If you can afford it, I would strongly recommend staying at Jennie and Shaun's fantastic place. The views are absolutely spectacular. The house is extremely well appointed with all the amenities you could need. The location is great (a pleasant walk down into town and a healthy hike back up). And the upstairs bedroom has one of the comfiest beds I've slept in - so comfy that we've ordered the same matress! An unforgettable experience and a brilliant introduction to Wellington life. Highly recommended.
