Location and What's Hot?

Both Victoria University of Wellington and the University of Otago (Wellington Campus) are well connected from the property. It is important to note that the Wellington campus of the University of Otago is primarily for Health Sciences and is not a common undergraduate destination. The surrounding neighbourhood offers an excellent mix of cafés, restaurants, shops, and waterfront attractions. Whether you’re grabbing lunch between lectures or spending your weekend exploring the city, there’s always something close by.

New World Metro Willis Street, Cable Car Lane Woolworths, and Moore Wilson's Fresh are only a few steps away for groceries. Healthcare services are also conveniently located nearby, with Chemist Warehouse, Life Pharmacy, and Wellington Regional Hospital all within easy reach. When you are in the neighborhood, don't hesitate to visit these places just in case you need something.

The suburb around Unilodge Stafford House will never fail to make your mouth water. Start the morning with a cup of coffee at People's Coffee, The Hangar, or Starbucks. For lunch or dinner, visit Little Penang, Origami, and Dragonfly. Then it's only a short walk to one of the great hubs of the city, like Cuba Street, Lambton Quay, or Courtenay Place, for your night out. From shopping and bars to eateries, pubs, and live music, you can get it all. It all fits your budget and preferences in these parts!

During your study break time, why not get to know the Wellington Waterfront better, relax at the Botanic Garden, or have a great time from the summit of Mount Victoria? People who appreciate arts and culture might enjoy a visit to Te Papa Tongarewa; history buffs, however, can spend time at the Museum of Wellington City & Sea. Being so near to Unilodge Stafford House means that student housing Wellington is very likely going to stay at the top of students' choices list.
