Liked: Staff & service
I came with a very high expectation when Novotel was recommended to me. However, I was disappointed that the facility seemed to be in average condition and some of the facilities were not operational e.g. swimming pool. I also did not like the internet speed which hindered my work which made me leave a day before my checkout date. The telecom in my room was so bad, I could barely hear the person on the other side and the buttons on the telephone did not have legible numbers. On the positive side, the receptionist was quite graceful and was willing to make me feel very comfortable. I like to specifically mention Jane who did an excellent job cleaning my room. Not to mention Precious at the restaurant who despite my many demands was gracious enough to always meet my all of my requests.

I had a delightful time here!! One of the best hotels in PH I can bet. Very secure (3 levels of security checks for every car with a dog and an x ray machine for bags near the front door). In a hidden spot so there is privacy with a great view of the city. They have shuttles and a free breakfast buffet every morning with fresh fruit juice and on demand omelettes. They have a great pool and you can choose to sit outside during the day or in the evening near the pool. They have a nice bar area with plenty of drinks and a screen that shows sports. Their staff are all so helpful, professional and accommodating; from the front desk to the housekeeping staff. I was very impressed with the free wifi, air conditioning, and how quickly power was restored when it would be switched off. They also have an international card reading machine so you can use your American card with no issues!! They have tennis courts and two elevators, with a restaurant that takes orders a La carte throughout the day until the dinner buffet in the evening (you have to pay for this- usually around $11K Naira). They have American foods and tradition Nigerian foods. My room was really nice and the bathroom was so cool! It fit all my needs and blew my expectations. My only detractors are that the carpet needs to be replaced because it is worn and dirty (in the room and the hallway on the 3rd floor). I did also wish they had microwaves in the rooms or located somewhere else. I’m not sure how that would affect the

Quick overnight stay

Stayed one night on a weekend, not very busy, could do with a coat of paint on the outside but the inside (especially the room) is nicely renovated, clean, well maintained, mostly everything worked, service was very responsive and staff very helpful. A couple of minor gripes: the phone in the room wasn't working but this was fixed within an hour, the TV in the room was too small for a room that size, and the elevators make a slightly disconcerting squeaky noise which really should be sorted out. Overall there are more luxurious hotels in PH but this is a very good option for location I needed to be.
