Nicely designed hotel like part of CC airport
Part of CC airport - my viewpoint, excellent room with nice & surprising interior design e.g. sanitary area wall - can be slid to open and close, fridge and safety box seem like part of the drawer. We had a heavy storm/wind in the afternoon but fought our way to Splitfire to get our dinner :). 2 minutes covered walking path to the airport building - superb for those flying off early in the morning.

Extremely convenient and comfortable
Less than a minutes walk from the arrivals hall and managed to check in at 11am - much needed after a long flight. The restaurant was excellent and seemed to attract people from the city as well so probably best to book it when you arrive

Large, well designed comfortable room with good bed and shower. We’ve stayed at a number of Novotels and this was the best. It’s right next to the airport so the location is perfect for travel. Breakfast was excellent too.
