The location.
Located at the lower end of Cuba Street (#40), Edisons offers a vibrantly engaging inner-city lifestyle.
Wellington's top cafes, restaurants and entertainment options are right on the doorstep, and for the nights you prefer to cook - you have Moore Wilsons, New World Chaffers Street and Commonsense organics nearby. The weekend harbourside market can easily become part of your routine and for those last-minute needs, multiple dairy/convenience stores are close.
You are spoilt for choice for exercise options: the open spaces of the waterfront just a short stroll away and there are so many yoga, pilates, gym, or other training options nearby. You’ll find yourself walking more too: it’s easy to keep your steps above 10K when everything is so handy. If you want to catch a bus further afield, Manners street with its main bus hub is literally just around the corner.
