Rydges Wellington Airport
The location is second to none. From the foyer straight down the lift and you are in the terminal, rain or shine you do not need to go outside at all. Staff helpful and very friendly. Room had everything you need for overnight stay, we liked our beds beautiful and comfy. Would stay again.

Ramada by Wyndham Wellington Taranaki Street
Was right in town so had to find a park to check in and that was pretty close. The hotel was like a mini apartment and had everything you would need, including washing facilities and liquid. Right in the city.
