10/10 Excellent
"The Gilmore Hotel is absolutely fabulous! It’s in a great location in Wellington, with easy walking access to one of the best shopping streets along with some of the historic district areas. Staff is wonderful and the facilities have been updated and are very modern. Would highly recommend!"
