Had a little wait to check in but other than that it was a great stay. Easily located, a short walk into Sydney. We made use of long stay parking next door - perfect for our short cruise holiday.

I love Novotel hotels in general but this one has the added advantage of an amazing location. It is walking distance to everything in the city. The rooms are well equipped and in good condition. Breakfast was great. I could not fault it in any way at all. Great value for money.
