We stayed at Novotel Palm Cove for 3 nights for a wedding. The event was well organised, the facilities excellent and the service pleasant and efficient. The grounds were well maintained and with plenty of room to spread out.

A nice hotel and facilities but we would not stay at this again unless they fixed the air conditioning to enable individual rooms to adjust the temperature. The rooms were very cold and when reported the response was to leave the sliding doors open as this would automatically turn the air conditioning off. Being on the ground floor this was... More

Palm Cove is a great place to stay and the Novotel is well located although a bit difficult to find if you are driving. The rooms are spacious but rather noisy if you are on the ground floor. We had a tour group arrive late at night and were woken by suitcases being wheeled along the walkway. The staff were... More

Booked in four days early here because of out early exit from Novotel Twin Waters because of noise. Totally different here with a nice A la Carte restaurant and not many screaming children, possibly because they don't come to fine dining because of the price. Beautiful pools and location for a relaxed stay. Reception were extremely helpful with touring advice.... More

We just finished an 8 night stay in a superior suite at the Novotel Palm Cove. Overall I was a little dissapointed as usually the Novotel's standards are very high.

Check in and check out was great. Hotel in great location short walk to beach / shops and a great pool / water slide for kids. Staff very welcoming & friendly. Ordering room service on first night was a disaster. With hungry young children 2+ hours later and following up 3 times finally arrived. Subsequently we never had room service... More

This Novotel property is definitely showing its age and is in need of a makeover. Rooms are tired and the general feel of the property is dated. This could also be that we were spoilt after staying at the Sea temple in port Douglas, however I still think a makeover is much needed. Didn't try the restaurant as there are... More
