Naumi Studio Wellington

6/10 Okay

"Naumi is in a very central spot in Wellington, walkable distance from anywhere you’d like to go. For our room, unfortunately we were a bit disappointed. The room was very dusty, there were dirty marks on things marks all over the walls. The automatic closing latch on the door was also broken, so half the time the door didn’t close at all, and when it did, you had to physically push it closed yourself to get it to close properly. The sheets on the bed were also not fitted, so they untucked very easily. The beds also seemed like they were on a lean to one side, so felt like you’d roll off while sleeping. Other than that, staff were good, the hotel is nice and it’s in a great location. "

TRYP by Wyndham Wellington, Tory Street

10/10 Excellent

"My second stay here. Fully self-contained room is such a great asset when away from home. I did hear a bit of thumping from a club next door late at night, but didn't inhibit my ability to sleep. Love the proximity to Courtney Place and the theatres. Staff are friendly and professional and the deco-inspired decor is tasteful. Bed slightly too soft for my preference, but won't stop me coming back. "
