It’s a below average hotel for the price paid. Dirty beds and toilet. Unhygienic breakfast and very limited eating options for breakfast. Staff never helps on anything. No parking or stopping point for pick up and dropping off travelers. Overall a very bad experience.

During this business trip stay, we encountered extremely hot weather, and the air conditioning in all three booked rooms failed. Despite the front desk offering a full refund for one night for each room, they stated they couldn't process it because the booking was made through Expedia. After following up with Novotel through Expedia, the best they could offer was a disappointing 25% discount. The conditions in the rooms were uninhabitable, making it impossible for anyone to sleep due to the intense heat and humidity. We were penalised for using Expedia

I booked three rooms for a business trip and in all three rooms, the air-conditioning did not function, making for impossible and very uncomfortable sleeping conditions. Not good enough

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Location ideal, staff fantastic, rooms old but clean. The only negative was that on the hottest two days of the year thus far, the air conditioning broke down. I did ask to have it fixed however they claimed the whole system was broken which on speaking to other guests whose rooms were cold, I had to question. Obviously, not a weekend fix.

Great Food
It was a pleasant stay. It was disappointing not to have a view of anything but the atrium but I think this is a common issue in Melbourne. Menu was great. I would consider staying again.

A quiet stay with standard service. Concierge on Saturday afternoon was brilliant. We weren’t made aware of the major renovations occurring. Room had an internal window that looked out over the renovations and into the pool and gym. Because of this the privacy was lacking in our room and public spaces. Stayed in a family suite. The second ‘bedroom’ was small and the door wouldn’t stay shut as the strike plate was missing. The bathroom door couldn’t be locked, it was sticky. Beds were suitably comfortable. Overall a decent stay for the night even if it was quite pricey. Would consider alternatives and weigh up the options of booking again.

Had a great stay at the Novatel. We ordered the breakfast with our package and it was well worth it. My only let down was the sleeping pillows were to soft for my liking.

Friendly staff, decent size room, well equipped gym. The hotel decor is quite tired. The most frustrating element was the WiFi. It was barely over a 1mb speed for the whole duration of my stay, which is laughably slow.
