Why it's worth checking out
Novotel Melbourne South Wharf sits on Convention Centre Place at South Wharf, by the Yarra River near the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre. Part of the well-known Novotel brand, it offers comfortable, contemporary accommodation along with quality facilities in a prime riverside location, the kind of reliable, well-located stay that suits both business and leisure travellers.
The appeal is that combination of comfortable, well-appointed rooms, good facilities and an excellent South Wharf location, close to the convention centre, the DFO shopping, the river and the city. For a well-located, full-service stay with the reliability of a trusted brand, it's a popular and well-regarded choice, particularly for events and conferences.
With a 4.4 rating from more than 2,100 reviews, it's clearly delivering for its guests. Room types, rates, dining, facilities and availability vary with the season and demand, and a well-located hotel books out around major events and peak periods, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly ahead — particularly if you're travelling at a busy time, around a conference, or want a specific room type for your stay.
