We had a great stay at this B&B and enjoyed meeting John, the owner. The room was exceptionally clean and quiet. The property looked a bit run down from the outside, but the inside is great so don't be put off. We didn't have a car but it was easy to walk to nearby restaurants and down to the ocean. We also walked to Te Papa museum which was amazing. The location is very convenient. There are tons of restaurants within an easy 10 min walk. The room was comfortable and had both a fan & space heater along with tea/coffee and kettle. There was soap provided but no shampoo so you would need to have your own. Would recommend the property.

Not there long enough to take in condition inside/o/side property. Did not use free "continental br/fast". Thought toilet outside cistern mould needs removal, bathroom needs either an openable window i.e. the tiny window above main window could be openable (release of steam from shower/basin) or a fan. When I tried to clean it off, coating on cistern seemed to be some kind of plaster/rough paint. A minor point but others might not like seeing it.

Don't judge a book by it's cover
From the outside you may not be impressed, but once inside it's like visiting your quirky old aunt. The rooms are spacious, clean, comfortable and quiet but the overall decor is interesting. The host John is friendly and helpful and a good continental breakfast is included. The location is fantastic, walking distance to all major Wellington attractions. No problems with on street parking, just make sure you get a permit from John to display.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Richmond Guest House B&B and interacting with the owner, John. Lovely Art Deco crown molding and porcelain collectibles adorned common spaces. Breakfast offered so many choices of cereal and toppings for the toast! Location is good for walking to the city center which was great because I didn't enjoy driving in Wellington due to the narrow streets. The room had all the appliances needed for our afternoon coffee/tea and a modern private bathroom. Would recommend!

Good location
The location was ideal, not far from restaurants and centre. The breakfast was very good and the host was very amusing. We were able to park outside the accommodation and the host was looking out for us to hand over a parking permit. Please note that when parking in N Zealand you have to park the way of the traffic or you can be fined. There was a traffic warden walking down the street. The accommodation was good, clean and we had everything we needed.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We stayed 4 nights in Wellington and the stay at the Richmond was worth it. The room was clean and big enough for a family so for the price it was good value. It included a breakfast hosted by John the owner whose brusqueness may offend some of a more delicate nature but being English, we just found it amusing. The building is Victorian as is most of the properties in the area, but the dining room was like stepping back to the 50's/60's with a period radiogram playing during breakfast whilst eating at old fashioned tables etc. It was interesting. The hotel is situated relatively close to most places and during our stay we found short cuts to get to the centre and to also avoid some of the hills.
