A Stellar Experience, Thanks to Exceptional Servic
I recently stayed at Novotel Melbourne Airport, and while my stay was top-notch, I did encounter a bit of a billing hiccup—a double charge that was accidentally made on two separate cards. Initially, it looked like a double transaction, but as it turned out, it was just the bank freezing the amount temporarily. Seven days later, everything cleared up. What made this experience surprisingly enjoyable was Leila Mahyari, the Rooms Division Manager, who took this little glitch under her wing and made it her mission to resolve it. From promptly replying to my emails to actively following up with both accounts and the bank, Leila went above and beyond in her support. She was quick, diligent, and always two steps ahead. Thanks to Leila, I left Melbourne feeling that the Novotel team truly cares about their guests. Novotel, you’ve got a gem in her! To anyone thinking about staying here, rest assured that you’ll be in capable, caring, and (may I add, beautiful!) hands.

Clean and new. Great location next to the airport. Short walk to the terminal which was required after a great breakfast buffet. There was also a shuttle if you don’t want to walk.

Convenient location for the airport and the hotel is beautiful. Restaurants close at 10 and then room service is limited so you will need to use delivery for any after hours meals if you arrive after 10.

Great airport hotel
Fantastic Airport hotel. Hasn’t been open long and it’s got that new vibe. The gym is the best hotel gym I’ve ever seen. Room service prices were a bit expensive but guess that’s expected at a nice hotel now

Beautiful room, very comfy beds, great breakfast, the only downside, staff don’t seem to smile when you say hello, and our lunch and dinner were served cold, cold burger and cold chips, staying again one night next week, so hopefully no cold food

Great hotel close to airport, our room date included a shuttle and breakfast. Arrived from UK at 10pm no shuttle, an hour in the gold with elderly travellers all waiting for a non existent shuttle. Did find later about a ‘Uber/taxi’ strike which prevented it working that night but seemed not to affect any of the other hotel shuttles which zoomed back and forth. That was by email, I never got in the 12 hour flight. Also no pickup from the hotel for half a dozen calls. Then had to get a taxi, $27 for 3 min drive, but did not get a receipt so could not be reimbursed. Finally to check in, confirmed we are all getting breakfast included in the price of the rooms, our friends to room 209, us to 249 Room 249 doesn’t exist !!! So back down to get the right room my husband goes, new room on the 5th floor but me and the luggage are on 2nd floor which can’t be accessed by a 5 th floor card . Anyway, finally get to sleep. Great room, no complaints. Go for breakfast to find neither rooms are on the list. On the last nerve I had, the dining room manager was ever so kind and let us have breakfast, which was also very good. But the stress this whole booking took on our group was extreme. Suggestion, stay by all means, great room and breakfast BUT make sure you arrive within business hours and triple check every part of your booking.

Stayed twice while making connections. Brand new hotel. All good with exception of the first night which had a very dirty floor in the entrance and bathroom. Too tired to take to management but upon leaving a manager requested feedback. (most unusual but effective). Second night a week later all issues were resolved. Very comfortable pillows and mattress. Breakfast was amazing both times.
