The room was quite small, but perfect for a single person, and the rate was excellent. The desk and restaurant staff were all friendly and professional. I was able to walk to Te Papa and Circa Theatre which was the purpose of my stay and Bay Plaza was the ideal location at a good price.

Joseph

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean but the furnishing were very dated and in my opinion in need of a facelift. Also the rooms and hallways still have dated carpeting and I also believe these need to be replaced as well. One last point, the windows are older and not soundproof and you could hear the wind throughout the night (i was on the 9th floor)...not a complaint but an observation. The staff were awesome - friendly and very helpful.

The room was lovely the service was great and the view from our window was fantastic. Sadly a wee bit ruined by the lack of sound proofing one night ruined by music and talking to 4am and another by having to listen to a couple having loud sex.

Came to Wellington for The Food Show which is held at The Stadium the other end of town but this year wanted to stay in a different part of CBD. Bay Plaza Hotel was an easy walk from the Airport bus route and staff were welcoming and happy to store bags until room was ready. Room was spacious enough to be shared by 2 friends and the frequent buses made it easy to get around. Will happily stay again when visiting Wellington.
