The Great Ponsonby Arthotel. $200/$400.
Just enter this lovely house built in 1898, perfectly located three blocks from the rhythm of the bohemian street Ponsonby Road, and the traveler starts relaxing immediately and surrenders to the enchantment of the trip. “What do you want to do during your trip”? Ask owners Gerry and Sally, and that one question generates a well of advice for the visitor, usually things not previously thought of. In suites, bedrooms or the luxury loft, there are delicious, heart shaped chocolates by the bed, sights of a large garden, a wide range of wonderful art pieces and decoration will be the perfect relaxing point for the visitor’s beginning and ending of the day. Well traveled and expert guides, the complete team of the house know how to make the stay of each visitor a direct ride to wonderland. Heavenly a la carte breakfast included.
