Super-attentive and individualised stay: the staff were able to accommodate all our needs in a friendly, non-fussy way. The building is beautiful, the room a good size with all the touches you'd expect from a hotel at this level. Location is excellent for dining and entertainment on Ponsonby Road. If you have a car, parking was straightforward and easy to come by. It is also pretty quick to access the city centre (CBD) and motorway links. Highlights were the complimentary drinks and canapes every evening in the library where we were able to meet and chat with fellow guests or just relax with a book. A big shout out to Anastasiia, Annabelle and Peter for exceptional service.

Hotel's Favorite
Me and my husband went for a getaway before I give birth. And we loved the service, the staff were very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast in bed best idea everr! Really generous portion and it was delicious. We got the Fitzroy Breakfast & the Avocado & Pea mash. You can choose what kind of milk you would like they have all options. And you can remove and add things to your breakfast as well. The bed id say wasn’t comfortable for a pregnant lady. But it would’ve been if I wasn’t so pregnant. They offer Sky, and plenty of movie options. They also offer in the room some delicious snacks apart of the room to enjoy at no extra cost, and a Dyson hairdryer which was fantastic! Lots of little great stuff. The location of the hotel is perfect! Super close to Ponsonby Central, unfortunately it was raining when we stayed there so we couldn’t enjoy the walk to Ponsonby. Beautiful area, and plenty of parking space. I definitely recommend this place, we will also be coming back!

I just finished a five night stay at this marvelous boutique hotel. The staff were lovely and attentive and the amenities can’t be beat. The breakfast (delivered to your room) was fantastic and the free mini-bar was replenished daily with snacks, coffee, and tea. There’s also free wine and beer in the library from 4:00 to 10:00; I met some nice fellow guests there. I travel a lot and this was hands down the best hotel stay I’ve had - the people make it special. I can’t recommend it enough and hope to return. My only regret is that I forgot to write down the name of the shampoo/conditioner/body wash provided - I want to take some home with me to the US!

My husband and I have stayed in a lot of 5 star hotels around the world and this one in our own little country is the BEST in Auckland! The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly you feel super welcome the moment you walk in!! And all the free benefits you get with your room is super generous and well worth your stay. I would stay again in a heartbeat and we both highly recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for a luxury stay.

We stayed for two nights in the Mitchell Suite at the end of an epic NZ adventure. This was by far the swankiest place we stayed on our trip and this 10-room boutique property doesn't skimp on luxury, from high style rooms, a clean modern bathroom, great extras (e.g., Dyson hair dryer), and complementary beer and wine from 4-10 pm daily in the hotel's stylish "library." While we heard a little street noise, the room was really quiet given it's close proximity to Auckland's hippest bars and restaurants. Note, many of the rooms are accessible by stairs only, but if you don't mind hoofing it up a flight, you'll feel rewarded beyond measure. I felt that many of the amenities were far above and beyond my expectations and the price point. A definite highlight.

Dear Lisa, Thank you for the wonderful review! It is great reading that you had an enjoyable stay with us, we do appreciate the time you have taken to describe every little aspect of our offerings in detail. Moreover, we are delighted you shared that the room prevented all the external noise from coming in! As per the lift comment, you could always request to be downstair as well, and we will happily accommodate it where possible. It was a pleasure meeting you, hope you had a safe flight back! See you another time, Kind Regards, Anastasiia Loginova Operations Manager Hotel Fitzroy curated by Fable

Wonderful experience with engaged staff in a boutique hotel setting. From check in to the 5pm drinks and hors d'oeuvres in the library, well appointed rooms and a breakfast to die for, we really enjoyed our stay. Well done team Hotel Fitzroy.

Everything about this hotel is perfection. It's warm, welcoming without being intrusive. Love the library with the afternoon drinks and nibbles. The breakfast in bed is a treat. The staff are amazing and service extraordinares all around. Thank you to Pete and Kal who made our stay in Auckland better.

Hotel Fitzroy did not disappoint. From outside, the hotel is unassuming. The moment you enter, you are greeted with a luxurious smell that pervades the whole building. Check in was pleasant with a welcome tea and donut. The manager, Pete, knows his stuff and we were looked after well by Pete and his team. You just need to stay to experience it for yourself. Thank you Pete and Hotel Fitzroy. We hope you were not too far or we will make it a yearly stay.

This was a strange hotel that, in our mind, doesn’t really work. The rooms, despite being called suites, were nicely decorated but very small. The nice idea of serving complimentary drinks I the evening was spoiled by the fact that the room where they are served only seats about 3 people and there were at least 10 people trying to get in. But the strangest thing was breakfast. While the food was very nice, there is nowhere to sit to eat it. You either have to sit in bed or sit outside on the deck (that is not enclosed and pretty chilly) which only seats 2 couple at a time. Really spoiled the whole experience and just left us feeling this was over-priced and not very convenient.

Dear Carol, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! I am sorry to hear that we didn't meet your expectations. We do appreciate your positive comments regarding the design, the idea of complimentary Hors d’oeuvres, and the breakfast food quality. We do understand the facilities of the hotel as well as its expanses did not meet your needs, however, as a 10-room boutique hotel, we are offering a distinct personality, intimate experience, and personalized service, boutique hotels are generally much smaller than traditional hotels. By looking at your reservation, I can see that you have processed the booking through our Fable website, which tells you all about the room sizes as well as shows numerous pictures of rooms and public spaces. Apart from it, our pre-arrival letter gives even clearer indication about your upcoming stay, which includes the breakfast service description: Your rate is inclusive of breakfast, which is always served in your room (or at one of our outside tables, weather permitting). We do ask customers to provide a specific time for breakfast so that we can accommodate everyone's needs such as to be seated. As we are very disappointed that we let you down, we would like to learn more, to that end please contact me at om@hotelfitzroy.co.nz at your convenience, I would love it if you could provide more information about the service and the location aspects as well so that we can improve our services for the guests. We hope that you will give us another opportunity to welcome you back in the future, Looking forwards to hearing from you! Kind Regards, Anastasiia Loginova Operations Manager Hotel Fitzroy curated by Fable
