WELLINGTON HOTEL HELL, THE SILVEROAKS ON THORNDON - UP FOR SALE

We are awaiting replies form both the owners, Silver Oaks Ltd and the online marketers Wotif to the dreadful experience we had staying at the Silver Oaks Hotel in Wellington. Both had said they will get back to us.
It was an appallingly grubby hotel and out sentiments were echoed by all but one of the reviewers on Tripadvisor.

And this site has stopped referring it.

We worry about this sort of establishments ability to tarnish our reputation leading up to the Rugby World Cup 2011.

Anyway it appears the whole chain is up for sale by Collliers. The sales blurb mentions the fact that some hotels are due for refurbishment. We have stayed at many hotels undergoing refurbishment but all were clean. The Silver Oaks was not. It was filthy.









Do not stay at this hotel until someone new has bought it and manages it to a standard that Kiwis expect.
