it would have been a perfect 5 but the bed was very very hard. I liked the layout of the room very much. parking is very very pricey. much more than we thought. 20 quid. floors are not carpeting. nice laminate. I liked the decor very much and thought the desk area was very efficient. I would stay again but for the hard bed

"Good Hotel. expensive for what it is"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Nov 25, 2012
Good Hotel is isolated so if u don't hv a car you are stuck however it is only a five pound ride to the train station.

The staff were very helpful. Internet had to be paid for which surprised me. Corridors look very dated however the room was much better thank goodness.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Bargain of the year"
We were really pleased that we had chosen this hotel. It was clean, fully staffed, comfortable and had a lovely pool area. Bargain of the year, I've stayed in hotels costing three times as much that were nowhere near as nice.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Clean and comfortable hotel for everyone!"
Overall I enjoyed my stay with you, I will come again once you fit in ventilators in the bathrooms. I love space and comfort and my room provided alot of this! The hotel is value for money, good location and clean environments. Reception staff are friendly and helpful. The nightmare was with the breakfast, OMG! You need to train your staff allover […] again. What is wrong? They were unable to clear tables and keep the bereakfast going. It wasn't a busy morning at all, only a third of tables and sometimes a half was occupied for breakfast for the whole hour I was in there. The used table were unattended, staff could not clear them and took forever to replace cutlery. They were 3 or 4 staff coming and going out of the room, they were either stuck on one place or moving around doing very little. They can surely do more than what I witnessed, they need the aauugh to push things up! Otherwise, I enjoyed my stay. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"value for money"
Its a bit dated in places, the hairdryer in the pool changing room was broken, also the changing room is tiny for the size of the hotel so when the pool is busy there is no where to get changed, and you have to wait. The breakfast choice was good, but on the first day the coffee and tea was cold and we had to wait for milk etc. disapointing that you […] cannot buy in room films anymore and for children no playstations in rooms. we had to change rooms initially as they gave us a very dark corner room with a tiny window that had absolutely no light, they changed us straight away no quibble though. staff are very professional and friendly :) overall a lovely hotel where you always feel at home.

"Good location, but..."
I thought the hotel was in a good location and only a short distance (cheap taxi ride) to city centre. Everything was good up until I misplaced an item. It was't valuable but for piece of mind I needed to know where I left it. I called the hotel the evening I checked out and the woman at reception at was nice at first, but then was rude and lied when […] I called to check about my misplaced item. She hadn't bothered checking- I realised this because I called the next day and spoke to someone else who was very helpful and found the missing item. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Nice hotel for a stopover break..."
Room nicely equipped and staff very pleasent. Breakfast on the Saturday morning was excellent very attentive staff serving us with coffee and hot chocolate for the kids. Although not so good Sunday morning, must of been understaffed on the Sunday as thing were missing on the buffet and it was help yourself to the coffee. Loved the fact that we could […] check out late as we got to relax around the nice swimming pool. Unfortunately our room carpet had a very damp smell that permeated onto any clothes you left on the floor, we complained and were offered a move of room but didn't have time to pack our stuff away and move on the Saturday. Other than that a pleasent exper Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

Great size rooms with everything you need and fitted to a high standard. The place has a very relaxed calm atmosphere and the front of house staff are very helpful.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Leisure weekend."
We arrived early morning at the hotel and asked the receptionist if we could leave our case with her as we appreciated that arriving early our room wouldn't be ready. Much to our surprise she said that if the room had been prepared we could use it immediatly. She checked for us and we were able to immediatly go to our room.The cleanliness was outstanding […] and the bed very comfortable.Because of this we decided to have breakfast in the hotel. The selection of food was excellent and service received from all staff was superb. No one could have been more helpful. This hotel easily compares with the very best hotels we have stayed at anywhere in Europe. Quite outstanding. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Friendly hotel staff."
Excellent stay for 2 days. Food was good and service in the restaurant was also good. Bedroom was roomy and pleasantly decorated, although the decoration in the separate WC could have done with repairing. We will certainly go back. Staff were excellent.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Comfortable - but appalling breakfast experience"
We stayed with our two young kids whilest visiting Woburn Safari Park. The hotel was fine; rooms were comfortable, desk staff were very friendly and helpful, the pool was small but lovely - and a real plus for the kids. Unfortunately, our stay was ruined by the breakfast. It was an absolute shambles - no management whatsoever. Staff were slowly ambling […] around clearing tables while a queue formed. People were seated ahead of others who had been waiting 10 minutes. Once you were seated the table was eventually cleared, then you had to repeatedly ask for crockery, cutlery, hot drinks. Then food and juices ran out and were not replaced. We eventually complained to reception who were very sympathetic, and blamed the problems on staff illness - yet there were plenty of staff around, and the dinning room was only 3/4 full, there was just no-one with the initiative to get things organised. Such a shame, because the hotel does a lot of things well, but nobody wants to start their day like that. They desparately need to train and motivate their staff. We wouldn't stay there again.

