"Novotel is a phenomenal hotel, and I truly enjoyed my stay for a higher-end experience. I booked an executive king room with Sky Lounge access. The room was very spacious, with a comfortable king bed and a generously sized bathroom. A nice touch was the two pitchers of water—one chilled in the fridge and one at room temperature—so there was no need to buy water. The amenities were excellent. The breakfast buffet (6:00–10:00 AM) offered a huge selection of Filipino favorites and some American options. On the 6th floor, there’s a gym, two large pools (main and kids’), and an outdoor bar where food and drinks are delivered poolside and open until 2:00 AM. There’s also a mini playground and kids’ drop-off area. The ground floor has a restaurant, bar, and gelato shop. The Sky Lounge on the 24th floor was a standout. While pricier, it’s worth it—unlimited non-alcoholic drinks and snacks, a mini buffet after 5 PM, complimentary alcohol during happy hour (5–8 PM), great workspace, and beautiful views. The hotel felt very secure, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout. The location is walkable with malls, restaurants, transit, and entertainment nearby, though the area is fast-paced due to being a transit hub—hence 4 stars for location. Overall, Novotel delivered an excellent stay, and I’d gladly return."

"Great staff and room"

"My stay for 3 nights was a very enjoyable experience! Amenities and breakfast and staff are all excellent! The only little problem I noticed was how the wash lavatory area was constructed, everytime I washed or used the faucet, I couldn’t avoid splashing some water around, but this was not big deal anyway!"

"This hotel is in a great location the staff are very helpful "
