Pros:

The room was adequate and the gym was excellently equipped. It was also close to the train into the city which was easy to navigate. Breakfast was also lovely.

Cons:

I hate to make a comment on the staff but I was honestly appalled at their customer service. Every small thing seemed to be a huge hassle for them. They all seemed quite unhappy to have to interact with the guests at all. I asked for a glass and some water my first night and was sent back and forth between reception and the bar 3 times before eventually being sent away with a small glass and being told to drink the tap water from the bathroom in the room. I ordered food from the restaurant and despite my request for no coriander the dumplings came filled with it and I couldnt eat them. No refund or alternative was offered and nobody even asked if my food had been ok. Another issue is that no food is served between 5 and 6pm except "snacks" with bizarre options like 10 spring rolls or a side salad. I was really jetlagged but they refused to even let any of us sit down in the restaurant before 6pm on the dot. I thought I was being overly harsh but my friend came to join me in a separate room for some of the trip and had similar issues and I overheard another family also complaining. We have both worked in hospitality for many years so are generally very leniant when it comes to the staff. My friend also waited over 30 minutes to check in to her room late at night. There were also no provisions for transfer to the airport outside of train times except to go get a bus in the middle of the night as a young woman alone. This was sold under the guise of being "eco friendly". The list goes on and on. Had the staff seemed even the slightest bit happier it would have made a huge difference but they were consistently rude across multiple days and staff members. I will know not to stay with Novotel again.

Overall this hotel was perfect- close to train station, great breakfast and nice lobby!
Pros:

The lobby and bathrooms in the rooms were very nice! When I travel I look for nice lobbies and bathroom cleanliness and modern look. This hotel had both!

Cons:

I did not like the mattress in the room, they can use more comfort. Maybe because this hotel was close to the airport it does not have that level of comfort.

Cons:

50 minuten wachten voor het inchecken.
