Another Brilliant stay at the Novotel. We took the opportunity to return and could not have been happier. From check in to check out it was a fantastic experience. The hotel is situated perfectly right on the beach at north Wollongong. Always exceptionally clean. The rooms are spacious with great views and very comfortable beds. The dining options at the hotel are great. Palisade kitchen and bar never disappoints with an excellent range of food catering to all tastes. The proximity to local attractions and the warm and welcoming staff always make the Novotel a great experience either for business or pleasure! Highly recommended!

“Beautiful views”

This hotel was nice but very dated. I had a room with a big balcony but be careful as the day loop curtains are quite sheer and you can share more than expected with your neighbours!! Decor was nice but very basic and the bathroom whilst having a big bath was actually on the small side Parking on site was expensive but the views were amazing. Great coffee shops around the place made it feel very comfortable If I was going back to Wollongong I would stay here for sure

“Not the worst but not impressed”

This place is a bit of a mixed bag. On one hand, they have bars and restaurants attached and a cute pool area (all of which look new and have great vibes), a cute pool area, prime location, and parking on site (for a fee that I’m pretty sure they clearly advertise).

This place is a bit of a mixed bag. On one hand, they have bars and restaurants attached and a cute pool area (all of which look new and have great vibes), a cute pool area, prime location, and parking on site (for a fee that I’m pretty sure they clearly advertise). On the other hand the room we got was a let down - Room 508. Even though it was very spacious, it was clean, and I have no issues with the bathroom at all (also very spacious), the view was so disappointing, we could hear the people in the next room as clear as day, you have to pay for wifi, and there were no ceiling lights. Now, we booked with a third party and only stayed one night so I can appreciate that someone has to stay in what is clearly the worst room in the hotel and im under no illusions that our kind of booking would be at the very bottom of the VIP list to them but considering the price we paid and the hotel chain they are, I expected better. The bad view I can live with I guess (even if it is disappointing to stay in a beachside hotel where the room faces towards the beach but all you can see is the glass ceiling of the hotel bar) but hearing our neighbour through the adjoining door and also hearing anybody talking in the hallway was really unnerving. And then no cable tv and no free wifi? Come on. Additionally, the screen in the lift was all cracked and looked like someone got their head smashed into it. Not a great look for the hotel. Oh and we got to the breakfast buffet an hour before it closed and neither the coffee station or the cereal bar had any full cream milk left. Like, I get that maybe I just got to the coffee station at a bad time but then none at the cereal bar either? We had to ask a staff member to add some and they did so straight away but yeah, just another little thing that added to this stay being sub par. As my title says, definitely not the worst but I expected better from what we paid. I would only recommend this hotel to people who don’t mind eavesdropping and prefer to light their room with small bedside lamps and one larger desk lamp.
