First stay at Fable Christchurch
The fire alarm was on going after midnight when I needed to evacuate in front of my room had huge housekeeping trolley block way all night!
I called the reception but no one answered.
I went stairs and walked down but other people were going back to their rooms so I went back to my floor again but not able to open the door because it was locked.
So I went down stairs again and went to the reception but no one explained anything no apologies.
Finally I got back to the room around 1:30am. :(
The room was clean except coffee bench.
The wall had damaged.
I wish inside the gym had water fountain would be nice as I love sauna!
This hotel prepared for my request small gift was very nice. :)
Thank you very much!

Smaller Room Size
Room wasn’t what I expected in that is was small and smelly. It’s not bad just not a normal 4-5 star experience and I thought Fable was this.

Absolutely excellent service. So central, beautiful view.
Food was impeccable. Pricing a little high but well worth it.
Would recommend to everyone.

Fable is a really well located hotel in the middle of the CBD and the only one i came back to twice in the same trip which says a lot!
The first visit there i got a bit of a crap room (all hotels have those and they were fully booked so can't really blame em) but they fixed this on my next visit a couple of days later and i got a room with a fantastic view.
The highlight of the place is the little things. Like the thoughtfully laid out room fittings to the welcome bottle of wine which they gave me as per my request on the second time i was there. The room is also comfortable and well stocked and the climate control probably worked better than most hotels I've been in.
If there was only a few things i wish they would do is, put in a Bluetooth speaker in the room for me to stream music to, and change the showers, because they have no hand held option which just feels very weird for a place that is otherwise so well put together.

It was lovely to have a clean room with comfortable bed. Thanks to the girls.
Our meal was lovely. But most important, catching up with my eldest daughter, who have not seen for a few years. Wonderful.
