A beautifully restored and refurbished ex-military hospital. Stunning setting within an amphitheatre of forested areas. Rooms are immaculate. A real ‘retreat’. Modern, classy, spacious, clean, comfortable. The owners have done a superb job with this property.

I liked the fact that I was able to book at short notice.
There was no phone in the room and I could not dial out from the phone on the hall, so I had to use the phone in reception.

Room was mostly clean and well-furnished, although the window sill in the bathroom needed cleaning. My room didn't have a separate sink to wash dishes in which was not convenient, though I was staying when the housekeeping were off work so maybe they replace your dishes when they're at work. Having a portable fan in the room during summer is greatly appreciated. Overall the hotel offered safe, affordable accommodation with good views and if I'm in the area again I'll be happy to stay again

One thing I didn’t like. Lights not bright enough to read by. And so many pillows and cushions. If you don’t use them nowhere to put them. Otherwise excellent

Love this place.

Thoroughly enjoyed it. Was weird really. Close to the motorway and river but felt like country - go figure :-)
The history of the building is interesting and the staff are fabulous. Really friendly and totally welcoming.
The units/apartments are delightful - an old feel in a modern atmosphere.
Will definitely be back. Don't skip this one.

Throughout the night, a horrible noise woke us up a few times. Upon check out, we reported this to the very friendly front office assistant, and a man we assume is a manager overheard and came closer. We recorded the sound on a video and played it for him. After some thinking, he said it was the bathroom towel rail, which was probably on a high setting, and the heating water was the cause of the noise. I then stated that we turned off the power switches. He then referred back to the heat setting, which is apparently separate from the power switches. I told him that as people new to New Zealand, we were unaware that the rail had separate settings. Our heat rail is switched and off at home by a power switch next to the light switch. He then said that if we had called throughout the night, he would have come and changed the heat rail's setting, and the noise would've been gone.
In all honestly, we did not think of that. We are not argumentative people. A simple "sorry about that" would suffice. But that is not what he did. He turned it around as if we were at fault. First, for not knowing to turn down a heat setting we did not know existed, and then for not calling them in the middle of the night.
This should never have happened. The rail is not supposed to make such a horrid sound.
All in all, I feel that this is one of those places where when it is good, it is great, but if something undesirable happens, it is a "sucks to be you" situation for the client.

Our go to place to stay when in the Wellington area. Clean, quiet and safe with friendly staff, and easy access off and on to the motorway!

Super easy check in. Staff were wonderful, responsive, welcoming. The room was cosy, warm on our arrival, snd very clean. Beds very comfy.
The wifi in our room was really spotty which was a challenge as I needed it for work during the days. It was much better in other parts of the property. Check that before choosing a room if good wifi is critical while you’re there.

It was lovely. I didnt like that apartment 3 did not have a ramp for my walker to get up and down easier. I did not ike the old style heaters to be honest, it took a while for the room to heat up.

Property was fine, booking procedures, and checking in so bad we were finally not charged by a remarkably understanding owner.
His staff are simply not supporting him, such a waste of what could be a great place to stay. You cannot run accomodation with no staff any whereafter 5 pm. We had notified that we would be there before 7 due to flight time, assured someone would greet us, it took over an hour and knocking on many doors all over a very large resort to find the owner. Full credit to him he was charming and helpful in every way, large excellent accommodation.

nice and peculiar place (was a war hospital in WWII) in the middle of the green bush. room big, brand new and very clean. nice people at reception. only drawback was wifi which is free but only up to 500mb data which means you are shut down after some photos upload and few mins of internet. it's only hotel we found so far in New Zeland with such limitation in data usage
