Great location, we were 2 minutes walk from Cuba St. Also, the room facilities were very new and clean (the shower was amazing). There is a good parking lot nearby - Taranaki Street Parking, which wasn't too expensive.

The lady on reception was so helpful. I think her name was Che. She arranged a taxi for the following morning and managed to pack a few goodies for breakfast as we were leaving at 07.45hrs. We were a little stressed on arrival and tired from our long journey. So thanks so very much for everything you did for us.

    Really good museum.

    Really good museum. Free to those from NZ or connected to it . We had to pay as a foreign visitor on vacation. However we could have just walked into the museum without paying which was a little annoying after . It wasn’t cheap .

    One of the great museums of the world - no stuffy "keep quiet" notices, lots to see & touch. Children of all ages just love it. Visit the coffee bar for a good flat-white and a super cake.

    Absolutely amazing exhibits such as Gallipoli and the nature exhibit. My 7 year old Son absolutely loved it. But the only sad note was the propaganda 2 versions of the treaty Climate emergency etc.. There was twice as much info on Maori history compared to colonial or even on how far we've come as a nation taking the country from Bush and swamp and long drop Toilets to the amazing place we all share now.

    This is a must see. We always enjoyed our time here. They have lockers for rent on the first floor if you have bags. It's always a treat to sit in the cafe and have tea and cake after walking around the exhibits. A favorite NZ museum.

    Te Papa Museum is an amazing place.

    Te Papa Museum is an amazing place. The history and preservation of the past are so well done. The Gallipoli museum display is unique and confronting with larger-than-life figures done in such a way that they look life-like. It does exemplify the stupidity of war! Preservation of Maori art and culture is also clearly and respectfully displayed and is well worth seeing. This museum was the real attraction of coming to Wellington for us and it surpassed our expectations.

    If you only have the day, then Te Papa is where to spend it. The WW1 exhibit is breathtaking, and they have used the time it was closed to improve a lot of the areas. Even if you've been here many times, it is always worth a see.
