The hotel is located in a great spot close to shopping, restaurants and within walking distance to the heart of Melbourne. However, the customer service at the hotel is lacking in all areas.

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to review your visit. It is heartening to hear your appreciation for our hotel's prime location, which offers convenience and connection to Melbourne's various attractions. We are equally pleased that our commitment to cleanliness and sustainable development initiatives met your expectations, reflecting our dedication to providing a comfortable and environmentally considerate experience. However, we regret to hear that our room service and restaurant service did not live up to the high standards we strive for. Our team works diligently to ensure timely and accurate service, and we are truly sorry if this was not your experience. We are also disappointed to learn that the customer service you received was not reflective of the friendly and helpful spirit we pride ourselves on. We always aim to deliver a seamless and enjoyable experience for our guests, and it seems we fell short in this instance. We are encouraged by your positive rating of our loyalty programme and hope that the benefits and rewards offered continue to add value to your stays with us. Your feedback is instrumental in our efforts to improve and we are grateful for your candidness on these matters. We hope we may have the occasion to welcome you back for an improved experience. Kindest regards, Novotel Melbourne South Wharf Team

Dissapointing Novotel Experience

Breakfast is a busy time, however its not ok for team members to be rude. We took advantage of the "eggs your way" and ordered two serves of fried eggs. What was served was undercooked and clearly the eggs had not set. We brought this to the attention of the waiter, the response was "what did you say? A few minuets later, the same waiter returned and slammed the plate o destroyed fried eggs in front of me. Day was was not better, the cooked selection of buffet breakfast was cold and tasteless. It's disappointing that both restaurant experiences were poor. The barista was amazing, friendly and made an excellent coffe for us both. Feedback on the room, not sure how old the couch is, however, it was filthy dirty with hair and who knows what else on it.

Dear Pablo, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. It is heartening to hear that the ease of booking through our app met your expectations and that your status as a Platinum member of our loyalty programme adds value to your experience. However, we regret to hear that the waiting time upon your arrival was longer than anticipated. We strive to provide a swift and seamless check-in process, and it seems we fell short on this occasion. Regarding the discomfort caused by the smell in the room, we take such matters seriously, though our stringent cleanliness protocols are designed to ensure a fresh and welcoming environment for all our guests. It is also disappointing to learn of your experience during breakfast and at our restaurant, as our culinary team takes pride in providing high-quality meals and service. We regret that our offerings did not meet your expectations, and we will certainly take your feedback into account. Additionally, the concerns raised about the accuracy of your invoice are being addressed to ensure transparency and correctness in all our guest transactions. On a positive note, we are delighted to know that our barista provided you with excellent service and a friendly encounter, which we hope brought some comfort to your experience. It is also encouraging to hear that our commitment to sustainable development initiatives is noticed, as we continually work towards environmental stewardship. We hope that you will allow us the opportunity of providing you with an improved stay in future. Best regards, Novotel Melbourne South Wharf Team

Room was lovely and clean. Remote control for the tv didnt work and the air conditioning/heating air flow couldnt be changed more than just a temperature. The door signs could have some explanation if the hotel is trying something different than please clean / do not disturb! Overall a great location for that area, lovely amenities but not as good value for money as adjacent hotel
