Great hotel, comfy beds!
Beautiful hotel with great staff. I was welcomed and enjoyed one of the best beds I've slept in! Common areas and my room were very clean. Staff was kind and responsive. The lobby bar is beautiful and welcoming. I will certainly return, as I have stayed at other hotels nearby, but Sofitel was truly great.

We originally were booked at a hotel across the street and it was horrible. They gave me our money back I walked across the street.
The concierge and everyone was great. The hotel was clean, beautifully decorated and the room was spacious. Thank you Sofitel!!!

Fabulous
Such a beautiful hotel with so many amenities. Room service breakfast was fabulous. Love the designer toiletries and the bath. Down comforter, fluffy robes and mini bar make this stay so luxurious. Check in process does take a while because staff seem to be trained to go over all the amenities in detail and there are so many. Everyone was so helpful and friendly.

Wonderful Stay
Our stay began with a marvelous doorman greeting us - his name started with a J- possibly Jameel. The hotel lobby and bar area were beautifully appointed and checkin was a breeze. Our suite was lovely although bathroom lighting is lacking. Drinks at the downstairs bar were very good and overall the staff were very friendly. We’ve stayed here before and will be back.

Bad food service
Food service very bad. I had 2 meals and experience 2 mistakes. Valet very expensive and it takes 25 minutes to get the car.
Breakfast did not have chocolate although is in the menu, so if you don’t drink coffee or tea the is no option mainly when you have kids. I did not left service at the restaurant as the service was not good but they added 10$ without asking… I caught it at the check out.
