Dear R. G., We thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. We are delighted that you found our location so convenient, with the DFO right at your doorstep and easy access to everything the city has to offer. That said, we are sincerely sorry that several aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations. Your room assignment fell short of what you anticipated, and we regret any discomfort caused by the sleeping configuration and the compact layout. We also understand your disappointment with the shower design and the breakfast offering, and we are sorry these details detracted from your visit. The check-out process felt less personal than it should have, and we are sorry you were not asked about your experience upon departure. Your loyalty means a great deal to us, and we regret that the recognition you received did not reflect that.

I stayed only two nights, but it was the most comfortable sleep I've had in years. It was so quiet, surprisingly for the city center and right next to a main freeway. It was like how I imagine being in a cloud would feel. I had a great time.

Dear Crystal K., Thank you for writing a review. We are thrilled that you had the most comfortable sleep in years while staying with us. Our team is so glad the quietness and comfort stood out, and that our concierge left a warm impression. The direct link to the Exhibition Centre made attending your event easy, and we are happy that was convenient for you. We look forward to the pleasure of welcoming you back on future occasions.

The Novotel provided our family with a fantastic location to celebrate a special birthday. Dinner at Mr Carpano on level 6 had beautiful 3 courses and delightful hospitality staff.

A huge thanks to Daisy the functions manager for all her help in creating a special party for my father. Thanks Deb

Abela L. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

Hotel room was modern and comfy, but no parking on site and the breakfast food was pretty average for $45 let the overall experience down.

Dear L., Thank you for writing a review. We are delighted that you found your room modern and comfortable, and we value your overall satisfaction with your stay. However, we are sincerely sorry that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations. While our hotel does not have its own car park, we do offer convenient self-parking at the adjacent DFO South Wharf Wilson car park at $65 daily, with ticket validation available at reception. We also regret that our breakfast did not hit the mark for you. Our buffet features fresh seasonal fruits, yogurts, pastries, cereals, and a hot selection, and we also offer an à la carte menu as a lighter alternative. Your feedback about toasted muesli and fruit options has been noted. Additionally, we apologies for the oversight with the shower cap. Please note that as part of our commitment to environmental sustainability, we provide amenities such as shower caps, dental kits upon request. Our team is always on hand to assist with any extra amenities you may need. Nonetheless, we are glad that your overall impression remained positive and that you enjoyed the comfort of your room. The whole team hopes that we may see you again in the future. Kind regards, Novotel Melbourne South Wharf Team

The bed was comfortable and bathroom well appointed and lovely views towards the bay to be had in the southernmost rooms. The on site restaurant was affordable while presenting a 5 star dining experience. Be prepared for a bit of a journey to your room with an elevator to reception before a bit of a walk and further elevator to your room.

Dear Gavin, We appreciate you letting us know about your recent visit. We are delighted that you found our hotel comfortable, clean, and so conveniently placed for walking into the Melbourne CBD. It is wonderful that you appreciated the peaceful atmosphere despite our proximity to the freeway, and that your bed, bathroom, and those lovely bay views all contributed to a relaxing stay. However, we are sorry that the layout of the building made your journey to the room feel a little lengthy. Our reception sits on level five, so reaching the guest floors does require a change of lifts. Our team is always on hand to guide new arrivals through the route. Nonetheless, we are thrilled that your dinner at Mr Carpano left such a strong impression. Our chef takes great pride in crafting a five star Italian dining experience at an accessible price point, and it means a lot that you felt that balance. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for an even better experience. Kind regards, Novotel Melbourne South Wharf Team

Anthony V. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Air con in living area and bedroom not working, was at 27 degrees when we entered room and it wouldn’t go down, also both tvs did not work.Have since been offered a 20% discount for our next stay but I feel this isn’t adequate for the type of stay we had.

Dear Anthony, Your feedback matters to us. Your kind words about our night manager are warmly received, and we are glad that the team’s efforts to assist you during your stay left a positive impression. That said, we are truly sorry to hear that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations. Arriving to find the room climate control set at an uncomfortable level and discovering that the entertainment system was not functioning must have been frustrating. We also regret that the gesture extended afterwards did not feel sufficient to you, as your comfort is our priority. Nonetheless, it is heartening to know that our staff members made a genuine attempt to turn things around, and we appreciate your recognition of their dedication. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for a more enjoyable stay. Kind regards, Novotel Melbourne South Wharf Team

Southbank location is near (1 minute walk) the Direct Factory Outlet (DFO) and riverfront cafe and restraurant prescint, and is immediately next to the Melbourne Convention Centre - door directly from Hotel foyer into the Convention centre. Staff service was friendly professional and efficient.

We are thrilled that you made the most of our South Wharf location, with the Convention Centre right at our doorstep and the riverfront dining precinct just a short stroll away. It is wonderful to know that your room upgrade exceeded your expectations and that both your welcome drink and amenity hit the mark. We are also glad you took part in our Greener stay programme, it is a simple way to make a meaningful difference during your visit.

