Rydges Wellington Airport
Didn't have breakfast, so no comment. The major restaurant was closed, but the Peltonen had a simple menu and their food was excellent. Well done to who ever is in charge of Food & Beverage there

Great location. Very nice staff. Clean rooms. Only drawback was lack of space to put clothing and suitcases for a lengthy stay.
