"I had a wonderful stay at this accommodation. Everything is very modern, well maintained and clean. I felt very comfortable and would definitely book it again. It was also very quiet during my stay, but I was also there on a weekday. The only thing to be aware of is that some rooms don’t have windows, which isn’t entirely clear when booking. Apart from that, everything was excellent and it offers great value for money."

"Our stay at the Novotel was fantastic, the older rooms are tired and in needing for a upgrade however the grounds and facilities make up for it. The new rooms are beautiful, spacious and worth the extra money. The staff were so helpful and lovely, activities for the kids were thoughtful and well planned. The only downside to this property is the food. The food selection was minimal and there were next to no vegetables offered. You are a 30 min walk to the closest IGA or other cafe so just something to consider if you don't have a car."
