Novotel Perpignan Rivesaltes 4 gwiazdki

It is a normal Novatel standard. But... The restaurant was not able to provide a hot evening meal. Only cold fare. Cooked breakfast was available. The staff including the waiters were very friendly. Does the hotel have a staff shortage problem?

When we arrived there was only one person on reception and she was quite busy We probably waited 10 mins to check in and she was a bit snappy saying she was on her own The room was a bit cramped and dated but clean & comfortable Perfectly acceptable for a night The pool area is ok The restaurant isn’t great , the staff are lovely but the food combinations weren’t that nice , I just think they’re trying too hard to be a gourmet restaurant when actually good simple food would be preferable Overall an acceptable place to stopover when driving from France to Spain and good location to the motorway

Hotel is very close to the motorway to Barcelona and as such it was our choice for the night! The hotel is a bit dated but all was clean and the staff was very friendly! The restaurant food was very nice and once again the staff was very nice! Good hotel for a quick stopover but maybe not for longer stays!

Finding the hotel was easy, it is part of a hotel complex in the area. The hotel itself provided pretty much what you would expect from a Novotel. Parking is adjacent to reception and check in was quick and painless. We were in our room within 5 minutes of arriving. Note that there is no lift so if you are 'senior' or have heavy bags it might be best to request a ground floor room. The room itself was much as I remembered it from previous visits apart from the broken hairdryer and missing bedside cabinet that had been ripped off the wall and removed. No replacement hairdryer available from reception - Not a issue for me with my #3 haircut! The swimming pool was looked nice but did not have time to make use of it. The restaurant had a reasonable choice of food and is child friendly. Breakfast was buffet style and the food was plentiful and fresh. However, I though the price was a little 'Full' compared with other establishments. There was a nice small bar adjacent to the restaurant that had a good range of drinks. Most staff were friendly but I had to wait at Reception to check out while staff finished their conversation.

I often travel between Spain and Switzerland, and Novotel Perpignan Rivesaltes is a convenient stop-over near the Autoroute. Apart from the hotel restaurant, there is a pizzeria nearby as well as a large shopping centre with many more restaurants.
