Comfy and convenient
Pros:

We needed somewhere to stay last minute as we had an unexpected visit to the hospital across the road. The location was convenient, the facilities were great, and having a kitchenette and coffee machine were a bonus. After spending some time with our loved one in hospital, it was nice to be able to come back to a clean place with comfy beds.
And the staff were friendly and accommodating as well.

Cons:

No complaints.

Highly rated staff and accommodation
Pros:

I stayed at the Riddiford st. The location was perfect for me as it was very accessible to the hospital adjacent as it suited my needs at this time.
I could not fault the cleanliness, comfort and friendliness of staff, they were efficient and extremely kind. They did everything possible to make my stay comfortable and easy.
The after after hours entrance was safe and easy to access.
I would not hesitate to recommend Sojourn Riddiford for your stay in Wellington.

Great service, and kind & wonderful staff
Pros:

I stayed with Sounourn Hotel for work in June, and the room was very clean and tidy. The service was absolutely incredible, and the front of house staff were so kind and accomodating, even packing our breakfast for us so we could catch our flight in time on a full tummy. Thank you very much. We will be back!

Good location, very clean & tidy
Pros:

Great friendly & helpful staff, unit very clean & tidy and well appointed with everything you could need right down to salt & pepper grinders. Good location, everything walking distance, very efficient off road car parking system. Well priced. Would definitely recommend, we will certainly use again. Would benefit from a couple of compact chairs in the unit as there is only the bed to sit on otherwise great facility
