The property is getting a little outdated in some areas it needs to be re-freshened eg: carpet in hallways on each level is showing its time, could paint inside rooms, could do with new curtains and blinds, they also could provide bathroom accessories like toothbrush and toothpaste etc. Overall good stay and will return!

A leisure trip to Wollongong and decided to enjoy life by the beach at the Novotel. So glad we did! The rooms were big, bed is super comfy and the view is one of the best on the east coast. The reception team on check-in and out and they were all great to deal with. Will definitely stay again.
