Reception did not charge the correct amount when checking in and did not advise until check out. Look a long time to check in and out. Not my normal experience at Novotel darling harbour. My husband waited down at reception for 12mins to get card activated for gym and pool and could not be served so he went back to the room without using the facilities

I have to commend that the staff in this hotel are very professional, courteous, friendly, engaging and obliging. Their service is so extraordinary, very commendable and so exceptional. There was a sign on our door knob saying that our room has been cleaned thoroughly which made us feel at ease. The service from the staff are so much BETTER than Sofitel Darling Habour which we stayed in before! We got a room upgrade (platinum member) and a generous welcome gift without even having to ask! Which, we did not get ANY from Sofitel DH! We will definitely be here again soon in the next few weeks and have booked a room here and are so looking forward to it! GOOD JOB GUYS and KEEP IT UP!!! :)

Adam Business - 04/05/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Room was fine and presented well. Unfortunately the service of particular staff members was poor - ranged from not receiving a priority welcome as a platinum member & issues with breakfast orders being mixed up. When we spoke with the staff, it was almost as if we were an inconvenience for them.

Stayed 2 nights over the Easter break and had another great stay. This is a really good hotel to stay in and we love it. Always well priced with breakfast included, nice new rooms, great location with the "Darling Square" night vibe, terrific pool and Gym, very friendly staff. Accor should be very proud of this hotel and we will be back for sure. Thank you to all the staff for making our stay another good one.

We had a lovely room overlooking the Chinese Gardens. Room was very clean & housekeeping did a great job every morning. The Pumphouse bar & restaurant next door is used for dinner. We had a lovely meal there one night & Accor pus members can use your discount there. Breakfast was in the hotel dining area & cooked to order which was excellent. All staff we encountered at reception & dining were extremely friendly & efficient. The hotel is close to Darling Harbour,China town,Haymarket & public transport. We had a lovely stay & will definitely return.

Hi geoff274, Thankyou for choosing to stay with us recently and also for your loyalty as a loyalty member. We are thrilled to receive your great feedback and look forward to seeing you again soon. Regards Scott
