Gilmer Apartment Hotel

Location location location, follow the reception instructions to use the neighbouring parkade elevator down the Lambton. Room was small but well appointed, loveseat, kitchenette, press coffee, big TV, comfy bed, bathroom ok size. Super clean, perhaps recently renovated. Plush carpet great after a long day walking Wellington. washer/dryer was a total bonus, typical European style, takes hours to dry, but works. Check out Boulcutt Bistro 100 meters away!

Location in central city. Although tucked away off the main streets, the easy to follow printed instructions on the shortcut for walking to Lambourne Quay road was fantastic. Short & easy walk to airport express bus stop. Staff at front desk welcoming and helpful. Room was well set out and spacious with bedroom and separate sitting area and kitchenette area. Furniture in good condition - have stayed in other accommodation during my trip where lounge chairs needed a good clean, not so here, furniture was all in good condition Appreciated the small milks in the fridge; many thanks. Comfortable bed, good shower, great having Netflix. Room very clean. Cheers 👍

Accommodation: just like a small apartment. Has cooking facilities, a washing/drier machine is available (Gilmer Apartment even supply the washing powder). Comfortable bed and apartment serviced daily. Clean and very quiet at night. Stayed 4 nights. Location was excellent. Great access to shops, restaurant's / cafes included a supermarket. Ask Gilmer staff about the shortcut via carpark lift to Willis Street. Easy walking distance to Te Papa Museum and Wellington Maritime Musuem, free admission to both. A must do is a ride on the Wellington Cable Car, at the top the view of Wellington is fantastic, and you are able to catch a free shuttle to Zealandia (fully fenced urban ecosanctuary).

Staff were so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, they gave us great tips on where to dine, what to see / do and the easiest way to get there. That level of service was unexpected but appreciated. Nothing was too much trouble. Parking was a breeze (but book in advance - cost is $25 / night which is great for the heart of the CBD!). Room was ample size, beds was extra comfy and the in room washer / dryer was again unexpected but super convenient travelling with kids in winter!

We appreciated the early checkin and parking space. Location is very convenient once you understand you need to go through an underground carpark across the street to access the town center. Information is well explained on a pamphlet. Coffee is with a plunger which we appreciated. Housekeeping was good. Bed was comfortable. I recommend this hotel.
