We arrived before 3 and were hoping to be able to park in the Rydges carpark but had to follow a very hard to see map to Stout St. We didn't like the back up parking building becsause it was very tight to negotiate the up/down ramps. We were on Level 8 of the hotel and there seemed to be noise in the level above, dragging furniture type noise.

Heater in the room not working, make up from a previous guest stuck to bathroom door, Housekeeping would only ever do half the job( left dirty towels, pillows on the floor, not topping up complimentary coffee), also got charged for mini bar expense despite taking nothing.

Literally, my only complaint about this place is that we asked for water and never received it and then the next morning when I went to check out, I saw that they had put water on a room service bill. I was quite annoyed by that. Other than that, which was a staff issue issue, The place was great. The town itself is so much more worthwhile than I had even expected. We were just stopping in Wellington on our way down to the south island. I would highly recommend staying in Wellington a couple of days to really enjoy all it has to offer .

Would be great to have more than 2 coat hangers in the room, when requested it took 2 requests before getting them 24hours later. Sink overfow surrounded with grime. Although cooking facilities were in the room, there were no pots, pans or utensils available, also nothing to clean dishes with. Phone in the room was either not working or nobody was responding when called. Portlander, however, was great with awesome staff. Overall I'm not sure I would stay again or recommend the property to others.
