Spent 5 nights at the Novotel in January 2008. The hotel is clean and comfortable, though it helps to be tall to climb in and out of the shower/tub. Other than that, no complaints. The restaurant is open late and serves good food all day. The location is good, but not much within walking distance. Cabs are cheap and always available. My son is in university in Monterrey, so we will visit often, and I will most likely return to Novotel.

Stayed here one night with my husband in a king non-smoking room that was clean and minimalist. The bed was very unconfortable (without box spring). The staff was friendly, the restaurant served very good breakfast.

The hotel shares the underground parking with the Ibis Hotel. It is located in probably one of Monterrey's main avenues (many car dealers around) A lot of traffic, but fortunatly we heard no noises at night (8th floor).

We did not use the pool, but the area looked nice. There is an Italian restaurant (Italianisimo) near by which was very good.

Our stay was only one night for business and since we did not knew the area we choose the hotel because it was very close to where we were going and the price was reasonable. But now that we've seen what is around, we will probably stay at the Presidente Intercontinental next time because is only a few blocks away and the beds are probably better.
