What guests think

At InterContinental Wellington by IHG, travellers consistently praise the central, walkable location and professional, friendly staff, alongside comfortable, well equipped rooms; however, ongoing renovations have at times closed facilities and dining areas and introduced noise or check-in disruptions.

When available, the pool, gym and spa attract praise, though some found the pool small, cold or dated. Breakfast often rates well, but several guests encountered disorganization at peak times and uneven quality. Cleanliness is generally strong, yet some noted stained carpets, missed housekeeping, and occasional maintenance quirks. Overall, a polished city hotel where strengths outweigh the caveats for most stays.

Great sleep in a nice room. Breakfast area is under construction, so it is held in a large ballroom which is a bit sterile and cold first thing in the morning. The lobby is also under construction. But otherwise was fine.

The hotel pool was lovely. I was not notified about renovation work which meant the bar and restaurant were out of action. Dirty dishes outside my door, and a mini bar with nothing in it! The 20 dollar voucher was a fair gesture but i would have booked another hotel if i had of known about the work going on. I like to have a drink in the hotel bar, as a woman travelling on my own i feel more comfortable doing this. No mini bar either. Not very 5 star!

Rooms, foyer, bar, staff are what you would expect from a 5 star. So very happy there. Unfortunately they did not inform at time of booking the pool, sauna and gym was being refurbished. Only emailed after booking. They did have a back up gym and pool about 10min walk away.

Hi there, When arrived,I liked it and I extended my stay. Soon after, I realized that it was not a good idea! The receptionists did not communicate well about me staying longer. I was promised a nicer room for my extended time and I was given another one! The swimming pool was not working ! The mattress had too many stains!! Thanks Heleni Lewis

Comfy beds, quiet. Bathroom is tired and needs updating as does the pool area. Room was not as clean as i would've expected. Cups still had coffee marks in them, blood on wall in toilet and room needed vacuuming (hairclips under desk). Did get given a discount on breakfast because of this but disappointing that it wasn't up to standard

We have been visiting this hotel for some years now and up until this visit we would score 10 out of 10. This time there were a few things not up to the 5 star service. The breakfast staff were great however… - The King bed was sagging in the middle, very uncomfortable. - The carpet in room 613 was dirty and could do with a proper clean. - A black hair in our dessert at the hotel restaurant…..ewww, no apology. - No tea bag selection and no fresh water after the room was serviced. - Leaking overhead shower head with cold water when using the wall mounted shower head. Noisy staff in and out of a small service cupboard near our room at various times in the night. An unfriendly staff member at checkout in the morning. Small things we know but not up to the usual standard expected for a 5 star, top end hotel with top end pricing.

We had a premium king room with a water view. The restaurant on site was closed. We were really looking forward to eating there and wouldn’t have booked if we knew that ahead of time. The staff was amazing - check in, concierge, laundry pickup, towel drop off, etc. The bed was comfortable. The other furniture was…odd. It was like someone had dropped off furniture without checking to see if it fit in the room. There was one desk/counter after the kitchenette that we placed one suitcase on. At the end of the tv cabinet was another desk, and we placed the other suitcase there. This desk was in 2 feet in front of the corner window. There is nowhere else to put suitcases. Right next to that is an odd round table where they thoughtfully placed 2 bottles of water. To get at the curtain behind the desk, you have to move the table! Next to that is a loveseat placed three feet in front of the bayside window. It was all so strange. I shoved the loveseat against the window. My husband thinks it was so you could get at the long curtains. I think all they have to do is put shorter curtains. The bathroom shower has a rain head and a handheld. If you stand under the handheld, your butt is up against the metal hose & the rain head drips cold water on you. If you use the rain head instead, the pressure is too weak to penetrate your hair. Unless you’re bald, like my husband. The tile floor is slippery. The toilet is a wall push button which caved in our last day.

Hotel was lovely and we had a really great stay. It appears to have had a renovation recently (stayed Jan 2026) and the room was really well equipped, comfortable and clean. Staff in the main hotel were excellent. The service at breakfast in the GPO cafe was a bit manic and disorganised, and the layout feeling a bit cramped contributed to that feeling of chaos at peak breakfast time with customers and staff all trying to move around.

Convenient location to shops, restaurants and transportation. However, the property is undergoing a renovation (as of March 2025) and although I was told by the receptionist I shouldn’t hear any loud noise in my room), the sound of drilling, probably from the room right above was so loud and irritating that I had to leave my room. The night light in the toilet was so bright (there didn’t seem to be a way to switch it off), it shone through 3 layers of glass walls in the bathroom straight into the sleeping area. I had to stack two metal trash cans to cover it so I can get some sleep. At check-in, I was not told that water is provided but I would have to request for it. I had just stayed at Intercontinental Auckland where there is a filtered water station on every floor so I thought it would be the same at this location. I told the morning receptionist I’m checking out early and in the afternoon when I’m checking out, another reception had no idea of my plan. My Platinum Elite status got me nothing at this hotel, not even a “thank you for being a loyal customer”. Overall, not a good stay.

We always stay in the Intercon when visiting Wellington. Last time we were unhappy because there was no notification of extensive renovations which meant the restaurant was closed and the unwindowed room they offered as an alternative was less than satisfactory. This time we only had the opportunity to visit the club lounge where the service and drinks were fine, but the usual high standard food offering was no where to be seen And was very disappointing worth the premium paid!

Front desk mixed up and gave my corner room to the other person in our group and then when he wouldn't change, would not find me a comparable one even though I was willing to pay. They also did not have closed captioning on the tv for my deaf friend and the hotel pool (an important amenity) was closed. Not the best stay to say the least.
