Liked: Cleanliness
Adequate. But nothing special. A bit overpriced for what you get if you ask me. The doors of the other rooms were SO LOUD I thought someone was breaking in our room 6 times a night. The room was very clean, but very basic. Felt like a nice-ish hostel but kind of a sad hotel. For a property calling itself a European style boutique hotel I was expecting proper coffee in the rooms, not instant. Nothing horrible nothing great. Would stay again if everything else was booked out.

We had booked what we thought was a room with a bathroom, purposely upgrading from the 'shared bathroom' cheap option, but when we arrived we realised the bathroom was across the public hallway. Had we not already paid, we would have left at that time. We felt the WOTIF listing was not clear on the bathroom arrangement, and misleading. Disappointingly, there was no milk provided, and the shower could have been cleaner.

This is our second stay at this hotel. First time had a window that wouldn't close so it was very cold but its awesome location and easy parking made me come back a second time. Different room and another window that didnt close!! Luckily only Autumn so still not too cold but wouldn't want to be in that room in winter. The other thing to note is that when you book a room with a private bathroom its actually across the corridor! They say its private as its yours only but private to me means not having to walk across a public corridor and take 2 keys with me! Also housekeeping standards could definitely be improved. Don't think I will bother with a third visit!

Great hotel. Very spacious beautiful open planned kitchen dining and lounge room and plenty space and storage for 3 bedrooms. Easy contactless check in/out. Quiet, clean, big windows and warm. Two carparks are there but also a public carpark option is cross the road with early bird discount for $13.50 full day parking 6am-7pm. Easy walking distance to anywhere in city. Bring washing powder to use washing machine. Highly recommend.

We booked the family room as we were travelling with our teenage son and wanted to give him some privacy, but we had to go through his room to get to the bathroom which was very unpleasant during the night. Also the rooms are stuffy, small and very packed. No staff onsite and just a lockbox to get in, breakfast in the fridge … all very average. Feels more like a backpackers than a hotel. Would not go there again.

Wonderful experience with U Boutique in Wellington
We were on a one-night stay in Wellington and picked the U Boutique for its convenience and price for our group of 5 adults. We were able to store our bags before check-in so we could explore the city luggage free. We arrived back at the hotel later than expected and found that the staff had already moved our bags to the room for us! We did have an issue with the key to the door but they had a backup key available immediately and stopped by within minutes to give us a replacement key. The room was clean and comfortable with plenty of room for 5 adults with a private bath. They had some light refreshments in the room which was really nice with our busy schedule of sightseeing Wellington in just one day. We checked out on time and was also able to store our bags for bags for the remainder of the morning while we had brunch with relatives. With my travels all over the world, this was the most accommodating hotel I have ever stayed in. When I return to Wellington, I will surely make U Boutique my first choice.
