“The Green Dragon in Wellington strikes me as a refreshingly unpretentious choice, where a comfortable bed and a reliably good breakfast seem to be the priorities. I appreciate that it's centrally located and the staff are consistently mentioned as friendly and helpful, suggesting a personal touch that can make a stay truly enjoyable. For those prioritizing a clean, well-maintained base with practical amenities, it's a solid option.”
