Nice for a stopover.

Reception areas and bar/restaurant are modern and fresh, rooms a little dated but clean and comfortable. The pool was nice to be able to cool off in on a hot day after a long drive from the Alps. The evening meal was nice, and so was the breakfast. Staff mostly helpful, however we did feel at times the service was little below what we've come to expect from Novotel. For example, my wife was in need of some sanitary products on the morning of our departure, the receptionist said they had run out and hadn't gotten around to ordering anymore. No effort was made to assist beyond this, which was a disappointing end to the stay.

Could have been great, enjoyed but but snooty

No milk in room, blamed plastic, but could have a paper carton on the room fridge 2 coffees in a 4 person room Still the silly uncomfortable sofa beds… can’t someone invent a god one Ran out of the bacon (which was lovely)… until no more and 25 minute wait and still none. Very continental with large range of cheeses and high end dining and breakfast (no coco pops here). Pool was basic but nice Not cheap Scruffy area but interior smart. Good kids internal area Door creak and don’t shut behind you, Fan in toilet rubbish Only half a roll of toilet paper (shouldn’t have to ask for) Such a wet bathroom with no extraction and shower screen 50% of shower and water everywhere

Decevant

Déçus de cette nuit passee au Novotel. Au 1er coup doeil, nous sommes surpris par la beauté, la deco de l'entrée, bar, restaurant. En revanche, lorsque l'on monte dans les etages ,une tres mauvaise odeur regne, comme dans notre chambre. Le lit netait pas tres fait, aveec une alese jetable dechiree a plsuieurs endroits. Les oreillers n'étaient pas du tout confortable...et pour finir, le flacon pour le savon liquide à main etait vide. Pas la hauteur des novotels que nous avons pu frequenter.

Disappointing

Easy to find from motorway but a good way out of town centre which can be reached by bus from just outside hotel. Room quite good with big TV but only one English language channel but very stingy with tea and coffee which was only available with paper cups.. Restaurant very disappointing. After not very nice main course (steak and unappetising looking baked potato) waiter asked if we would like dessert. We said yes and he left to get us a menu but simply never came back. On the plus side selection at breakfast was very good.
