Boulcott Suites

Boulcott Suites

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent quality accommodation, with parking facility, located very centrally in Wellington's CBD. Amenities included kitchen hob, microwave and washing machine. The studio was great for our 2-Night stay. Guests should be aware, however, that no housekeeping is included for stays up to 7 Nights - so no clean towels without paying extra!"
