Novotel Wollongong Northbeach reviews
5 Star Review by Matt Pease
Faultless stay for a few nights Stayed for a couple of nights for work I cannot fault anything with this place. I requested a room.move to a higher floor and was accommodated by the reception staff who were excellent throughout the stay. The room was very good and all facilities in it were in good working order. The shower had great pressure and the bed and pillows were comfortable so.made for a good stay. Had breakfast in the restaurant both mornings and there was good variety and quality of food. Would definitely stay here again, location is awesome and if you get a beach view room the view can be fantastic.
5 Star Review by GG C
We stayed in an ocean view room. And it was worth it! The view of the water was so peaceful and seeing the sun rise as I woke up is just perfection. I love the beach, so being within close proximity was a major plus on location. Otherwise, it's a 17min walk to the town centre for shops and major eatery chains. We were super lucky that we had 5 cockatoos come for a visit by the closed and sealed window. The only downside was this time of year is a bit cold, so didn't make use of the pool, which was a tad small. And the spare sofa bed looked horribly soft and uncomfortable but we didn't need to use it anyway so that's fine. The bar area is very nice and super spacious. There are a number of cafes within 2min walk next door and they were great for brekkie. Overall, service was attentive. Cleaners and shop staff within the hotel were super friendly. Would definitely come back again!

Excellent stay and accommodating for families, as my three old daughter had a blast.. Wonderful views of the ocean. The rooms were absolutely immaculate from the beds to shower to the foyer, everything was very clean. The breakfast buffet was a treat. Also very welcoming and friendly staff particularly in the restaurant. Highly recommended
5 Star Review by Rod Donaghey
My wife and I spent a couple of days here and we were very impressed with the service we received. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was fantastic and the views were amazing. Lots to do within walking distance of the hotel too. Great food and cafes. We'll definitely be returning.
2 Star Review by Jessica Vicary
Positives: Beautiful new renovations to their bar/pool area. Amazing wine list. Parking was reasonable and you can drive in and out with plate recognition. Had a lovely afternoon meal and a glass of wine in the bar. Dinner in the restaurant was nice. My room was very clean and the hotel overall is very clean. Negatives: $522 for a night, no mini bar (they have a small shop they call a pantry that sells wine and snacks near the lobby), shampoo, conditioner and body wash for 1 person in the room, anything extra had to be called for at reception. The air conditioning was ancient and the room was so hot I couldnt sleep. At breakfast, the buffet was very poor. They had no scrambled eggs so I asked the chef how I could get an omelette and she said you have to order with wait staff who were nowhere to be seen. No cutlery on the table. Had to pay extra for a coffee that wasnt from a machine. Im pretty sure they used Kraft singles for the cheese in my omelette. Most of the staff I encountered during my stay were so lovely but this hotel was NOT was I was expecting for $500+ per night for a standard room with no view, no toiletries and no mini bar. We stay in Sydney regularly and pay around the same for one night BUT the level of service and presentation is far higher than this. I wouldnt be writing this review if I didnt pay so much for the room. Wont be staying here again.
2 Star Review by DJ Keysie
Paid $470 for one night in the ocean room just to be kept awake all night by the ridiculously loud music from Pepes on the beach. The whole venue in general all the restaurants and bars were ridiculously loud all day and night and could not get any peace and quiet. Parking is a nightmare and is $25 per night which wasn't mentioned on the website, only 2 disabled parking spots in the underground carpark which were taken by people without permits. I don't think I will be staying here again to be honest it isn't worth the hassle
