Short Break
Everything seemed fine until we decided to have a drink in the bar are on the last night. That’s when Ratatouille decided to appear and run under the window on the carpet. I noticed at breakfast there were bait boxes on the dining area so obviously there is a rodent problem

Exceeded my expectations.
I had an absolutely faultless two-night stay in this hotel, and cannot thank enough the hotel staff who made it so. A perfect location too, with a train station stop right outside. You know exactly what you'll get with the Novotel brand, and it didn't disappoint.

Regretfully there was no restaurant - only a snack bar - in the hotel, whereas the information on Google Maps said there should be one. If that had been the case I would have given this hotel the maximum rating.

Overall good hotel
Modern hotel in a good location if you don’t mind using the ubahn. Entrance to the ubahn station is only steps away- but it’s an extra cost to consider. Breakfast was great and parking is right under the hotel for 19€ per day. Staff were very friendly. Complaints would be the street noise was insane if you cracked your window. Our room was inexplicably hot so we wanted fresh air- but it was definitely noisy. Room was clean but small and no coffee in the room. Overall it was a good hotel, but not great.

non friendly welcome, price/quality is ok.
We arrived late at night and the man at reception spoke the bare minimum to us, no welcome, no explanation of wifi/breakfast - bluntly asked for my credit card for deposit/hold without saying how much it was (240euro!). The room was a decent size, beds were very soft, almost too much so, there was a big silverfish bug in our bath when we arrived. Location of the hotel was quite nice, there is a metro entrance outside. Free wifi is limited - then you need to pay for additional data. I think the price/quality was ok.
