Needs soundproof windows due to noisy road
Pros:

I could not sleep in this hotel because the windows are not properly soundproofed. The traffic noise from the road outside was extremely loud throughout the night. This was very disappointing, especially as every other hotel of this star rating that I have stayed in has had effective soundproof windows.

It is a real let-down and gives the impression that Novotel does not adequately care about the impact of road noise on guests’ comfort. A good night’s sleep is one of the most important aspects of any hotel stay, and in this case the poor quality of the windows seriously affected my experience.

Nice hotel in a good location with parking
Pros:

The first room we were allocated had a very unpleasant sewer smell. We returned to reception who immediately moved us up several floors to a lovely room. Very happy. Nice bar and although we didn't eat there the restaurant looked nice. There was underground parking and we were lucky to actually find a space, very limited but if you can get it fantastic.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

We loved our stay there! The location was great, and having easy parking made things so convenient. Despite being central, the room was incredibly quiet—I couldn't hear any noise at all. To top it off, the staff were so nice, and they served a great breakfast. It was the perfect stay.
