Artisan at Bolton Hotel

Artisan is the restaurant and bar of the Bolton Hotel, on Level 1 at 12 Bolton Street in central Wellington, a short walk from Parliament and the Beehive. It offers fine dining within a five-star hotel setting in the heart of the CBD.

The kitchen, led by chef Amey Rane, focuses on seasonal New Zealand cuisine, weaving in Indian and Mediterranean influences to create balanced, contemporary dishes built on fresh local produce, with sustainability a stated priority. The offer spans lunch, a grazing menu and an evening bistro menu, along with breakfast and the Bolton Hotel's well-known high teas. Pork belly and pressed lamb are among the dishes singled out by reviewers, who also note strong value for a five-star venue. It holds a Google rating of around 4.1.

Being part of the Bolton Hotel, Artisan is backed by the property's accommodation and function facilities.

For MICE organisers, it suits business breakfasts and lunches, client and delegate dinners, high-tea functions and pre- or post-meeting dining close to government and CBD offices. See more Wellington venues for events across the region.
