Great staff member who came to open reception for me after 11 pm. Great friendly communication prior to arrival. I had room 5 and it was perfectly clean and comfortable. Good bed and shower and quiet neighborhood. Very convenient position when coming from the late ferry then travelling up north. ...

The Sebel Wellington Lower Hutt
Booked a river view room at a higher price. I wouldn't class the room as river view had to stand in the corner of the bedroom to get a glimpse of the river. Hotel was not busy booked for two nights via expedia, felt they gave us this room because we paid less.
