Score some of the best Wellington hotel prices by organising your plans early. Hotels sometimes offer special rates or early booking discounts to help fill rooms in advance.
However, you could still catch a last-minute offer. Although prices generally rise closer to your stay, some places cut rates a day or two before to avoid rooms sitting empty, especially when it's quiet.
