Newlands Court Motel, hotel in Wellington

Refurbished in 2016, Newlands Court Motel is located in Newlands, within 15 minutes’ drive from the center of Wellington. Guests of this motel can enjoy gardens and free on-site parking.

I asked specifically when I called he motel for a 2room suite because there were 3 single adults and 3 children, we were given motel room with the queen bed in the dining area and two fold down couches that faced each other in a space that coudn't accommadate two fold down couches. Three single beds int he room so close together there was no room for luggage. I book a spa bath suite, no spa bath. I definitely do not recommend this motel and this is the second time I have used booking.com and the last. If you pay that much money you expect what you ask for. Shocking.

    We visited the area last January during summer and found it to be in the central city. It's convenient as everything, especially restaurants, is nearby. The bathroom is reasonably equipped for the price paid, and a hairdryer is available. Friendly receptionist. There is free parking inside the motel.

    The unit was spacious and clean. It had everything we needed for our 2 night stay. It was great to find a motel with free parking outside our unit. The car was parked up for the weekend as the location is super central to everything. Definitely will stay again

    Value for money. I booked here because the city hotels were excessively expensive during the Wearable Arts. This motel was very well priced and I was surprised with how comfortable, spacious and modern the rooms were. Very good value and all with free parking.

    I stay here often because it is always clean, and it is in a great location - 1 block to cuba street, close to where I work, and handy to everywhere. There is free parking on site, which is a real bonus for a central city motel.
