Smaller room than I expected but the view was great. Noise from Cavill Avenue was loud until late on Saturday and one drink on Sunday night kept us awake even with the balcony door shut on the 30th floor!

Extremely disappointed in value for money, for what I paid I was expecting a lot more. They claim jetting spa bath - it should be described as jetted bath. The room was quite small with not even anywhere to sit other than the bed. The balcony was small with cheap plastic bunnings furniture and not a single picture on the wall. The room was bland and boring. We went there for our 10 year wedding anniversary and it was felt ruined. It is not worth the $360 paid and then to find out you have to pay an additional $18 for parking which is shared with the shopping centre so we had to park way on the other side of the car park and cart our luggage across. Very disappointed considering we could have gotten a lot nicer for a lot less $$

I paid top dollar for accomodation and couldn’t park my car in the same complex, that’s an extra 50 dollars to our trip, to park our car then carry all of our luggage thru a shopping centre. Check out at 11 the pool didn’t open for the kids on a Sunday morning till after 10 .

Neat and tidy hotel, great entrance, room was serviced daily, beautiful spa bath. Staff were great, always greeted with a friendly smile and very helpful. Buffet breakfast was delicious and good value for money. Only downside was that night time was a bit noisy with being near Cavill Avenue.

It is very convenient when staying at this hotel as it is only two minutes walk to the beach and shops are just downstairs. The downside: bathroom is really small and there are cockroaches on the property.

Very very disappointing. Was looking forward to staying at Novotel. The hotel called us on our way there from the Airport to tell us they had a booking for the weekend and needed to cancel ours. Put us in another Hotel which again was disappointing. Not much of an apology. Were not offered an upgrade or any kind of compensation for our disruption. I’m trying not to sound greedy. But there was no real apology. Oh we were told it wouldn’t cost us any more money. So it shouldn’t. Wasn’t my fault. Felt like we had been downgraded. Was not happy at all with where they moved us. Thanks for nothing Novotel.
