Excellent relaxing stay
A very relaxed and comfortable stay. The Bolton offered us quiet and excellent accommodation
The suite was very lovely. The kitchen was well set up and had everything required. I was amazed to see a washing machine and dryer although we did not use this.
Room service was quick; efficient and a very good range of food offered.
The leisure centre had a pool and spa that we thoroughly enjoyed.
A perfect hotel for a relaxing holiday in Wellington.

We stay at the Bolton multiple times a year and always have a fantastic stay. The rooms and food are great, but it’s the staff and the way they always make our family feel at home that keeps us coming back.
