The Sebel Wellington Lower Hutt

The Sebel Wellington Lower Hutt

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay here was absolutely amazing! Our room was spotless and luxurious. Loved the complimentary coffee and tea. Room service was amazing and staff were very friendly. We took our 11 month with us and the staff were very accommodating supplying a Portacot. We had breakfast down stairs as well and the lovely staff member would hold and entertain our baby boy when he got a bit restless and let us finish our breakfast. Will definitely be back and highly recommend ☺️"
