A great hotel close to the waterfront. Ideal if you intend to walk the city. There are some great restaurants very close on Majoribanks St, we went to Rosella, but make sure you book ahead as they are small and very popular. The room was big and had everything we wanted. I loved the retro furnishings from the 60/70's The location was excellent. The breakfast in the cafe downstairs was very good. Great coffee as well.

Minimalist style love the idea that old building been transformed to the boutique hotel ❤ Exceptional location. Admirable that such young couple are owners. Also Eva's Garage such a cute addition to the Cobbler Hotel. Little bit sad I haven't met CEO Charlie "the dog" maybe some other time.

    Absolutely amazing exhibits such as Gallipoli and the nature exhibit. My 7 year old Son absolutely loved it. But the only sad note was the propaganda 2 versions of the treaty Climate emergency etc.. There was twice as much info on Maori history compared to colonial or even on how far we've come as a nation taking the country from Bush and swamp and long drop Toilets to the amazing place we all share now.

    This is a must see. We always enjoyed our time here. They have lockers for rent on the first floor if you have bags. It's always a treat to sit in the cafe and have tea and cake after walking around the exhibits. A favorite NZ museum.

    Te Papa Museum is an amazing place.

    Te Papa Museum is an amazing place. The history and preservation of the past are so well done. The Gallipoli museum display is unique and confronting with larger-than-life figures done in such a way that they look life-like. It does exemplify the stupidity of war! Preservation of Maori art and culture is also clearly and respectfully displayed and is well worth seeing. This museum was the real attraction of coming to Wellington for us and it surpassed our expectations.

    If you only have the day, then Te Papa is where to spend it. The WW1 exhibit is breathtaking, and they have used the time it was closed to improve a lot of the areas. Even if you've been here many times, it is always worth a see.

    Absolute must for any visit to Wellington.

    Absolute must for any visit to Wellington. Full of great historical exhibits about the Maori people and culture, and about the history and lifestyles of the European settlers, even though the way they developed the country must now be regarded as questionable. There are also frequent special exhibitions which are always unmissable.

    We spent two nights here and really enjoyed the studio, so close to Te Papa museum and within easy walking distance of the CBD. We cooked breakfast twice and this worked well in the kitchenette. Comfortable bed and bathroom, and quiet room, we slept well. Would definitely stay here again when visiting Wellington! The Belen vegan bakery is only a 2 minute walk away and has some of the best doughnuts we have ever had, so make sure to stop there when staying here.

    Nice location few minutes walk from Te Papa museum and the waterfront. In fact I walked to most of the tourist attractions in Wellington from this hostel. The only minor let down was the kitchen cleanliness which I know is a shared space and it is every guest responsibility to keep the space clean so hard to enforce.

    Very friendly staff, specially at Reception. Also great location, pretty close to bus stops (Airport Bus) and Te Papa Museum. Spacious room, and lucky to have a decent view from ours on the 8th floor. Apartment we stayed needs some TLC and a deep clean, mainly kitchen and bathroom.
