Perfectly city centre situated

Hotel could do with a bit of TLC but it is situated perfectly for city centre. Great walking distance for points of interest, pubs, restaurants and Bramhall Lane.

Most people give five stars reviews because they don't want to offend. Mine was genuine. I loved the hotel and the location. The staff were excellent, and the bar and restaurants were superb. I would be more than happy to stay there again.

Convenient location. However, the air conditioner kept blowing cold air on a chilly day, and when I called the front desk, I was told there was no way to adjust the temperature or turn it off.

Nice stay, great location

Great location in the heart of the city, we were attending a concert at Bramhall Lane which was about a 20 minute walk away. Attempted to park at hotel however no spaces left. Not a problem, parked at Furnival Gate NCP 5 mins walk up the road (and turned out to be £10 cheaper too so will use again in future). Helpful and polite staff, lovely hot shower but the hotel and rooms were just too hot. Did try turning room temp down using in room thermostat but it was already at lowest temp so has to sleep with window all night which meant we heard a lot of road noise. Didn't spoil the stay but a fan in the room would have been helpful. We paid £75 for 1 night in a standard Queen room on hotels.com, on the way out I noticed a tariff board showing £199 standard room rate if booked direct. In my opinion, I would not pay that to stay here but I guess in peak season (Christmas etc.) and given its location to city centre, Crucible, theatre etc. some people would find that reasonable. Overall, would stay again but not even try hotel car park at £18pn when NCP is half the price, didnt have breakfast at hotel as Wetherspoons 5 minute walk away and much cheaper and will have to bring a fan!

The Novotel in Sheffield was ideally located in the centre of the city, reasonably priced and certainly quiet. The room was comfortable and well maintained. I hadn't realized quite how convenient it would be until I stayed there. The breakfast was also delicious and relaxing. Thank you for a lovely stay and see you next year.

Adequate but not as expected

Firstly, the service in the hotel was excellent. Pleasant, always smiling and very approachable. Unfortunately, a couple of issues in the room were not quite what I would usually expect from a Novotel hotel. The sealant around the shower screen in the bathroom was mouldy and required renewing. The door between the entrance and the bedroom was dented. The TV remote completed all functions apart from being able to change the volume, which was a little annoying. Overall, it was just a little disappointing.
