"Convenient location, easy to walk around, many tourist attractions, close to harbour "

"We stayed in a 2 bedroom suite. It was modern and stylish. It had everything we needed and more as there were complementary treats in the room. The beds were comfortable, and the room was quiet with road noise only audible if you went out on to the balcony and even then it was no problem at all. The staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast is obviously basic but very good. The location is excellent. We highly recommend this hotel."

"Overall our stay at Quest was great. Good value for money, spotlessly clean (immaculate), high quality amenities, excellent and very fast customer service, very quiet and private room with a view of the city (we requested the room has a view as we heard that some don't). The only thing lacking was any kind of restaurant/food service aside from a very basic and pricey continental breakfast. The weather was terrible while we were there, and we definitely would have made use of room service if there'd been some options. Instead we ordered uber eats, and met the driver at the hotel door (we weren't sure he'd be able to find reception as it's located in the 4th floor and the main doors are locked at night, making it a little tricky). There were only a couple of minor things that we didn't like: 1. The heat pump faced the bed and blew cold air directly onto it, so we had to turn it off at night. We couldn't find a good temperature for the room using the heat pump, it was either too cold or too hot. But when we turned it off (after heating or cooling a little bit), the room would keep the temperature well. 2. There was a ventilation system going continuously and I personally found the sound a little annoying, but nothing terrible. 3. The first thing I wanted to do when we arrived was open the window to let in some fresh air, but I found it locked shut. Personally I'd rather not breathe aircon air, it dries out the nasal passages and skin. However it was tolerable for a short trip."

"The price to stay 4 people at such late notice was very very reasonable for one night."

"I requested a room with twin beds. Both beds were large and extremely comfortable. The room was very spacious and the bathroom was excellent."

"Quite a trek to the room. 2 different elevators, plus a walk."

"I organised a birthday lunch, most people were from out of town so we all stayed there. The organisation was painless, they were so helpful and communication was excellent. On the day it was perfect and the food was exceptional. They were so helpful in every aspect of the weekend, would highly recommend them and would certainly only every stay there again in Wellington"

"Only the one small elevator operating was a problem when trying to access with bags, was never enough room particularly when you were situated on the middle floors when you were never first to get on."

"Great place to stay. Friendly, helpful staff at reception. Twin room was clean and comfortable. Good location and vibe. Would stay again."
