    Request for no turn down service did not work.

    Great vibe and decor. It seemed many non residents used the bar which is a great sign.

    Super cool & stylish hotel, perfect location, classy bar and great staff.

    This is a very cool spot in the heart of the town. It's very dark inside with artistic photographs and an industrial feel with exposed walls and brick work, we loved it! The room was huge and had not one, but two bathrooms along with lots of storage and a lot of complimentary drinks (rare for a hotel). Despite it's super central location, it was also very quiet at night with little traffic on the road outside, and we were literally a 2-minute walk from the heart of the shopping district. One huge plus also is the brilliant Puffin bar on the ground floor, which is an incredibly cool cocktail bar with brilliant staff and a massive range of drinks which you can enjoy in booths or lounging at the bar. The hotel also provides free (yes, free) coffee and croissants every morning for guests in its beautiful foyer area. The staff were extremely friendly and a joy to deal with, thank you. This is definitely a return-to when we visit the city again!

    The Intrepid Hotel has a real feeling of luxury and is full of very special details, like sparkling water being available on tap on each floor, and the complimentarycrossants and coffee available in the lobby each morning, but isn't the standard hotel version of luxe, it's a very bespoke style with a curatorial eye for design.

    It was THE BEST hotel I've stayed in in Wellington - and I've stayed at them all. It's kooky so you need to like brick backgrounds, nooks and crannies. It's above the best bar in Wellington, Puffin but I didn't have to worry about noise. It's close to everything and literally a 40sec walk from Cuba street. The best thing though was how cool they staff were. Thank heaps - will DEF be back.

    the lighting in the rooms was too dim and teh lack of a table to place a laptop or work in a seat beside the bed was a problem and as it was for work i couldn't work properly. suggest you find a small table and chair for anyone who needs to work on a laptop. i had to sit on the bed and it was uncomfortable

    great location and people and loved the quirky nature of the building.

    Nothing really - in the first night it was a bit chilly, but then we found the heater :)

    The location in the city. Despite the central location it was quiet in the nights. The eye for the detail, complementary snacks and drinks, welcoming staff, coffee and croissant in the morning.

    Tiny nightstands with barely room to charge your phone and lower than the bed. High mirror in the bathroom if you are under 5'4" you may only see from your nose up.

    Loved the area - easy to walk to everything. Fun wine bar in back of lobby. Delicious croissants and coffee in the morning. Guest laundry available. Reasonable parking garage basically next door. Easy check in/out.
