Filthy rooms. Carpets are dirty and stained. Rooms have body odour stench. Toilets were blood stained and black under the rim with grime. Shower wall had hair stuck to it and hair in the drain. Water was not draining in the shower resulting in it flooding over the shower box. Duty manager came to inspect this and blamed me for “using too much soap”, and did not offer anything to remedy the situation in the moment. When upgrades were offered, staff made backhanded comments to me about “causing a scene just to score an upgrade” which was rude and inappropriate. Staff were on their phones in reception taking personal calls on speaker, with inappropriate conversations happening in front of guests. Staff wreaked of sweat that permeated the entire lobby. Disgusting and unacceptable experience overall, will never be back here.

The washer-dryer is one equipment. Does not fully dry if you big and/orheavy items like jeans and sweater. It works well for small and light clothing.

Pros
Location, price, check in staff, cleanliness, nice and new, bed was so so comfy, no outside noise, black out curtains. The 1 bed had a washer and dryer in the bathroom and the water pressure in the shower was fantastic.

Cons
No hand/body soap in bathroom or shower, both were just empty.
If you are sensitive to light, bring an eye mask. The smoke alarm light flashes 24/7 and the clock light was so bright but at least that can be unplugged.
Really strong cooking smells on the 2nd floor, it was unpleasant.
The vending machines weren't working with paywave, no cash, so I attempted to use the QR code and it took me to a scam website...
The lounge was really bizarre, like there's heaps of room but just two small armchairs and a coffee table, like you can't watch tv and have a cuddle with your partner :'( they weren't that comfy either, neither were the dining chairs. The space needs a 2 seater couch or something especially for long stays or couples.

This is the worst accommodation. We arrived to check in and the treatment from the person at the reception was shocking. I am not why he is in a hospitality industry. He was not support and not even willing to give and proper guidance ad we were new to Wellington. Didn’t even contact the managers. Expedia tried calling and emailing and he didnt respond. Me and my family had to leave and drive back to Auckland. Shocking service….. Hoping to get my money back

Large space. Not to far from amenities. It’s modern, handy, en-suite, convenient and priced about right. So on that basis I’d stay again. The rest of this information is to assist readers
Straight walk to Te Papa museum and waterfront about 3/4 mile away. Our room didn’t have a hair dryer and clearly a piece of furniture had been removed, leaving a huge void in the room. ‘Bedside’ lights were ceiling mounted and bright white.

Decent location and a short walk to most places. The hotel takes up 3 of the 6 floors and the remaining 3 floors are condos. There is someone at the front desk from 8AM - 7PM. If you're looking for hotel amenities, this isn't the place for you.

The living room was pretty sparse with 2 chairs even though the room could definitely fit a couch and a coffee table. Definitely some interesting design choices, but it was plenty of room for us and it was very clean and comfortable. We never heard any of our neighbors or the road noise, so definitely a plus!

Overall this hotel had what we look for - clean modern space with kitchen and good bed and good shower with laundry a bonus. Parking is awful but the few spots they have a great. But it’s really sad they won’t let you pre pay and reserve in advance. The first come first served method is archaic and maddening. I’ll happily pay more and honestly the parking lift is cool and easy to learn and nice that it keeps your car locked away up high because car break ins happen in this city. Staff so nice - special shout out to Hunter who is very patient and helpful in a hard job.

The room was large but slightly barren/spartan (lots of space, very limited furniture). While only being there for a couple of nights, we stayed in two rooms. They were almost identical, but with differences in amenities provided (particularly glasses) and low-level damage.
We were in Wellington for a weekend break - the first night the hotel alarms went off at 1120pm, and we got to return to a new room and bed about 230am. This seriously spoil our time.
The alarm was, apparently caused by a gas leak from hotel refrigeration systems (i.e., the hotels problem). I was also very concerned at the very poor communication with the guests outside at night in the cold for multiple hours. Very little communication, almost none. If that is the safety and care for customers shown by the Ramanda chain, well - I can't recommend the safety standards, so I don't think I will return (it is my second visit).
The staff I met outside the time of the alarm were nice, and also kind. We had a late checkout I appreciated too. And we were impressed by how quiet the room was.

A very comfortable and well provided room, it had everything you could need while travelling. I interacted with several of the front desk staff and they were most friendly, I enjoyed talking with them as they helped me with any questions.
Do note, the front desk closes around 7PM and shifts to a phone after then. Also, hotel parking is pretty limited. Street parking after 8PM was free and very easy though so I had no problems at all. Just something to be aware of, which the front desk again was most helpful with. No complaints, next time I'm in Wellington I'll definitely stay here!

Very poor for a Ramada. No 24 hour front desk. If you are not local and do not have cell service and arrive late it's very difficult to gain access. Dirty, run down, torn curtains, broken shower, no shampoo, unwelcoming front desk staff. Bombarded with emails and texts (recieved after I got home) to provide your personal details online. This is a privacy issue. You have no ideas who has access to you personall information.

Better seating in the room - after a long day of traveling there was literally no where comfortable to relax. Small things like this would make it feel more like an apartment room rather than the simple hotel room with a kitchenette that we got. Also our room didn’t once get seen by house keeping which was really disappointing - the booking said daily house keeping but when we arrived we were told it’s not every day.

Hotel was good, was just disappointed with parking situation. I was told parking was on a first in-first served basis so arrived right on 3pm check-in time, only to be told no parks available. They could not give me advice on any alternative parking options, just told me to park on the street. After driving 5 hours and not knowing Wellington this was quite stressful. I went and checked several times and there were parks available. Parking should be able to be booked in advance to alleviate this stress.

The staff at the Ramada are some of the most easy-going, helpful, and considerate people I have ever met in hospitality their names were (Tinō and hunter). When asked for advice or suggestions on where to eat or what to do while in Wellington they were more than happy to give great recommendations to places we never would’ve checked out otherwise but ended up loving. They always went out of their way to greet us, ask us about what we were up to and if we needed anything.
There isn’t a doubt my partner and I will be back there when staying in Wellington. We are very appreciative for the time spent making our stay free flowing and comfortable.

An average hotel. The room rate was fair for what it provided. I would stay here again.

No food except vending machines. Gym was weak with one treadmill and some free weight dumbells.

No daily cleaning, only when requested. The staff was super good about extra clean towels and coffee.

It was about 15 minutes walk to the harbor and market areas. It was a 5 minutes walk to the main restaurant street.

Staff was nice when there. No staff from 7pm to 7am. Check out is an early 10am. When I asked about a later 12 noon, they wanted to charge me.
