Novotel Milton Keynes

Pleasant hotel, great breakfast, perfect location for the Snow Dome! Went to an amazing Turkish restaurant 10 minutes away for dinner. Fab family stay for a little over-nighter.

Nice big room. Liked the bath. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was well cooked and tasty when I was able to get some. Free parking was a bonus. WiFi worked well.

Breakfast was good. A good variety of choice and my kids loved the pancake machine. The kids corner was nice touch. Checking In and out I dealt with one of your members of staff I didn’t get her name but she was very lovely and friendly. She gave my kids a toy and an activity pack, which was amazing and came in handy for our 6 hour drive back home. The rooms were a good size and enjoyed our stay. The pool was a good temperature for the kids and had lots of fun in the pool during our stay.

The hotel is situated around many shops and the main train station which was a bonus for me; even though that's the case, there wasn't any noise from traffic etc We checked into the hotel in the late afternoon and the person dealing with our check in, was absolutely lovely and helpful. The room itself was pleasantly presented and served us well. The casting from the phone to the TV didn't work, which was a shame as I've previously stated in another Novotel in a different location and the facility did work. Also, there was no fridge in the room as this was a feature in another Novotel I've stayed in at another location. Aside from that, we had the basic things needed in the room and we had a comfortable sleep. We did go for breakfast in the morning, which was decent. The breakfast staff and other F&B members were not amiable whatsoever, which was a shame. I didn't find the breakfast staff helpful nor approachable at all. Nevertheless, we ate and filled our stomachs so that we could proceed with our long day ahead. The purpose of our trip was to go to indoor skydiving, courtesy of Ifly Milton Keynes and onto Gulliver's Land, which we enjoyed thoroughly. I initially booked the hotel for two nights and I am glad that I did because we had access to the swimming facilities onsite, which was the highlight for me and my children. We booked a late night slot, which meant that there were not many guests in the pool so we literally had the pool to ourselves for our fulfilment. The male night manager is definitely an asset to Novotel as he was fantastic and assisted me with my queries. The night manager even showed me around the gym and swimming facilities even though it was shut at that point and I really appreciated that; he definitely went over and beyond to accommodate me, which didn't go unnoticed. Thank you Oga!

Great hotel. Lovely and accommodating for our anniversary with a surprise in our room. Kids sofa bed is two separate single beds which was amazing for my two kids that like their own space. Great breakfast, although a bit on the expensive side. Pool is small but pleasant enough for a quick dip with a small sauna. Meant to be max 15 people at a time but there was 20 at one point which should be looked into. The separate toilet from the bathroom is fantastic! Overall a great stay. Thank you!
