Quite a lot of street noise late in the night.

Good breakfast. Requested parking when I booked but no spaces when I arrived.

Stayed in April 2024

When we arrived the sauna was out if use (part of the reason we booked here) and the Bluetooth speaker in our room didn't work and when we reported to reception just told nothing they could do. Also very over priced for drinks etc

Loved the location and our room was very comfortable

The pool is a lovely addition but a lady came in with 4 small children which made it almost unusable for a quiet morning swim. Could there be swim only times or an area laned off?

Room comfortable, spotless and very peaceful. Location just around the corner from train station so easy to get into central London. Breakfast was good and the staff very pleasant and smiling. Parking was easy to use and book.

parking isn’t great £19 each night but you have to book early as car park is very small and we don’t so we didn’t get a space

Family friendly lovely staff members, swimming pool is open until 10pm which is also fun

Air conditioning didn't work (however a fan was provided instead), room was dated and carpet needed a good clean. No locks on the toilet or bathroom door, which can be a pain if travelling with children.

Location is very good, pool is lovely and perfect for families, large tv with lots of channels, nice mini fridge and good WiFi.

Restaurant-over priced. From six people, only two people received edible food. Fish & Chips portion makes lough all table, I never seen smallest portion for £17.95(look like from kids meniu).Vegerarian meze was awful aswel, most of components from can/jar.And top on cherry: 10% service charge, then every single time you need to call waitress for drinks or to get next course,so don't think they suposed to charge you extra, also nobody informed us about service charge then seated.So if you don't want to be disappointed, better avoid Restaurant inside Hotel.

Nice hotel with spa facilities. Rooms are really spacious, beds are really good size,everything you need in the room.Also very delicious breakfast.

The snacks and drinks were expensive but there was a good selection and a self service till which made it easy to purchase.

Lovely large room with a separate toilet and shower/bathroom . Comfortable bed . We were on the 12th floor so it was nice and quiet . Great breakfast.

Poor building design meant a sleepless night listening to the rain hitting the metal balcony outside the window.also didn't like the toilet being separate to the shower/bathroom as had to move from one to the other to wash hands.

The staff were so helpful and arranged an early check in and late check out for us. The hotel was really nice. Facilities were great. The room was comfortable and the breakfast was really good.

The breakfast was nice and the kids liked the swimming pool. The view was nice too, and the location was perfect of course.

Bed

Pool, room layout, parking

Stayed in March 2024

The sink was blocked and the shower leaked but sorted when reported to reception. It was a bit strange having the toilet separate to the bathroom so no sink to wash hands didn't like the bathroom right next to bed and we had 4 of us so could have done with a bit more space in the room.

Location was perfect. The breakfast was delicious and the staff were very friendly and helpful

The room was classed as superior. I didn't think there was anything special. It was a small double. Also, the car park was incredibly hard to find. It's because it has a different postcode as it is lo ates at the back of the hotel on a service road, I would say. Nobody mentioned this when I booked parking.

The hotel was ideally located and clean and comfortable with great facilities

The room is very hot, couldn't control the Aircondition and we have to request for electric fan.

Very convenient, near to almost all the restaurants and shops. 5mins walk to train station. The staff are very helpful and friendly. This is our second time in the hotel. As always, Marissa and Toni are exeptional.

Shower/bathtub separate from lavatory - it shows the building is a bit dated (it is very well maintained).

Location is perfect for travellers using public transport. Staff were very helpful and friendly. I have said at the ibis (Novotel staff should train many of their Ibis colleagues (especially one in particular who I found to be rude).

Property was clean tidy and bed was comfortable.

Good central location, close to amenities and train station

Novotel it is what it is chain but good

The sauna seemed to be broken and the steam room was out of service. The breakfast had great variety but the hot food wasn’t great - almost as if it had been left for a while. The bedroom was way too hot but we didn’t realise how to turn down the heating until we left!

Staff on reception were very friendly and helpful and the hotel itself is lovely and comfortable.
