Modern but not quality.
Minimum emenetis in the room. Shampoo and shawer gel only. Mattress is old and uncomfortable. Paper cap for coffee only 2 paper cops is available. This is not what you expected from 4 stars hotel it's more like 2 stars hotel. The hotel design is modern. and this is the only good thing I can say.

Dear Mr. TZACHI, Thank you for your feedback. It is very important for us, as we are constantly working towards improving our quality of services. We appreciate that you like our modern design. We are fighting towards no single use plastic according to our CSRS policies that is why we provide all extra amenities upon request. Also for this reason and as per Novotel standard we have 2 paper coffee cups, but we could always provide extra upon request. We are sorry that you did not like our mattress , despite the fact that we are considered as one of the best hotels in town.Operations Manager

difficult to park. design of the room is not for kids or families. for some reason they decided that transparent glass to the bathroom to the beds is a good idea. well try using it in the night. no brains who ever design it.

Close and convenient to airport when you have an early flight. Also it is next to the mall and close to places to eat. Front desk was helpful with covid test info. Did not like the breakfast set up - saw people dropping the serving utensils and placed them back on the counter. There were gloves available but nobody inforcing the use of gloves. We were just a couple of minutes early for breakfast and staff was not happy.
