Christopher E. Business - 8/9/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

From the moment you rock up the team do not feel like they want to be there. Having a fight on who wanted or didn't want to serve me followed by a room with no heating and a resp'yeah we know'. The in-house Grimm service said to dial 4 but no phones to dial so had to make an external call to get internal food ordering. Could not deliver to the room as had to collect from the bar however when went down to collect from the bar two of the staff oil leaning against the bar

Dear Christopher, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback following your recent stay with us. I am very sorry to hear that your experience at ibis Wellington fell so far short of the standard we aim to provide, particularly as an ALL Platinum member. Your comments are all concerning. There is no excuse for you feeling that our team did not want to assist you, particularly after travelling for business. Our guests should always receive a warm and professional welcome, regardless of the time of day or how close a team member may be to the end of their shift. I am also disappointed to hear that you had to actively look for assistance during breakfast and that something as simple as ordering coffee felt like an imposition. I have also taken note of your comments regarding the heating and the lack of a telephone in the room. While we are aware of some limitations with our current in-room facilities, we should have provided you with clear information and, more importantly, offered an appropriate solution rather than simply acknowledging the issue. Your feedback has been shared with our management team so that we can address these service behaviours directly with the relevant departments and review the issues you experienced with our room facilities and in-house dining process. We will also be reinforcing our expectations around guest engagement and service throughout the team. I am particularly sorry that your stay left you feeling that you would not recommend us to others. This is certainly not the experience we want for our guests, and we appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide you with the warm, attentive and comfortable experience you should have received on this occasion. Kind regards, Alice Operations manager ibis Wellington

Kia Ora Cassidy, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear you had such a great stay and that our Front Office team, especially our morning/day receptionist, made such a positive difference to your experience.

We hope to welcome you back to ibis Wellington again soon! Nga mihi, Jordine IBIS Team Leader
