Novotel South Wharf- Next to South Wharf DFO

Stayed on the top floor with a magnificent view of the Yarra River on both the city side and looking out at the West Gate Bridge. The hotel is extremely clean, staff were very polite and courteous and the buffet breakfast will not disappoint. We found the bedding super comfortable and got an excellent night’s rest. We are returning customers and will continue to return.
