A man who fell two storeys at an inner-city hotel reportedly slipped over a railing while throwing up.
The man was critically injured at Auckland's Rendezvous Hotel after falling the equivalent of two storeys into a maintenance area at about 3.20 this morning.
Firefighters took more than an hour to winch the man to safety after he fell into a narrow cavity.
The area was fenced-off with a high railing.
Staff at the Rendezvous Hotel told Fairfax the man slipped over a railing while vomiting.
