Oaks Wellington Hotel has opened in the heart of Wellington’s entertainment precinct, Courtenay Place, marking the debut of the brand in New Zealand’s Capital.
Located within the city’s thriving CBD, Oaks Wellington Hotel holds prime position for business travellers wanting to immerse themselves in the city’s world-class creative, culinary and cultural offerings.
The former Ford vehicle assembly plant is one of Wellington’s most prominent buildings and the site has since undergone a multi-million dollar transformation into a sleek, 226-key, nine storey hotel, designed for the modern traveller.
Oaks Wellington Hotel’s 30 different room configurations are designed with a functional layout, each with complimentary wifi, Smart TVs with Sky channel access, modern bathroom amenities, tea and coffee making facilities and international power converters available at reception. Select room types boast sweeping views of Lambton Harbour, private balconies and fully equipped kitchens.
Paying homage to the history of the building, the original framework has been retained, while stylish finishes of marble, aged walnut, white stone and coated steel feature throughout. The chic and modern interiors include custom-made furniture with soft furnishings featuring the signature Oaks cool blue tone.
The on-site Oak & Vine restaurant offers sophisticated and contemporary Kiwi-inspired cuisine with a Mediterranean influence from the mind of executive chef, Kit Foe. Oak & Vine serves guests a daily buffet breakfast bar and an a la carte lunch and dinner menu. Designed for sharing, the menu features delicate flatbreads served with thyme and beetroot hummus, locally-sourced Te Kouma Bay Pacific oysters, twelve-hour slow cooked lamb shoulder served with green beans and chat potatoes, and the signature Oak & Vine charcuterie board complete with artesian meat and Pâté.
Designed to suit the modern traveller, business travellers will also have access to the fully equipped fitness and wellness centre, car park and transfer services and babysitting services. With corporate guests in mind, the hotel offers executive meeting rooms and function spaces, as well as a business hub located in the foyer with high-speed internet.
