Good overnight stop en route to Italy . Easy to find from the main roads . Plenty of free parking and electric hook ups going in for about three cars The hotel is typical Novotel decor outside and inside Although it needed a bit of TLC , not so sure the interior decor is right for a 4* , it looked like it had been boarded up following damage !!!! The restaurant menu was limiting but adequate and a fair price . We opted for breakfast which was ample, a mixture of the usual cereal and continental meats . There was bacon and scrambled eggs but sadly cold . But it was there. Good choice of hot drinks too The room was fine all be it tired . Comfy bed and a good shower . Nice clean towels . Honestly feel it isn’t a 4* and it is over priced but that’s the world we live in now for travel . Overall it’s the friendly staff that make this hotel .

“Pros & Cons”

Not sure what people expect for their money these days but overall we had a good stay. We paid last minute €103 euros for 2 adults and 2 children with access to a swimming pool.

Not sure what people expect for their money these days but overall we had a good stay. We paid last minute €103 euros for 2 adults and 2 children with access to a swimming pool. Pros *Good quiet location (we used as a stopover to Switzerland) *Okay swimming pool for the kids to take a quick dip. Sunloungers available. *Games such as ping pong, large connect 4, footballs, badminton, boules etc and a nice green area next to the pool to play. We had great fun with the kids. *Toddler corner with large lego bricks, books and games near the bar area (great for watching the kids while enjoying a drink) *nice breakfast - (but not sure it’s worth the €15 price tag). Xx an air in or outdoors *nice outdoor seating in garden area *ice cold water dispenser to fill water bottles Cons *No air con. We stayed when it was 30degrees with only 1 small fan. *Could only open window a little as we were on ground floor with small children. Needless to say we didn’t sleep well. *Food in main restaurant wasn’t great and around €18/€23 per person. Limited menu for dinner - steak tartare, burger, steak, sausage & mash, swordfish, a salad. I had the burger and my partner had the steak. My burger was tasteless. Didn’t rate the steak - so they not season their food here? *kids menu is €13 and consists of a main and dessert. Again, not great quality for the price. Moral of the story here - try and eat before you arrive or check out the local Italian restaurants nearby. *drinks are EXPENSIVE! €9/10 a pint and €4.5 for a Coca Cola! Rooms: *are designed in a ‘retro’ style but I must say our room was really clean, 8” *no chipped furniture, no stains on carpets or walls etc. *Fluffy towels and clean bedding *kettle and some hot beverages available in room but no tea. *Bathroom looked new (although in a dated style) so no complaints here really. *Bed was comfy enough for 1 night. Check in is very Informal, it’s a laptop at a desk in the foyer - this seems to bother some people?! All in all the main thing that let it down for me was the main meal, not good quality and overpriced. It’s too hot during summer months so take an extra fan or your own air con unit.
