Comfortable bed, nice lighting and well appointed room. Very professional staff throughout and check in and check out was easy. Onsite valet parking, which was very convenient. We had two meals in the hotel restaurant- and while breakfast was fab, our dinner was a bit disappointing. No hotel gym or spa. Overall a good place to stay, if a bit pricey compared to some other similar options.

The hotel was easy to find. We booked parking for two nights. The room was a good size. We were very comfortable apart from a window that rattled in the wind during the first night. It would be nice to have more than 2 teabags. It would be better to have two chairs in the room so visitors do not have to sit on the bed. Staff all very friendly.

Nice bar/restaurant area. Room reasonable size and well appointed. However, the lift to the odd numbered floors only runs from 8am to 8pm - if you're on the 7th floor and want to leave early or check in late, good luck. In addition, the rooms on the top floor only have a small window high in the wall so you can't really see out at all - avoid them. Finally, no phones in the room so there is a complicated IPad system that they spend a long time explaining when you check in.

I had a wonderful stay at Fable Dunedin. The staff were welcoming, helpful and kind. I pre-booked the valet car parking service which made travel very convenient. The facilities are beautiful and the room is stunning. I booked just the Classic room but it exceeded expectations in cleanliness, amenities and style. I would love to stay again.
