Really lovely to walk into the room and see the beach. Very clean and comfy. The cockatoos made themselves at home on our balcony and even tried to sneak into our room for our free hotel biscuits. It would be nicer if the bed faced the other way then we could lay in bed looking at ocean

We recently enjoyed a 3-night family stay at Novotel Wollongong Northbeach with our 2-year-old and found it to be an excellent choice for families. The hotel’s location is superb, right across from North Wollongong beach, offering stunning ocean views from our room balcony which was very relaxing. The rooms are spacious, clean, and nicely decorated with family-friendly amenities. The hotel features a heated outdoor pool, perfect for little ones to splash around safely, and a welcoming outdoor dining area where kids’ meals are wholesome and generously served. Staff were very helpful and accommodating, especially with family needs, and the buffet breakfast had a great variety that suited both adults and children. Overall, the Novotel Wollongong Northbeach offers a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable stay for families with young children, making it a top pick for a beachside family getaway
