Rydges Wellington Airport

Excellent location. Had to overnight in Wellington before an early flight so it was a no-brainer to stay here. Quiet room, clean and had everything we needed, with a good shower. Flight was around 6am so we checked bags, grabbed a coffee and went back to the room to wait until boarding time. Staff on reception very helpful and friendly. Would have liked room service but there was no menu in the room. No problem, just popped downstairs to the airport terminal.

Bed was very good. Rooms are well set up. Breakfast choices very good. Front of house staff were great - back room teams do a great job under challenging circumstances. Airport location is good but need to use airport parking building was a pain. Wellington weather maintained its poor reputation......Rooms: 5/5

Gorgeous luxury at an affordable price and an excellent option for those flying out at a very early hour the next morning. Huge, very comfortable soft bed and pillows, and a fantastic shower with great pressure. I just have a few minor complaints: 1 It would be helpful if a sticker could be placed on the phone in the room, advising that the room service menu is on the TV screen under channel X whatever it is. 2 We spent ages trying to work out how to turn the main and bathroom lights on! Turns out you need to use your room swipe/security guard to do this a sticker above the light switch to advise of this would be helpful. 3 Checking in on Sunday, 23 October was a lengthy wait - please assign more staff as we were waiting over 20 minutes; 4 it would be helpful if a sentence could be added to the confirmation email advising that there are drop-off parks immediately outside the hotel - guests don't have to drive into any of the airport parks.

Liked · The location of the hotel is ideal if you are flying in or out. You can take the stairs or escalator up from within the airport meaning not getting cold, no taxi and ideal after a long flight. Disliked · I arrived at 3.30pm - half an hour after check-in, I was expecting after a 3-hour drive to be able to quickly get checked in and be able to go up to my room. Travelling with my 2-year-old nonverbal autistic son after a long drive, this is vital. I was told the housekeepers were still cleaning and would be a few minutes. Half an hour later and a son running amuck I finally get in. This is infuriating as the room cost $339 for only 1 night and I couldn't even make every hour count. The staff weren't very helpful and never offered to help with my luggage after waiting so long and now having a very impatient child. The room isn't the biggest but the problem is having too much furniture and stuff that's not needed. The mirror was not clean, and the cleaners left behind a disgusting dirty cloth on the benchtop. There was only enough coffee, milk and sugar for 1 per adult. At the price it was disappointing. Would only stay again in future if I absolutely have no other option. Also the Reception person gave my son a large chocolate bar without even consulting me first.

This place was perfect for our needs. We travelled as a family of four mum, dad, two kids who are 3 & 1 and found the entire experience very convenient. We arrived 16/12/2022 on the midnight flight and accessed the hotel directly from the terminal a god send when you are carting luggage and two sleepy babies, checked in with ease and went straight up to the room. We booked a family room which is two adjoining rooms - main room has a large king bed, and the other room two singles. Amenities are all brand new, towels and bedding were so comfortable. Front of house staff always ready to assist. We returned again on 30/12/2022 for an early morning flight back to Australia on 31/12, and the experience again was just as pleasing. The location is just prime - parking available right outside the front of the hotel, and you're able to access all of the vendors within the airport for us, it was food and the car hire company that was most important without having to battle the famous winds of Wellington. Pricing: 16/12 I paid AUD$615.00 for one night and on 30/12 I paid AUD$559.00 for one night also - For me the price was well worth it. We had access to two full sized bedrooms, everything mentioned above, and it just made our lives that much easier navigating travel at tricky times with two young children. 10/10 would absolutely stay again.

Good value for money considering the location. Ideal for early check ins. Stayed twice, first room was very tight with the travel cot, second time the room was much more generous and had a runway view.Rooms: 4/5

Awesome hotel located right inside the Wellington airport precinct. My room had views of the runway so 8 spent half a hour just watching the aircraft jets and propeller coming and going. The tv has a gazillion channels, just plenty there to watch. The restaurant was incredibly busy, but staff still got our meals to us quickly. Well cooked and presented meals with a fresh taste. Awesome service today, I was in a pickle due to a flight being returned to Wellington after not being able to land at home due to weather. Reception sorted me a room with no issues, quick, friendly efficient service. Can't ask for more. Walkability: Being out at the airport you will need transportation to get to Wellington CBD. On the upside if you're staying to fly out, it's a two minute walk to the check in areas.

Fantastic hotel. Love their rooms. Not that impressed with the service when we hired a meeting room for the day. For the price you think it would be tidied at lunch and water would be provided.

Wow what an expensive disappointment. Premium price, no breakfast, it's just weird not to be included. If I'm paying top price I expect perfection.... its not what I got Carpark Door and valet service was operational. Due to a lift breakdown. Arrived at 5:15pm to find dirty dishes left on the hallway floor... according to coworkers all floors were like this. In my king single room. Very little guest info, limited info on TV. Broken side lamp, taped up. Poor cleaning in shower, noisy fridge, wobbly toilet seat

Spent nearly a week at this site where we held examinations. Rooms were well proportioned, both restaurants provided an adequate range of offerings. Staff at this site were fantastic, no request was to big or small. They attended to everything for us, this made the whole process relatively stress free.Rooms: 5/5
