Victoria Court Motor Lodge

Location, especially with parking, is fantastic - just a 50m walk down a back exit to Cuba St! The hosts were great and really helpful, e.g. providing some extra accessibility gear (a seat and non-slip bath mat) to make the bathroom more usable for us; letting us leave the car parked there after we'd checked out so that we could do some shopping nearby on foot and wheelchair; contacting us quickly when they found we'd left something in the room. Accessibility is pretty good with lift access to all floors. Recommended. Really handy for our family holiday exploring Wellie!

The positives are the location - very central and the parking on site. Good price point also. |The not so goods - very tired rooms in need of maintenance +++. This includes the fixtures and fittings, windows, bathroom, furniture, appliances, and furnishings. |and the noise factor ... possibly to be expected given location ...but expect to be kept awake if you're a light sleeper.

The best is the free parking close to the city centre. The room was OK for the price in a city, a bit dated. Bed comfortable. Above the door is a window without curtain, so light shines in all the time. It was relatively quiet except the wind howling round the building. The worst were the kitchen towels. They smelled awful. As I was washing, I washed them as well. There was a huge TV that I did not use. I had a spa bath which I did not use. The shower head should be cleaned. As I had the windows open all the time, dirt flew in, otherwise the room was quite clean but not in the laundry or the staircase. Room service just empties the garbage bin.

Very basic room, comfortable bed, and great location. Right across from Budget rental cars. Walk to Cuba St and shops. Short drive to Te Papa Museum, Mount Victoria or Weta Workshop. Staff was great. They helped me forward a lost article of clothing I've been chasing since the South Island! We had a toaster, microwave, cooktop, coffee plunger, tea, coffee, and milk. Shower was good. No complaints!

They upgraded me (travelling alone) to an apartment with a separate bedroom. The rooms are nice and big and are well equiped. I chose this Motel because of the free parking and it is very close and convenient to walk to the city. |It was quiet during my 3 days stay except the wind howling round the building. There was always a smell of cooking. The room was clean but the laundry room and the surroundings and stair cases were not. There are good curtains but above the door there is a small window and the light shines in all the time.

AVOID - Dirty - AVOID Appalling level of cleanliness, wiping up water after shower with the foot towel resulted in two dirty brown footprints. Closer inspection revealed that what I thought was a colored pattern on the floor was filth. Then looked around closely and discovered the pattern on one bedroom wall was actually fine spider webs. Showed foot towel to reception on leaving and got "oh sorry". As others have said parking and closeness to downtown is great.

We're part way through our 6night booking and we're here because of its central city location. My gripe is that we pay for our accommodation and yesterday afternoon we put up with loud music about 2 hours, and this afternoon the same thing is happening, we've had a morning walk and coffee etc now we're back in our room for a relaxing afternoon! But the noise is so loud!

Had a last minute trip to Wellington and caught a room here for $110. The room was spacious, very clean, and had every basic thing you would need including elements and pots for cooking. It could be considered tired in some areas, but it had fresh carpet and looked totally fine in general. Effortless check-in and out. The location is great because you can walk to anywhere in the Welly CBD, and a big plus was free on-site parking which greatly increased the value of this place. Overall very impressed, and my wife and I will return here again.
