Lovely staff upon arrival, fantastic bar and service area. Lovely breakfast with a massive variety of food. Very large spacious room that would have had amazing views if it wasn’t for the huge building block that is being built right in front of it (unfortunate for the Novotel as it blocks the view of the harbour which devalues the views). Would definitely stay here again.

Day two was bu...

Staff were friendly and courteous (front desk, restaurant, concierge) I left phone ch...
