There was absolutely no facilities which are bare minimum, like - no iron board or coffee machine or water bottles in the room. Staff was not available most of the time to make the sofa bed, and the worst of all - no one picks up the front desk phone. You literally need to walk down to them every time. Breakfast was decent and locality is well connected.

Budget Novotel

Certainly not the usual standard of a Novotel - it was connected to sister hotel the Ibis and it certainly felt like they put a lick of blue paint on an Ibis. By far the poorest Novotel I’ve stayed in but comfortable for a lower end hotel.

Worst of the Novotel we have stayed

Vacation | Family We had a horrible experience at Novotel. Firstly we had prepaid two rooms for 2 nights. We were stuck in Zermatt due to storm and messaged asking them to cancel one day and requested if they can refund. They didn't respond. Next day we messaged letting them know that we are on the way and we will be checkinf in for the night, again no response. When we finally made it late at 9 PM for 2nd night. They said our booking doesn't exist and after showing the receipt amd proof of my emails they said they gave our rooms due to no-show. The receptionist was very rude. When I asked at the bar if I could order take out for kids; the staff was rude and and said no instead of helping me. Eventually after arguments the rooms thry gave us were a downgrade from what we had booked. They basically charged us for two nights and gave us a downgraded room for one night. I have traveled and stayed in Novotel in Paris, Brussels, Costa Rica but never had such a bad experience.

Liked the easy 5 minute walk to Hardbrucke rail station. It's in a quiet and safe area of the city. The pool was good although a little on the cool side. The room was quite spacious and comfortable. We slept really well.
