The property does not have enough parking for guests and uses a first in first serve approach to the car spaces they do have available. When the parking filled up, no one advised us prior to our arrival. The overflow car parking is an extra charge and a considerable walk from the hotel (when you consider carrying bags). Overall, the hotel itself is lovely, but this experience with the parking made the stay frustrating and tainted.

I loved the experience so much, lovely quiet room , good food with everything I could need. Bed probably a bit soft for me, but perhaps I should have mentioned I like a firmer bed. I also loved the staff showing me the quickest way to the QPAC and because of that I felt very safe coming back to the hotel at night. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We stayed for 4 nights, and the experience was faultless. Great location just 5 mins walk from all the activities in South Bank. Felt safe at night. Modern hotel in excellent condition, very clean, great service from all staff. Room was very well-equipped, modern and clean. Breakfast was very good and good value. Reception and bar / restaurant area very well-presented. Good pool and well-equipped gym. Only two tiny criticisms - the outdoor pool was a little too cold to really use (I understand it can be heated), and the shower in our room wasn't very powerful. But these are tiny compared to the overall excellent experience.

A horrible experience. Booked in and they insisted I pay the hotel upfront even though I had booked via expedia and they had authenticated my credit card. Arrived at the room the corridor wall was full of patches, there were no hangars or or glasses in the room. These were delivered later. Next day return to room late afternoon, the used towels are still on the floor together with all the dirty glasses. It takes 30 minutes to have towels and clean glasses delivered to our room, told the hotel is very busy and cant provide ta quicker service. The gym is not clean and the equipment in poor repair, 3 of the 4 Bikes either had parts missing or were broken, the pedals of the elliptical trainer were so dirty that my shoes stuck to the pedals. Reported this nothing was done. The service of the room the next day was lacking, we received clean towels but all our dirty glasses were left behind. I am a silver member - when I asked why my stay did not qualify for the points I was told it was because we booked via an external booking engine. Will not use the Novotel chain if I can help it.
