Gute Lage
Pros:

Bahnhof in der Nähe, die Straßenbahn hält direkt vorm Hotel.. daher auch super Direktverbindung zum Flughafen. Wenn man auf Zimmer Service verzichtet, erhält man 1 Gratisgetränk in der Hotelbar

Cons:

Der Service an der Hotelbar lässt zu Wünschen übrig.. haben 30 min gewartet, bis überhaupt jemand gekommen ist…
Das Personal an der Rezeption sollte besser mit ihrer EDV eingeschult sein!! Wollten uns taxe doppelt verrechnen…

Comfortable and convenient.
Pros:

Staff is very solicit. I could not arrive on time for the first night, I called the hotel and they assured my reservation would remain for the next day. Everything is very comfortable, airco is excellent. There is a tram stop at 90 distance. With those trams you go everywhere, including to the airport. Very practical.

Cons:

There are not too many convenience stores close by. Area/street where the hotel is located is quite boring.

Good location
Pros:

Just back from a 3 night stay at this Novotel. Ideal location with the main St Jean train station a 5mn walk and the Tram line F right outside, this goes to and from the airport so it's convenient.
We had classic rooms. Large, modern, clean. Beds were wide and very comfy. Blackout curtains and view of the patio/ garden area meant it was quiet so very good sleep.
Bathroom was functional but a bit small.
AC was a welcome addition.
Only downside was no bottles of water in the room! We were told there's a water fountain by reception with small paper cups. If we wanted large empty bottles to fill, we had to pay!! This was on some of the hottest days of the year so far so a bit "mean"!
Only a tiny selection of coffee / tea sachets in the room too.
Restaurant is closed on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Bar is manned by reception staff so only basic drinks are offered on those days too.
Despite these minors, we would be back in future.
