Bolton Hotel

A sleek and contemporary addition to Wellington’s accommodation scene, The Bolton – which opened its doors in February 2005 – takes its name from one of the first ‘settler ships’ to arrive in Wellington in 1840.

We recommend the fresh and stylish one and two bedroom suites which all offer their own living and dining areas, as well as full kitchen and laundry facilities – and each either overlooks downtown Wellington or nearby parkland.

The Bolton offers the convenience and added space of staying in an apartment with the additional facilities of a hotel. Key features include an indoor heated lap pool and a fully equipped gymnasium. The elegant ‘Bisque on Bolton’ (whose award-winning chef previously hailed from the world famous Huka Lodge) serves innovative New Zealand cuisine – and the relaxed Café Brioche is known for its great coffee, gourmet sandwiches and irresistible cakes!

The hotel is also centrally located close to Parliament, and just a short walk from Lambton Quay – Wellington’s shopping district. A ‘must’ in Wellington is a visit to ‘Te Papa’ – the country’s national museum which tells the fascinating stories of New Zealand and her people in a unique and innovative way, whilst for food lovers, a personally guided culinary tour of the capital with local specialist 'Zest Food Tours' should not be missed. We also recommend visiting the vineyards of nearby Greytown and Martinborough – or simply take time to stroll along Wellington’s harbourfront (stopping at Kaffee Eis on Oriental Parade for the best ice cream in town!).
