New Plymouth – Wellington, Naumi Hotel Day 3
Tuesday 25th March 2025
Day 3 New Plymouth – Wellington
Due to our relaxed start we found our day was going to be a travel day, so we drove on arriving in Wellington just after mid-afternoon. I had booked the next 3 nights at the Naumi Hotel in Cuba Street. Certainly, the funky end of town and so was our hotel. In a previous life it had been the People’s Palace (Salvation Army) and then the Trekkers Hotel (backpackers) and now it is a much sort after for its outlandish furnishings and popular bar and dining facilities. We were on the blue floor with black and white chequered carpet. Our room was decorated in bright orange. All of the fixtures and fittings are the latest and greatest. Even the ceiling was wall papered!
We strolled Cuba Street, making our way to the Museum Hotel (my favourite Wellington hotel, but alas no vacancies this time around) for a drink before wandering back to an Italian place in Cuba Street called Ombra. The food was share plates, with the food arriving at our table in no particular order. All was delicious before finishing off with an affogato.
