Great location, lovely staff, pity about the lifts. With only two lifts servicing 20 floors and no service elevator for the staff, between competing for a lift with housekeeping and tour groups, you can easily wait 10 minutes just to get one to your floor only to find it full. Stairs not an option. With more lifts this would be another five star Fable.

Absolutely LOVE it! Fable did not disappoint. The room was lovely, clean and cosy. Loved the bed and comfortable pillows, had the best sleeps every night. Hotel is handy to local bars, restaurants and cafes all within walking distance. The Fable is situated in a very convenient spot close to everything, shops and galleries and the Cathedral. I highly recommend and would stay there again. Thank You, Fable for such a lovely stay. Oh forgot to mention if you hire a car there is Park Mate and Wilson Parking less than 40 seconds away from the hotel, cheaper than valet parking at the hotel.

A perfect room and stay. Beats most overseas hotels we have stayed at. Very quiet, good lighting, good internet, plenty of sockets, comfortable bed, good and quiet heat pump system, plenty wardrobe space and drawers. Robes and slippers. Floor space was a wee bit tight but perfectly fine. Right across the street from New Regent street with all its dining options and tram. On a whim decided to go to the Theatre across the street. Perfect. So very walkable to everything Christchurch has to offer. Only thing on the downside was a bit of a long wait for the lefts/elevators...but we were on holiday, not rushing off to a conference so it wasn't a big deal.

Fable properties are usually unique and special, but this was ultra-ordinary with indifferent service. Situated in a convenient location it's probably good for business travellers but completely lacks character and atmosphere.

The girl working the evening of Oct 12th around 6 30pm was short with me and barely looked up when I was asking about some questions related to check-out - not very good customer service. Also, the body wash wasnt refilled when I checked- in to the room. Luckily I had my own. I informed the house keeping staff the following day and it was again missed out when the room was serviced. Lastly, they only have nespresso coffee in the room and every morning I had to go downstairs to buy coffee as the room did not have regular instant coffee and I do not like nespresso. This is was inconvenience.
