A wonderful Hotel

This is our 2nd.. stay at the Novotel Syd. Darling Harbour, and after the 1st. time, I thought it couldn't get any better, but it did. When we arrived in our taxi w e were met by a very friendly staff member to load our luggage onto a trolley to take into the Hotel for us. As I had Checked-in online before we left home, all I had to do was go to the Reception Desk, pick up the Room Key for the room already allocated and from then on everything was carried at with efficiency and friendliness. It was like a home from home atmosphere. I would recommend this Hotel to anyone wanting cleanliness, a comfortable room and friendly staff.

Disliked: Amenities
I booked queen deluxe room and the first impression of going into the room was “what! The bathroom was with accessible chair and toilet was all bubble up to the seat. I couldn’t sit and use toilet. The room was too dim to look around where my things were, the amenities were too limited to stay. The room atmosphere was really awful I can only use bed in that room. I was surprised how come I book a room like this when paying the same rate as other hotels. I didn’t request for such an accessible room. I requested to change the room and finally got a room with normal hotel vibe room. The reception staff who checked me in or who allocated that room needs to be mindfully working.

Room was ok, but as a family of 4 booking, there was only 1 chair to share & 2cups for hot drinks. The Room Attendants left our door open/unlocked two days in a row, which was very concerning considering our belongings were inside while we were out & about! We enjoyed our stay other than these few things

There's a lot to like about this property. I appreciated the location, the complimentary bar vouchers upon arrival and the room was a great size too - but there were some shortcomings. The design of the building means if your room is close to the atrium, the noice from the lobby and bar area is quite substantial, there were a few stray hairs left in the bathroom which is a bit ick and getting to the hotel from the Darling Harbour side isn't straightforward. Overall, we enjoyed out stay.
