Meeting Rooms at Aotea Lodge

Aotea Lodge is a purpose built motel/conference centre with four star accommodation and restaurant catering. Our three well equipped conference rooms are regularly used for group workshop training by government and local body agencies, educational institutions, and business and social agencies.

 



Location is a factor in the choice of Aotea Lodge as a conference venue. The Lodge is a city venue in a rural setting surrounded by the open fields of the Police College, the historic Gear Homestead and Aotea College overlooking Porirua Harbour and Aotea Lagoon. And yet it is only 200m from SH1, 3 minutes from Porirua city centre and 15 minutes from the centre of Wellington. Our marketing slogan is “away from the office but close to Town”. Aotea Lodge is built on expansive grounds with a variety of opportunities for outdoor and indoor group workshop activity including the gardens, the café surrounds and the reception areas adjacent to the indoor pool.





Other features include:



- 35 quality accommodation units including units sleep 2’s and 3’s

- A licensed a-la-carte bar and restaurant and separate on site café

- Conference rooms with large windows for natural lighting and expansive water or

  countryside views

- Air conditioning in the larger conference rooms

- A range of audio visual equipment including data projection

- A heated indoor pool and spa

- Ample on-site parking for cars and buses

- A pick up service from wellington airport by arrangement  





In addition Aotea Lodge is surrounded by roads and walking tracks for physically minded. Of considerable interest to conference organisers could be the recent opening of the Adrenaline Forest Park located across the road from Aotea Lodge on the grounds of Gear Homestead. The challenges posed by the range of high wires between the parks pine trees attracts participants young and old and is a highly suitable venue for personal development and leadership training programmes.
