A last minute decision to stay in there city for my husband’s birthday. We really liked the Novotel South Wharf. Easy access to DFO and great restaurants closer by. Not too far to walk to Crown or Southbank. The hotel was quiet and the room was clean and the bed comfy. Views were wonderful too. We will definitely stay again.
