The hotel is located in the heart of Auckland's old town, and is very convenient for restaurants, bars, and shopping. An old house that feels like home. Breakfast is prepared on-site by a dedicated chef for each guest, and it is delicious. The service staff were very friendly and enthusiastic, and they even reserved a parking space for us. All in all, everything is fine. I will stay here again next time.

This is a charming B&B with a great location very close to all the shops and restaurants in Ponsonby but still walkable to Sky Tower and the harbour. Each day we were greeted by friendly staff who served a great breakfast. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the room had air conditioning which was a bonus. Free off street parking made it easy to just leave our car at the hotel and enjoy our 3 days in Auckland. We would definitely recommend this B&B.

The hotel is in a beautiful large older house in the Ponsonby neighborhood. Our room was large and comfortable. It was a short walk from the hotel to a street lined with restaurants, cafes, shops and bars. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

Handy for the restaurants and shops in Ponsonby and close to the city. But the room was cramped and in need of a makeover.

Our stay was short but amazing. Our host made us feel at home. The house and rooms are charming and had everything we needed. The grounds are great and inviting. We had a little rain but still enjoyed the birds and the quiet atmosphere. The views on to the city and sky tower are perfect. Walking to dinner was not a problem and we had awesome Cambodian food at Tinfenys in the ponsonby central food court.

The Great Ponsonby is a place full of character and quirky… we loved it! All the staff are so kind, friendly and helpful. They even did our laundry! Breakfast was great. Lots of places to dine within very easy walking distance. Wish we could have stayed longer.