"never again"
Service in the bar and restaurant was appalling. Had to wait about an hour for our food to come. We ordered our drinks but they never came. What kind of service is this? Bathroom and toilet in the room was not very hygienic. The toilet stank like festival toilets. I will never come back to this hotel again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"handy for milton keynes and silverstone"
Stayed thurs -sun nights inclusive for moto gp with my boyfriend. only took 30mins to get to silverstone and 5 mins to get to milton keynes centre which has plenty of shops and entertainment facilities. paid beforehand for breakfast, brilliant selection and plenty of it. pool was handy shame sauna didnt work although we just went in the steam room instead. […] generally very clean, odd bit of dust around and bit of mould in shower but that may have just been an oversight. bed made everyday and tea/coffee etc restocked. quiet at night considering there is a road and petrol station across the road. would stay again.

"MotoGP 2012 2 night stay"
After previous Travel Lodge experiences, this Novotel was a dream weekend stay. Easy to find, quiet room, it was the simple things like large corridors and doors to the room which were wide enough to get yourself & case through made all the difference. Would liked to of had time to relax in the pool area as it looked nice. Nice bar area and good breakfast […] though probably not every morning as it’s a whopping £13 pp. Recommended Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice but pool dissapointing."
Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. However, I chose this hotel over a cheaper hotel due to the pool. Yet when we got to the pool it was being used for classes from 9-4 and as we were going out in the evening we were unable to use the pool. I also found the pictures online to be misleading as the pool looked nothing like the pics with no ja […] cuzzi. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"B&B for mother Pat"
As a hotel for bed and breakfast it could hardly be bettered in terms of staff friendliness and efficiency and the facilities provided. We will certainly stay at the same hotel in Milton Keynes and will look for other Novotels when travelling in the UK.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Location"
We wanted to be close to the Xscape Snow Dome. Although the hotel is nearby and a very short taxi ride away it is not in walking distance. The staff at the hotel were very friendly. The hotel is more of a family hotel. Everything is very clean and the breakfast has a good variety. Would stay here again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Exellent hotel with great facilities"
Good, clean hotel with great facilities at an excellent cost. Kids eat free breakfast was realy useful. Swimming pool with steam room and sauna was good size and clean and tidy. Not in the centre of town, but only a short drive aways from all the main attractions and shops. Would definitely stay here again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Novotel milton Keynes"
We stayed at the Novotel for a long weekend to attend a family gathering. The hotel is clean and comfortable and our room was more than adequate for our needs. The breakfast and the dinner we had in the restaurant we well presented and the service was good too. As we had met up with family we had not seen for a long time the bar area was an excellent […] meeting place, although on our first night I think the night receptionist wished we would go to bed instead of sitting in the lounge area laughing and chatting. The internet is expensive compared to other chain hotels and the half price breakfast if pre booked was a bonus, but overall it is a good value hotel and we will return again with more family for next years gathering!!

"Great affordable stay in detail"
Stayed at this hotel as the cheapest option around on short notice. First night had small issue with bath plug being faulty and was upgraded to executive room, which was a bonus. Felt we had to stay another night because I had the best sleep in ages. Paid extra £25 for dinner and breakfast for two people which was awesome value for money! I would like […] to recommend having the scallopes as a starter with trout as main and cheese platter to top it off. The portions aren't huge but will suffice. Breakfast in bed seemed like a good idea but, may be cold on arrival- maybe enjoy in dining area. Lovely environment for kids Local shops and entertainment awesome.

"Nice Hotel, Excellent Staff"
I found the hotel to be very clean, very quiet, and very comfortable. I especially liked that the executive suite room came with a Nespresso coffee maker because lord knows I needed it the next morning. I haven't a single complaint - because when there was a little thing which went wrong, the staff more than made up for the inconvenience. They cared, […] they were kind, and they wanted to see the guests be happy. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

We stayed at the Novotel Milton Keynes because we were going skiing at the SnoZone. We found the staff really friendly and helpful. The rooms were superb and the beds really comfy. We used the pool, steam room and sauna, although small it was a lovely place to relax and we met quite a few people in the pool who were there to ski at the weekend too!

"Let down by room"
Disappointing for £79 a night for standard room. Felt like a Travelodge room with stark white artex walls, cheap furnishing and modular bathroom. The bathroom had mildew, the shelving was chipped and the separate toilet had wall coverings that were coming away from the wall. Bed was uncomfortable with only two thin pillows on a double bed. Much better […] options in MK for this rate. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Cheap and nicely located for the shopping centre"
Booked this late so the rates were very good, reception was nice looking, as was the room, perfect for one nights stay. Only 3 mins drive from the local shopping centre and restaurants. The only petty comments I have are that the toilet was a little unclean looking, and for breakfast we had to wait for 10-15 plus minutes for a seat, with many couples […] waiting, people started to help themselves to food and then sit in the adjacent bar area. Why the hotel did not open this area in the first place is a mystery. Overall, a very good stay for a weekend shopping trip. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Value for money?"
Not really, thought even the discounted price I got was too high for this 3* hotel, have stayed in better for less. Not really that convenient for a night out in MK for a lady in heels! Too far to walk to the Hub etc., but felt a little silly getting a cab as did not seem far enough for that either, still cost £3.50 though. Rooms pretty basic, in need […] of some tlc. Windows can not be opened more than about an inch (in a first floor room? No free wifi, something I have also got in cheaper hotels. Bar and reception area pleasant enough and staff were very friendly and helpful Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
