part... more

We visited the Museum for a special treat before our next baby arrival. We arrived and went up to our lovely spacious room. The views were beautiful and the room was the size of a small apartment. We went to the Hippo for Dinner it was absolutely lovely, the staff were very helpful and the food was delicious! We were... more

We stayed one night at the Museum Hotel during an overnight transit stop in Wellington. We took a shuttle bus from the airport which only cost $20 for the two of us (about 15 min drive). The location is great, across the street from Te Papa museum and the waterfront area. The waterfront promenade around Oriental Bay and the walking... more
