If you are after more availability, pleasant weather and cheaper hotel rates, visit Wellington during the shoulder season from February to March (late summer transitioning into autumn). This period offers moderate temperatures, as the summer season gives way to autumn. There are no school holidays during this time, meaning that you will have plenty of quality accommodation offers to choose from, and you won’t have to deal with the crowds that the peak season brings (the start of summer, from December to January).
