Capital Lodge Motor Inn
When I booked through Expedia it included breakfast, when I went for my breakfast I was told it wasn't included. Nothing wrong with the property but I won't deal with Expedia again

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
