Perfect location and friendly staff
Fable Christchurch is in a great location, within walking distance to the Christchurch tram and many restaurants.
The hotel lobby is compact, but lovely and there is a good priced happy hour with decent wine and beer choices in the bar.
Staff were great at the check-in desk and specifically,

Fantastic place at a great price.
First rate all the way. From the location to the cleanliness to the breakfast. We landed at 9 am and they were happy to store our luggage until check in time. It’s right in the heart of the city. So much to see and amazing gelato to eat nearby. Highly recommended.

Very central and well maintained hotel. Only issue was the parking which was not included in cost and was then an issue to organise although plenty of parking options were available.
