A last minute decision to stay in there city for my husband’s birthday. We really liked the Novotel South Wharf. Easy access to DFO and great restaurants closer by. Not too far to walk to Crown or Southbank. The hotel was quiet and the room was clean and the bed comfy. Views were wonderful too. We will definitely stay again.

Property was amazing! However Novotel does not have separate parking, therefore you have to park in the common area of DFO Sough Wharf. You can get discounted for the night $50 if by chance you left to go anyway like myself you are paying each time. My stay added on $120 in just parking alone! For that price plus the hotel I could have gotten a hotel that has private free parking. Very disappointed we had no other option.

We had such a good time with DFO across the road and being within walkable distance to awesome cafes and eateries. George the Concierge was the star of the show with his attention to detail in what we were looking for in food and entertainment. He was an absolute gentleman. We will definitely be back to the Novotel for our next Mummy/Daddy get away!!
