Naumi Hotel Wellington

Naumi Hotel Wellington

10/10 Excellent
"A smaller boutique motel that is a bit quirky. Bright and at times bizarre colour scheme, but really I couldn’t fault it. Absolute five-star shower, comfortable bed, good aircon, quiet and comfortable modern room. Really only negative I had was eating the restaurant and both the food and the service were both quite poor. But that aside, this is a superb hotel which I just couldn’t otherwise find fault with."
