We had to change rooms between night one and night two of our booking. We did book the 2 nights separately, but I had left messages with the hotel to make sure we didn’t have to change rooms , but they didn’t read them or respond. We were there for a fancy dress party on Saturday afternoon and other family members were staying at the same hotel, so it made the changing of rooms even more inconvenient because we had costumes we wanted to unpack. Staff were ‘oh yeah sorry’ but there was no effort to offer any type of compensation or free breakfast. It was just ‘oh sorry you’re gonna have to change rooms’. Disappointing, because the location is fantastic.

The Novotel is very well situated. For a fairly new hotel I did find the room looked abit tired and the bathroom was not very clean, with hairs and grime. There was also building maintenance outside our room as they are expanding the hotel. Definitely not great if you are planning a sleep in or want to go out on your balcony as you have a bunch of Trades all staring at you. This would have been good to know at the time of booking. For the price and experience I would not stay here again.

Communication from the hotel wasn’t great. I booked two consecutive nights at the hotel, on two different occasions - originally booked for Saturday night only as we were attending a dress-up 50th birthday party nearby, then booked the Friday night as well, so we could relax on the Saturday and not feel rushed. Despite leaving messages for them prior to arrival, saying we are staying for two nights and can they please put us in the same room for both nights, they obviously didn’t read it and we had to change rooms. No upgrade, no free breakfast or anything just ‘oh sorry’. Really average service, sadly. In addition, woken up early on Saturday morning due to drilling sounds in the walls - they sent us about six messages prior to stay re building work next door, but said it was Mon-Fri only. Partner mentioned it to reception, they said ‘oh, it happens sometimes when they’re behind schedule…’ - maybe add that to your courtesy letter? Not quite the level of service for the price being charged. Rooms are nice enough though and handy location.

The Novotel Geelong is the perfect location. The room was extremely comfortable with a modern bathroom, the staff were very polite & welcoming, happy hour was much appreciated & the water front opportunities were inviting.
