We live in the Northland but our kids live in Wellington. We came down to visit them and celebrate my birthday. The Naumi was our first choice to stay at for the week. At the check in desk there are always sweets with little paper bags to take up to your room. Nice touch.
When we got to our room there was a bottle of wine in the fridge with a card from the Naumi wishing me a happy birthday. What a sweet surprise.
I found the entire experience wonderful. The hotel is very well located. Our room was on the 7th floor and was a corner room. It was very well appointed. Coffee maker, microwave, fridge and large closet. The bathroom was very nice. There is shampoo, body wash, lotion etc for those who don't like to travel with their own toiletries. I prefer to bring my own. But it's a nice touch.
One of the most important things was it was quiet. Wellington, as most cities are, can be very loud. Especially Cuba Street on a weekend, being a big university town it can be overwhelming. Since we live on a very quiet farm up North we aren't used to a lot of noise. So this was perfect for us.
The only negative experience was house keeping. After the room was cleaned the carpets were still a bit dirty. They didn't give us an extra roll of toilet paper even though I left the bag out for them to refill it. But it wasn't that bad, just not what I expected from a hotel of this quality.
All of the employees were very kind and professional. The bar was very nice with comfortable chairs and tables.
If you are headed to Wellington I highly recommend the Naumi Hotel.