Akshay M. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

During Sunday morning breakfast there only one staff in the kitchen making eggs, wait was 20mins. For breakfast both days the selection was okay and not the best tasting. For dinner the food was sub par, needs better more experienced chef leading the Italian restaurant.

Dear Akshay, Thank you for your valuable feedback. We are delighted that your room upgrade met your expectations and that you would recommend our hotel to others. That said, we are sincerely sorry that some aspects of your stay did not live up to what you anticipated. The wait at the egg station during Sunday breakfast was understandably frustrating, and we regret that the culinary experience both in the morning and at our Italian restaurant fell short of the standard we strive for. The mix-up with your leisurely days package should not have occurred, and we appreciate you bringing it to our team’s attention so it could be resolved on the spot. Nonetheless, your willingness to recommend Novotel Melbourne South Wharf means a great deal to us, and your overall satisfaction reflects the positive impression your stay left despite these hiccups. We hope we have the opportunity of seeing you again in the future. Kind regards, Novotel Melbourne South Wharf Team

Vicki N. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

Noted that the ground floor foyer was clean but smelt of cleaning solution. Reception team were helpful and courteous. Room appeared clean. Room service food was awful, worst caesar salad I have ever had. Level 6 bar and restaurant staff were great.

Dear Vicki, We are delighted that our reception team made you feel welcome with their helpful and courteous service. It is great to know that you found your room clean and comfortable, and that our Level 6 bar and restaurant staff left such a positive impression. That said, we are sincerely sorry that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations. We regret that the room service meal fell short of the quality we aim for, and we have shared your comments with our kitchen team. We also noted your observation about the foyer, our housekeeping team works hard to keep our spaces fresh and welcoming at all times. Finally, we are pleased that our location made your conference at the Convention Centre so convenient. Being directly connected to the MCEC is something we know our business travellers truly value. We hope to see you again in the future. Best wishes, Novotel Melbourne South Wharf Team

Mick C. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

We had a really enjoyable stay overall. The staff were excellent and went above and beyond — friendly, helpful, and made us feel well looked after. The location is perfect and breakfast was delicious . The only disappointment was the bed. We were upgraded to a Deluxe King, but it turned out to be two single mattresses pushed together. They separated during the night on both nights, and my wife woke up in the gap more than once. It made sleep quite uncomfortable. Everything else was great, and we’d still return, but a proper king mattress would have made the stay much better

Dear Mick, Thank you for sharing such a valuable review. We are delighted that you and your wife had such an enjoyable stay and that our team made you feel well looked after. Their friendly and helpful approach is something we truly value. That said, we are sorry that your sleep was disrupted by the bed configuration. A restful night is essential, and we regret that this fell short for you. Our Deluxe King rooms feature zip-together mattresses, and our reception team is always happy to help with any comfort concerns during your stay. Nonetheless, it is wonderful that you loved our location and found the breakfast delicious. Our setting in South Wharf, with direct access to the convention centre and DFO shopping, really does make exploring Melbourne easy. We would love to have you return in the future. Kindest regards, Novotel Melbourne South Wharf Team

Harper C. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

Backing onto the MCEC was most convenient to access the conference I attended. A brisk walk and I was there. Being right in the middle of the city would have been ideal for some.

Dear Harper, We are grateful for the time you took to review your recent visit to our hotel. We are glad you found our direct access to the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre so convenient for your conference. It is rewarding to know our location made your business trip that much easier. That said, we are sorry the internet speed fell short during your stay. Our complimentary high-speed WiFi is designed to keep guests connected across all rooms and social spaces, and our front desk team is always on hand to help troubleshoot any connection issues. Nonetheless, we are delighted that Joanne in the restaurant left such a lovely impression. She takes great pride in looking after our guests, and we will make sure your kind words reach her. We would love to welcome you back. Best regards, Novotel Melbourne South Wharf Team

Amanda P. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Comfortable hotel located near DFO outlets. Beds were comfortable. Not a big room but did the job.

Dear Amanda, We really appreciate your feedback. We are delighted that our location suited the purpose of your family trip and that you found the beds comfortable, allowing you to rest well during your stay. Your room, while compact, met your needs, and we are pleased it served its purpose effectively. We are sincerely sorry that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations. Our reception is situated on level 5, which means guests do need to take a lift to check in before accessing the accommodation floors above. We understand this layout can feel unusual at first. We also regret the oversight with your bins on the second day, as daily housekeeping is a standard part of our service. Our team is always available to address these rare situations promptly had we been made aware. Nonetheless, being directly across from the DFO shopping centre is something we are glad you appreciated, and we hope you managed to take full advantage of the 180 plus retail brands just steps from our door. It would be a pleasure to have you return on another occasion. Kind regards, Novotel Melbourne South Wharf Team
