Pros:

Great location for visiting the Lower Hutt area, staff were lovely and the bed was comfy. There’s a laundry facility for guests to use which makes things so easy for longer stays. Chromecast in the TVs was great for lounging around and watching films in the evening.

Cons:

I got breakfast and probably shouldn’t have. It was both basic and really average quality/standards of preparation. Worth noting though that there was a whole gluten free cereal section on a different table which I’m sure is great for coeliac folks. There was only dairy milk out for the coffee and cereals but the staff were so lovely about giving me oat milk everyday.

Given the location, some may find it a little noisy on the weekends with obnoxious cars.

Great hotel, just avoid paying for the breakfast
Pros:

Really nice place have stayed a few times now, the people are excellent, rooms comfortable and well appointed. Riverview is pleasant on a good day. The off site gym at strength nation is far superior to any hotel gym, its clean well appointed and near by

Cons:

Carpark is pretty tight to get in and out of and quite limited if youre travelling with a vehicle it can be a little limiting.
Its a pretty noise area so that can be a bit rough, but its expected in the city so hard for them to avoid.
The biggest downfall is the breakfast is pretty terrible, there are plenty of nice cafes in Petone so visit one of them because youll be let down by the on-site restaurant (although dinner there is really nice, not sure why the quality is so vastly different between meals).
