There was construction works happening during our stay. It was supposed to be a relaxing getaway. Instead it was not the case, there was constant drilling and even dust coming through the site in the lobby. The entrant to the leisure centre was under construction and poorly laid out. I feel it was wrong to get this quality of stay considering the amount we paid.

The room we stayed in had a collapsed mattress on one side,it was to late to advise the staff on our first night. When we did advise the staff the next day they changed us to a different room. Also, we rang reception and room service, waited for 15 mins on the phone. In the end we just went down to reception, only to be told they were very busy,thats why they didnt answer the phone

This a great location. Easy walk to the water and the shops. Room was comfortable, with a good bed and shower. Unfortunately, the hotel has renovations happening. We were informed of this after booking. This meant that we were woken in the mornings with a jack hammer, that went on throughout the day, was not relaxing and saw us leaving our room early each day. We had a lovely balcony view, but unfortunately did not enjoy this during the day, due to the jack hammer. Noah in reception was very helpful.

We could see that the Novotel offers a great experience usually. Our room and clean and had everything we needed, we had a sea view from the balcony, the hotel bar was nice, and the staff were friendly. However, I absolutely cannot in good conscience recommend this hotel right now as there are significant ongoing works and the noise starts at 8am and is unbearable. Think jack hammer levels of noise literally starting at 8am on the dot. I am astonished that the rooms are not in any way discounted to take account of this because you really can’t be in your room beyond 8am due to the levels of noise. If I had known, I would have spent my money elsewhere I’m afraid. I’m pretty upset that I’ve paid a premium price and ended up in a room that was unbearably noisy. I would strongly recommend avoiding until the works are complete.
