Wellington is the capital of New Zealand and it’s about an hour’s plane ride from Auckland. There are many iconic places in Wellington and we recommend a trip to the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa if you’re visiting. Also known as Te Papa, the national museum is literally a catch-all of treasures for the history-loving traveller. When the weather is nice enough, head outdoors and swing by Wellington Cable Car. The funicular railway is a well-known symbol of Wellington and not to be missed. Before you start exploring other places, let us help you find a place to stay. Read on for the best hotels with pool in Wellington, New Zealand.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and access to pool. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on March 07, 2024.
