The hotel itself was fine and pretty much as described. We were a family of four and the hotel would definitely benefit from added extras like a kids play room or pool. I probably would stay here considering the price.

Great location, beautiful area. Staff were fantastic. Only downsides I can really think of were not much actually parking for guests on site unless you pay for valet, and breakfast was a bit confusing. You either pay for continental (doesn't include hot foods) or for full.

Good stay
In particular the Nepalese head of the restaurant was delightful - she was so helpful.
Our only thoughts were the corridors to the bedrooms seemed very dated not the usual standard for Novotel .
