Ponsonby Bed & Breakfast Hotel
A delightful small bed & breakfast hotel in Ponsonby, Auckland, just a 2 minute stroll to Ponsonby’s vibrant cafés, restaurants, galleries or taxi five minutes to the harbour and Auckland city centre.
The Great Ponsonby Arthotel, established over 20 years ago, is a renovated villa located in a heritage neighbourhood.
Beautifully decorated with original New Zealand and Pacific Island artworks, filled with books, magazines, music and persian rugs, you will feel at home and relaxed in our welcoming environment.
Set within a lovely garden alongside a park there are 11 rooms to choose from (either villa rooms, courtyard studios or spacious suites).
Included in the room rate are our legendary breakfasts, unlimited Wi-Fi, parking and a daily newspaper.
Ponsonby, an urban village, is one of the earliest areas of Auckland and luckily many of the historic buildings still remain. It is also the trendiest part of town, a place where Aucklanders come to eat, drink coffee and have fun. It is very close to the city centre. So, the Great Ponsonby, set in a large, beautiful garden is in the most perfect place from which to explore Auckland.
