“This hotel certainly has personality, dialed up with an art collection that feels both curated and wonderfully eccentric. Dining here goes beyond the ordinary, especially at Hippopotamus, where the views are as striking as the Franco-Asian cuisine. It's a stylish base for exploring Wellington, particularly if you appreciate a bit of playful luxury.”
