Our room however was pretty ordinary. Smelt of vomit and some large red wine stains on carpet. ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Chelsea 15 Apr 2025 Room smelt damp. Shower had mould, needs a good bleach. Front reception at checkin maybe spoke 2 words. Wasn’t very welcoming. On check out, the staff member was great. Breakfast was really nice. Restaurant staff were all lovely ##### Chelsea Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael 8 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities All round very good. Great location, close to beach and quiet. Surprisingly good bistro restaurant at the hotel and had a lovely meal the one night we stayed and then buffet breakfast the morning we left. Will be back. ##### Michael Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 26 Apr 2025 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort Perfect location, looks good from outside, however room had a huge red stain next to the bed. First thought was blood but more likely a wine stain. Lights on walls all damaged and hanging off and then no USB ports anywhere. Not what I expect from the Novotel brand. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matt 10 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed 2 nights, the room was nice, clean and it was refreshing to stay in a hotel that had a shower that didnt flood the bathroom floor for a change. We got in later on the first night but were still able to get a really nice meal in the restaurant at 8:30pm. Our only gripe was the lack of a smart TV. ##### Matt Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Louisa 5 Oct 2023 Liked: Staff & service, amenities Disliked: Cleanliness NO water bottles or any minibar in room. had to drink tap water. room was looking tired and not overly clean. Huge thickness of dust under the bed. Bed was comfortable. ##### Louisa Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ms. Arvita 23 Jul 2024 The location was great, the lady that checked us in was very polite and they were quick to attend the blockage with the sink. However, we also had an issue with the shower drain and the bathroom was flooded with water and we had to put our towels to clean it up. They also charges me extra for drinks when I was give. Drink vouchers for the bistro at breakfast time. But they refunded that promptly. ##### Ms. Arvita Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kirsty 11 Sept 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness The hotel is in a great location at Newcastle Beach close to restaurants and shops. The area is very walkable. They only ever seemed to have one person at the front desk and when we checked in there was no help with the bags other than pointing out the baggage cart. When we asked for help with the bags we were told that we would have to wait 45 minutes for any help (from the car to the room). The cleanliness of the room was unacceptable. There was a nasty stain on the bed cover and in the three days I stayed at the hotel, the bed cover was not changed and it was clear that no one inspected it or they surely would have changed it. Also, washing of the coffee cups in the room was totally inadequate. There were coffee stains on the outside the the mugs that were presented as clean and ready for use. ##### Kirsty Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Steve 5 Apr 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities The staff were very friendly and helpful and the location is great, but the ocean view balcony room we booked was in fact a room looking directly into an office building with a slight view of the water over top of the office building. The office staff were very visible to us and had a direct view to our room which was very unnerving. The balcony was also locked and not useable. The room also had a musty/cleaning product smell that was very noticeable. These items unfortunately made our stay at Novotel disappointing, despite the extremely nice front desk staff and great area the hotel is located in. The room we were in should be properly advertised and not over-sold. We would not have paid as much as we did had we known the actual situation. ##### Steve Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Morris Sydney - Handwritten Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Morris-Hotel-Sydney.h1738408.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Sydney by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-InterContinental-Sydney.h9035.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Hilton-Sydney.h16892.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Sydney Darling Harbour by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Sydney-Darling-Harbour.h41523348.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Sydney.h15886.Hotel-Information) > > [Pullman Sydney Hyde Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Pullman-Sydney-Hyde-Park.h14111.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Sydney.h2220.Hotel-Information) > > [Aiden by Best Western Darling Harbour](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Aiden-By-Best-Western-Darling-Harbour.h67610514.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Rocks by Ode Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Harbour-Rocks-By-Ode-Hotels.h40904.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Hotels-Ibis-Newcastle.h892394.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Sydney on Darling Harbour](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Novotel-Sydney-On-Darling-Harbour.h26579.Hotel-Information) > > [Sydney Harbour Marriott Hotel at Circular Quay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Sydney-Harbour-Marriott-Hotel-At-Circular-Quay.h18811.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradox Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Paradox-Sydney.h564600.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Sydney Parramatta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Novotel-Sydney-Parramatta.h17525.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Mascot Central](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Mascot-Central.h15130172.Hotel-Information) > > [Pullman Sydney Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Pullman-Sydney-Airport.h15271653.Hotel-Information) > > [Rydges Sydney Airport Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Rydges-Sydney-Airport-Hotel.h5932305.Hotel-Information) > > [Veriu Green Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Veriu-Green-Square.h33512844.Hotel-Information) > > [Ibis Budget Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Newcastle.h9627133.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Sussex Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Sussex-Street.h25019183.Hotel-Information) > > [The Urban Newtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Urban-Newtown.h9140131.Hotel-Information) > > [SKYE Suites Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-SKYE-Suites-Sydney.h24507540.Hotel-Information) > > [Rydges Australia Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Tank-Stream.h11718621.Hotel-Information) > > [PARKROYAL Darling Harbour, Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-PARKROYAL-Darling-Harbour.h22576.Hotel-Information) > > [The Grace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Grace-Hotel.h460380.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Shangri-La-Sydney.h11974.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Kent Street, Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Kent-Street.h19290784.Hotel-Information) > > [Wake Up!
