Location
The 3-star Aura Hotel Wellington is situated steps from the central district of Wellington, nearly 15 minutes' walk from The Great War Exhibition. This Wellington hotel features 62 rooms and such amenities as baggage storage.
The hotel is located in the centre of Wellington around 500 metres from the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa and 3.2 km from Wellington Zoo. The Aura is merely a 5-minute stroll from Manners Street at Cuba Street B bus stop and right near City Contemporary Art Gallery Wellington. Guests will also appreciate the vicinity to Jack Ilott Green, located 400 metres away. Take benefit from the proximity to the Lady Norwood Rose Garden, which is about a 25-minute walk away. For those travelling from afar, Wellington airport is 10 minutes' drive away.
The rooms feature coffee/tea making equipment, as well as a flat-screen TV with satellite channels for your convenience.
The Aura Wellington is just around the corner from Little Peckish Cafe serving European dishes.
Review by hotel critic
As an environmental scientist and marine conservation enthusiast, my recent stay at Aura Hotel in Wellington left me underwhelmed. Despite its convenient location at 65 Cuba Street, within walking distance of key attractions and the vibrant cultural hub, the misleading room description was a letdown. the flat-screen TV and clean towels were pleasant, but the overall experience fell short of expectations. Stepping into the reception area was promising, greeted by multilingual staff and efficient laundry facilities. However, the reality of the room, lacking in basic amenities and charm, did not reflect the online portrayal. Even though the shared kitchen and living area were well-maintained, the lack of attention to detail in the private bathroom was evident. In conclusion, Aura Hotel's potential for a comfortable stay is overshadowed by the discrepancy between marketing hype and on-ground reality. For future guests, I recommend thorough scrutiny of the room before finalizing payment to avoid dissatisfaction. As someone who values responsible travel choices, I hope that Aura Hotel can enhance its commitment to sustainability and transparency for a more fulfilling guest experience.
