TL;DR
Take bus #4 from your hotel and tell the driver 'Novamall' — they'll stop at the right place. Alternatively, go to Side bus station and transfer to a bus marked 'Novamoll'. Pay in Turkish lira for a cheaper fare.
From your hotel, exit through reception and find bus #4 stop on the left. Tell the driver 'Novamall' and they'll drop you off at the right spot. Walk about 20 meters in the direction the bus was heading, turn right, and walk straight for about 20 minutes to a large road with an overpass. Cross it, head slightly right, and you'll see Novamall.
Another option: take a bus to Side bus station (look for 'Side otogar' on the bus), then transfer to a bus marked 'Novamoll' which goes directly to the mall. Pay in Turkish lira on the bus — it's cheaper than paying in foreign currency. You can exchange money with a hotel guide or at local shops that give change in lira.
If traveling from Mersin by intercity bus, note that it stops on the highway, not at Novamall itself. Plan your onward connection in advance — it's too far to walk, so take a taxi or local bus from the highway stop.
