Property was clean, bed was comfortable, facilities provided was adequate. Water pressure for the shower was inadequate and trickling water. Not enough information given during check in, wifi etc, most hotels would share these basic information while checking in. Bonus was there was a coffee machine in the room with nepresso capsules. Parking was available however at an extra cost of $35, if not you had to park at the public carpark for $23 for overnight parking till 11am, definitely not $20 for a whole day like mentioned on the website. Car park was on a dirt road and did not have security cameras so had to walk to one further away with cameras and lights. Lots of food options nearby within walking distance which was good.

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.
