Location was in the city centre, short walk to the shops - across the road from the water - lots of places to eat. Nice area and easy to get to. Room was spacious with good showers / bathroom / TV
The best was x 2 beds joined together and you could feel the lump in the middle, it was very obviously. The pillows had minimal filling in them, you needed 2 and even then it wasn't comfortable. Bed was the ONLY issue.

Location along the esplanade, restaurant on site and a lot of other restaurant choices nearby, easy access to Westfield, affordable valet parking
The pool was a bit cool and could do with some renovation

We loved how central it is especially to dinner at Fisherman’s Pier. The room was very clean and a good size. Very comfortable.
Unfortunately breakfast is only a fixed cost for full breakfast, $38 from memory. We did not want a huge breakfast and happy to pay a la carte but not possible so we went elsewhere.

The car parking facilities are very poor. The only option is valet parking for $40 per night and it took 40 minutes for the valet to bring our car to us

Great location
The room wasn’t exactly clean. The bench top had stains and the toilet wasn’t very clean.
The hall ways look very outdated and need a decent upgrade and spruce up. They were also not very clean.

I had a wonderful one-night stay at this hotel. The hotel's location was perfect, offering stunning views of the surrounding area. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. The room was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, providing a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. I also enjoyed the delicious dining options close to the hotel and the suggestion of activities from the check in staff. Overall, my experience was fantastic, and I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Geelong.

Room was good and clean we didn't spend much time in it so size was ok. bed comfortable and shower good.
Parking was not good and expensive for a 24 hour period if you used it. Parking down the street in 3 hour zone is unacceptable.
The thing that we were VERY disappointed in was the fact that there were 2 flag poles out the front of the building
one flag was the Novatel flag and the other was the aboriginal flag. NO AUSTRALIAN FLAG!!!!!!!
So there should be 3 flag poles in our opinion or remove the Novatel Flag or the ABORIGINAL flag - the ABORIGINEES are AUSTRALIANS TOO - or are they a different identity all together - or are we all Aboriginal and entitled to the same rights. This needs to be fixed for us to consider staying again.

They have not grasped the concept of valet parking.

Nothing - property was very tired looking. shower floors were not properly cleaned. Room smelt of cigarette smoke, so I had to change rooms. Guests were rudely awakened at around 8am by extremely loud drilling noise coming from the lobby. No guests were prewarned! Noise was so excruciating & unrelenting guests particularly with children started checking out. We felt for reception staff who had to work in that noise.

The location is great, opposite the beach and close to food outlets.
Walking distance to most Geelong attractions like the National Wool Museum and Art Gallery.
Valet parking is expensive but there are not many other options nearby.

We had a wonderful time at Novotel Geelong celebrating a special birthday. The room was comfortable, light and attractive with a view of Eastern Beach.. We enjoyed the facilities of the hotel very much as the weather was cold and rainy over the time we were there. We had pleasant drinks in the bar and a beautiful breakfast on our second.day.The staff were friendly and accommodating. The manager, John, was very friendly and went out of his way to ensure guests had a personal experience. This made our stay a memorable experience.
The Eastern Beach area is lovely place to visit.
