Good stay
In particular the Nepalese head of the restaurant was delightful - she was so helpful. Our only thoughts were the corridors to the bedrooms seemed very dated not the usual standard for Novotel .

8/10 Very Good

This is still the safest bet in Hamilton for a business hotel. It is not run down in any way. But it does looked dated - a 90s design ethos. My only real complain is the food, which is bland and unsophisticated. They could really do with some excellence in the kitchen.

We loved our stay. We arrived late after a delayed flight and the hotel was easy to find and the staff were very accommodating. Highly recommend.

2 nights in Hamilton
The air-conditioned unit needs some attention, very hard to get it to cool. Pillows could do with an upgrade. In the dining area, listening to an Asian man yelling at his staff was not good. Items also missing from the meals which had to be asked for.
