NOVOTEL Geelong has shaken up its offering for the holiday season, launching a Pop-Up Summer Bar with support of famous French distillery Grey Goose.
Located on the first floor in the Limeburners Room, the full bar has a selection of cocktails made with Grey Goose vodka, and features sun lounges and seating on the outside balcony with excellent views of the Geelong Waterfront.

“I think with this location, Grey Goose as a principal partner bringing things together and our team, it’ll be great.
“On the weekend, it’s a place to come to in Geelong – a little bit sophisticated, a little bit upmarket, with some nice cocktails and some nice beers.
