It was amazing I particularly liked the french black male who checked us in he made us feel so comfortable and welcomed he was very polite and helpful and deserves a promotion. The only downside was the fire alarm in the morning so I wouldn’t recommend going on a Monday. Apart from that it was a blast

The Hotel is in a very good location. Short walk to Southbank and stones throw from the Jubilee Line. The facilities at the hotel are great, we loved the pool! We couldn't fault the staff. They were so accommodating, and made our children feel so welcome. Breakfast was delightful too! Whenever we are in London, we make a point of staying here.

Louise P. Families - 13/12/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

A lovely family break in a well- located hotel. The welcome from the reception staff was good, especially for the children who loved the jelly beans! Room very pleasant. Nice view of Shard. Enough space for 4 and good sized bathroom. Very impressed that the swimming pool was open and we were able to use it twice in our 1 night stay. Only slight criticism was the time it took to get served at breakfast. It felt like the poor chef was a little overwhelmed, whilst the waiting staff could have been a more attentive. Nonetheless, given the restrictions of covid which the hotel was working within, it was a really nice break and a good interruption in difficult times.

Dear Louise P., We very much appreciate your comments regarding your stay at the Novotel London Blackfriars. I was delighted to read that you had a lovely Family break in our hotel, and you were able to relax during this special times. Your recognition is the best reward for our hotel and we are most grateful for your recommendation. Regarding the breakfast, I do apologies for the quality of the services provided during your visit, I will advised the food and Beverage manager, to look into it for a future improvement. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope your next visit will be as pleasant as the previous one, with more Jelly beans :) Sincerely, Traore Babaye - Guest Services Manager.

The hotel was pleasant and clean and i felt Covid safe whilst there. We did have a problem with a sink that would not drain and i reported it in the morning on check out.
