Its average as hotels go. Small, old, dated bathroom with saloon doors to get into. The shower head was of 80s standard and was defective. Overall all okay, beds are comfortable. Lighting is good and it seems to be a quiet area, close to train station.

The hotel is under construction it has scaffolding all around it and we were not made aware of this. Even worse though is the fact there is construction work opposite the hotel and the loud noise of diggers etc started at 7.30 am on Sunday morning.

Many thanks for your review, sorry to learn that you were disappointed with your stay on this occasion due to the scaffolding over the building, this is to allow essential maintenance works to the roof which perhaps, apart from limiting the light into your bedroom, we have done our utmost not to disturb our guests. Regarding the ongoing city centre roadworks over the past numerous years as the city council make improvements to the flow of traffic. Please be aware that these appear to change daily and whilst the contractors in our immediate vacinity ensure we are kept up to date as much as possible it is not always the case regarding restrictions on certain routes. However, I can confirm that these particular construction works are not allowed to start before 08:00 hours as part of their contract. It is our hope that you may consider Novotel again in the future and can confirm that these scheduled road works in the city will continue until Autumn 2019. Kindest regards, Iain France - General Manager

Forced to leave hotel at 2am and drive over an hour home due to noise, a brick for a bed. Still no refund and were charged a full day of parking. Completely unaaceptable and I wouldnt even force my enemies to sleep there.
