The Novotel is in such a great part of the city. Close but not too close which we found ideal. Being so close to the river and Southwharf is such a brilliant spot for eateries and bars and shopping of course. The room was so clean and spacious, with a terrific view down the river to the city. The staff were delightful, especially York, who checked us in a little bit early which was very handy, so we didn't have to worry about our bags watching the grand final.
