What guests think

At Quest Petone, guests praise the central Petone location near Jackson Street and transport and the friendly, helpful staff, while recurring drawbacks include limited paid parking, occasional noise from neighbours or wind, and sometimes confusing after hours check in.

Rooms are often spacious and comfortable with useful kitchens, and several include in room laundry; a few note dated elements, small balconies, or internal bedrooms without outside windows. Cleanliness is generally strong, though some reviews mention ants or lapses in maintenance and fridge stocking. Overall, expect a convenient, self contained base in Petone if you plan parking ahead and are mindful of potential noise.

Organization of late 11pm check-in was excellent, spoilt by unexpectedly finding out there was a $15 charge for off street parking which is not itemised on website. Price stated for breakfast but not parking. Disappointing to say the least

Parking - The parking spots are tight but secure. Parking is $15 a day, but was worgh it in Petone. The room was somewhat dated. The kitchen was a very small kitchenette, but it had a full size refrigerator.

I was impressed that our one room unit had a microwave , 2 element cooking hob,a coffee machine as well as the standard Jettle and toaster. The cooking utensil drawer had all you would need when cooking with the supplied saucepan or frying pan. The room and bathroom were beautifully cleaned and the housekeepers I spoke to were very pleasant . Danika was most welcoming upon arrrival making me feel immediately comfortable. I would highly recommend the Quest hotel in Petone. Thank you.

Excellent room with views over Petone, the harbour, across to Wellington City. Staff help effectively, good security system. Handy to Petone shopping area. There is limited hotel parking, which affected me, but there was parking space offsite on the street.

Great location just off Jackson St - plenty of shopping, dining, supermarket walking distance, can easily catch the train into the city. Be aware that the carpark is very small and you must book well in advance. If you don’t manage to book a space, there is free parking in the surrounding streets, but there’s no easy place to load and unload the car near the hotel (so, a warning if you’re mobility impaired, have lots of bags, or children). We followed someone into the gated carpark to unload, so you may be able to request the front desk staff to do the same and then relocate your car. Room facilities were good.

The apartment was shabby. The bathroom hand-basin was chipped and looked to be dirty. The bathroom vanity cupoard was also chipped. The towel rail wasn't fastened to the wall and so it fell on the floor when the towel was used. The shower frame and glass was hanging off leaving a gap large enough to put your hand through. The carpet by the bed looked like it hadn't been swept in years. For 2 guests staying 2 nights the complimentary tea and coffee, etc, was only enough to make one cup each.
