Freeway side was noisy with traffic. Waiting for lift down on departure for half an hour is not acceptable. Many guests resorted to stairs. Bedding a bit light and cooling was too cool. Took a long time to warm up.

"I stayed at Novotel South Wharf recently and had a really good experience. The location is spot on — right next to the Convention Centre and DFO, so it was super easy to get around. My room was clean, modern, and comfortable, with a nice view of the city. The staff were welcoming and helpful which made check-in and check-out smooth. Breakfast had plenty of options, though it did get a bit busy at times. The only downside was the parking, which felt a bit pricey. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would happily come back again."

Very close to 'The Plenary' and was great for an overnight stay. Lots of dining options are close by, but hotel can be limited. Parking was next to the hotel but separate to it. There are busy times with this facility sometimes full. The night we were booked into the hotel there were only 50 spots left! Beds were comfortable, rooms clean with great views of the city and the bay.
