Staying here is like being inside a plush art museum. The communal areas are decorated with heavy furnishings and an eclectic collection of exotic artwork. Positioned by Wellington's waterfront, the QT Wellington is just a few minutes’ walk from the diverse shopping, dining, entertainment and nightlife that New Zealand’s capital has to offer.
The property comprises two separate sections: the hotel wing and the residence wing. Almost every wall features individual artworks, many of which are for sale, and all of which have a story behind them. Other facilities include a restaurant and bar, which take advantage of the harbour views, as well as a gym, pool and sauna.
OUR OPINION:
This stylish property has an unbeatable city location, and offers guests a more personal experience than many other Wellington hotels. We particularly like the one-off pieces of artwork displayed around the hotel, which really show off the character and creativity that Wellington is known for.
