Very disappointed with Novotel
We stayed overnight and were very disappointed. The flush kept leaking the entire night and was absolutely annoying. The shower gel and shampoo containers were empty. And room service could not provide any food after 10pm!

Could have been great
Lovely hotel Very comfortable. Nice bar area and restaurant. Restaurant menu for evening meal wasn’t set for children so not very good there. We had a family room and it was to hot as air conditioning has been turned off. We spoke to other people and they all said they didn’t have air conditioning. Very nice hotel but when you don’t get a good sleep because it’s to hot it really let it down, 8 of us traveled and we all felt like we couldn’t sleep just because the air conditioning wasn’t working. Big let down.

Very pleasant stay. I've stayed for 1 night as a family of 4. We have ordered some food for room service and that tasted amazing! Staff very polite, very informative, speaking good english. Very nice design of the hotel. Breakfast was a little bit disapoiting, very basic choices of food.

Change of Booking Requirement
Generally a very good stay but going out we had booked for Bed Breakfast and Dinner. On arrival we were told the restaurant was closed and we could not have a dinner. we paid only for Bed and breakfast and were given complimentary room upgrade and drinks.However a bit disappointing we were not told in advance that no dinner was available

Perfect location for a stopover between Biarritz and Cologne. Unfortunately bar and restaurant were closed because of COVID-19. Most likely we and our friends will use it again for the next trip.

Value for money is grood. Conveniently located. Facilities are fine too. Food at the restaurant is average, though the staff was very nice. The hostess at reception was not very pleasant, our key didn't work at first, when i told her she could not help herself but to take me for an idiot that does not know how to use a key card, instead of admitting her mistake. Also, being the first person to welcome guests at this hotel, i think that a smile would not be too much asking. Anyhow I would recommend this hotel for a short stay.

A reception person that is as polite as a "Jail door" while registering or stuff passing by you and ignoring without a saying good morning - plus breakfast serving people having private long conversations on their cellular phone while serving ... this is not what I consider good service I found it all very unprofessional and impolite

Good quality hotel
A well maintained hotel with modern facilities and excellent helpful staff. Room well decorated though poorly lit. A great outdoor swimming pool. Good food in the restaraunt but so busy that staff were overwhelmed and meals were delivered out of sequence by people with little grasp of English.

Basic hotel, but just what we needed
The hotel was very nice, with excellent facilities. Our couple ofcriticisms were that the mini-fridge wasn't working, which we only discovered after the food we had put in there had gone off; also that the cleaners were a little overzealous, and took away various items that were our own things that we had brought (toiletries and glasses).

Flea Bites
We have stayed at this hotel 3 years running now as an overnight stop on our way to and from the Mid Pyrenees, and we have always had a enjoyable stay, HOWEVER On our arrival at the hotel on Sat 25th August, we were allocated room 234, and on entering the room I noticed that there were long black head hair on both the duvet cover and in the bathroom floor, also when going to bed that night we noted that there wasn't a mattress protector on the mattress, just a sheet, of which I was quite shocked, as there has always been a mattress protector on our previous stays, through the night I appeared to have been bitten by a flea or similar whilst sleeping, thet were not a mozzie bites, and since arriving back in the U.K. I have been advised they were definitely a flea bites:( I'm so gutted :(

Paid for the hotel in advance. When we arrived, they expected us to pay 100euro deposit in case we had meals at the restaurant. Bearing in mind it was a 1 night stay over 600 miles away from home. To this day we still haven't had our £100 euros back into our bank which should have never been taken anyway. Absolutely disgusting

Nice hotel but poor management.
We only stayed for one night, thank goodness! Checking in was simple enough and the room was nice and clean, the bathroom not so, and it is not obvious how get the shower to work. We reserved a table in the restaurant, when we arrived we shown to our table and left there for 30mins, no one took our drinks order so we went to the bar to order drinks only to asked to go and sit back down and wait to be served. 15 mins later someone came to take our order. We ordered our food and drinks, the food came ridiculously quick which made us think it was actually meant for someone else! When leaving the restaurant we wanted to put the bill on our room which confused the staff and took far longer than it should. On checking out we charged again for the room despite the room already being paid for through expedia. This was their mistake which in their defence they spotted but they then told me that they were not able to refund the room! So I now have to take it up with the their complaints department.

Lovely, clean and modern hotel with friendly, helpful staff. We stayed for one night on the way back from Spain and it was perfect for our needs. Not much within walking distance with regards to shops, restaurants or nightlife but for one night the hotel had everything we required on site.

Not good service (from the restaurant staff)
Unfortunately we ordered a fillet mignon and we were served pork?! Figure that!! The lady running the front desk sorted and deducted the price, but it doesn’t help when you want to eat and now its to late to order again! We ordered room service in the morning for a apple juice and a orange juice which took over 35 minutes to come. When I said all was fine we were ready for leaving the man who brought the drinks in a very aggressive manner told us we need to speak nicer and be nicer even though he was the one late. If you don’t want something as a customer then that’s on the customer and I do not need to be told to be happy!! Very poor

Good for a night stop
A pleasant Novotel that appears to have been recently renovated to a good standard, but without much attention to detail - see photograph of kettle and hand basin. How would you get water into the kettle?? I suppose it saves on teabags! The room was comfortable although the heating kept reverting to a low temperature (and this was in the recent cold spell). Once reset, it worked well for an hour or two. The shower was in need of maintenance, having a "drooping" head that couldn't be tightened. The restaurant provided good food, but the service was slow. There was a team of three serving, but the leader spent most of his time at his computer, leaving the two ladies to do most of the work. All the staff were pleasant and friendly, and I would use this hotel again
