We recently started using this hotel and the feedback has been favourable. This is my first time in this hotel.
In usual Novotel fashion, the entrance is grand and inviting, giving the impression of better to come. Peel off the surface and it's the same as every other Novotel around the world.
The rooms: I think Mr Novotel must have got a "job lot" of beds from somewhere, because they are as hard as the ones in all his other Novotels! If you don't sleep well on a hard bed, then don't stay here!! The room facilities: It's nice to have tea/coffee in the rooms, the other amenities are the same. Cleanliness was OK.
Internet: Luckily for me we get internet included in our contract, it is fast and reliable. Not sure what they charge normally, but I do disagree with over-priced internet!
Breakfast. Average. Very very busy with semi-attentive staff, they are constantly on the go so have little time for "customer service"!!
Location wise it is excellent. AED15 (£2) in a taxi to the Dubai Mall where you will find everything from designer to basic and plenty of restaurants. The Gold souk is a bit further AED 30 (£5) but always worth a visit if you want good prices and like bartering!
Personally I wouldn't stay here through choice, but it is OK for a short visit.
