Odd layout where you have to manoevre your way through a bar with your suitcase to get to a connecting hallway to get to your room. Whatever you do, don't leave anything behind in the room - you will not get it back. I left a book here and realised shortly after leaving but could not go back for it.... more

Not a holiday destination but if you have a late/early flight the brentwood is fine. Rooms are small by NZ standards probably medium size by european standards. they have a friendly efficient airport shuttle and the staff are helpful. Meals quite nice. my room was clean and quiet. Concidering the planes are close there was virtually no aircraft noise. renevations... more

The Brentwood has a special deal for late arrivals, and we booked this as our plane arrived in Wellington at midnight. All we wanted was a place to sleep before picking up our hire car the next day.

I booked a room directly through the property's own website a month prior to my arrival and guaranteed it with a credit card. I even told them that I would be arriving late. When I arrived after midnight, I was... more

Awful bed, tiny bathroom, no air conditioning (or heating), dodgy neighbourhood. To top it off, they put someone else in my room when I was out... more

Was there for the Lions Tour. We were allocated this hotel and thank goodness we were able to move. It was dreadful - and the fact that it was busy with rugby fans is no excuse, other hotels were fine. The location is not good - $14 taxi ride each way just to get into town. They advertise that the... more
