"Outstanding service. It's great to stay in accommodation that speaks of New Zealand . The New Zealand artwork and décor sets the Great Ponsonby apart from anywhere else."

Breakfasts are legendary – friendships have been forged in the dining room, crepes lingered over on the verandah.

Eleven rooms of varying size and price.  All have everything you could need and New Zealand and Pacific artworks.  Courtyard studios are bigger than villas. Spacious suites and penthouse are over twice as large again.

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.
