Wellington’s stunning Museum Art Hotel is one of Lost At E Minor’s favourite hotels – and not just for the luxury, comfort and setting. It comes with an underlying vibe of cheeky fun. Take this example: the beautiful motorbikes on display in the lobby/gallery are regularly taken out for a quick spin by owner, Chris Parkin.

The nine-storey hotel, with a swanky restaurant known as Hippopotamus, a day-spa, and lap-pool, is his vision. As an avid collector of contemporary and local art, it comes off with aplomb, and is rated as one of the top 10 art hotels in the world. When A-Listers come to town – as they do, to shoot movies in ‘Wellywood’, this is where they stay. It’s also the best place in Wellington to base yourself to check out the Middle of Middle Earth, and capture what makes the Lord of The Rings and The Hobbit so special.
