Sofitel Omdömen 31

We stayed for two nights and three days at Sofitel Paris Baltimore Tour Eiffel. The hotel location is great, and our room was decent overall, but there were a few issues.

First of all, for a five-star hotel, you would expect a much better quality mattress. Ours felt very old and worn out, with lots of uneven and bumpy areas, which made it difficult to sleep comfortably at night.

Also, although the hotel seems to have many rooms, the breakfast area was quite small for the number of guests. We often had to wait to get a table, and the breakfast options were rather limited. For example, one morning the cheese platter was completely empty, and we had to wait around 20 minutes for it to be refilled.

Another issue was the hot breakfast service. There was no warm breakfast available at the buffet, so items like omelettes had to be ordered separately. One morning, we ordered a hot breakfast and had to wait around 30 minutes for it to arrive, which felt far too long.

Overall, for a five-star hotel and a brand like Sofitel, it was disappointing to see that the facilities and service did not match the level of quality we expected.

Sofitel lyon Bellecour a annulé ma réservation, prépayée, sans autre explication. Un refus de vente caractéristique aidé par Booking puisque c'est ce site auprès de qui nous avions réglé. Sofitel a une mauvaise réputation et cela ne m'étonne plus, ils se moquent des avis et ne répondent pas : normal ils ne savent pas faire une phrase en français ! Méfiez vous de ce concept hôtelier, et de l'entremetteur booking qui ne sert à rien. Beaucoup de palaces et d'hôtels sympa en France, pas besoin de passer par des voyous.

We had a very nice stay at this hotel also with the help of one of their manager Tom who helped us to find the best solution to spend our vacation in this fantastic resort.

We stayed in the Accor Creekside, Dubai, and experienced poor service. At check-in we were allocated a requested non-smoking room and the room stunk of used smoke. We asked to move rooms and left this with Reception whilst going out. Upon returning at 9pm, Reception said that no alternative rooms were available and that they had called me several times. There were no missed calls on my phone. They clearly had not called me. They offered us to spray air fresher in the room!! We then asked for a refund and to check-out, after which 5 minutes later they had an alternative room for us. Not only where Reception Staff put out and annoyed by all of this, clearly written all over his face, why say there were no alternative rooms to switch to and why say they called us several times to explain. The offer to spray air-fresher was bizarre as it was funny. Extremely poor service from staff, poor smelly rooms and a very limited breakfast choice. This hotel used to be good when it used to be part of the Jumeirah Group. Sorry for the poor review but the experience was awful and the room cost was over AED 1050 (+ GBP 200) a night.

This is for Sofitel in Gatwick London airport: i use this hotel as a stopover quite often, i always have the same problem with them....the heater is not working; i have to call always the reception, then someone needs to come to my room, then that someone, needs to go downstairs and ''turn on'' the heating. this is supposed to be sofitel and they make it so hard to have heating in the winter. horrible.

We booked at the Sofitel Nile Downtown in Cairo, and then had a terrible experience with the management of reception. We cancelled, and stayed elsewhere. Since then I've tried to contact the hotel management to discuss our experience, but that seems to be impossible: they seem to be totally incommunicado.

Lovely! Always great service

We booked expecting a 5-star family stay. Instead we experienced serious safety and service failures:
Electrical hazard: exposed wire in a socket. I was shocked, reported it immediately; maintenance never fixed it. Two days later my wife was shocked too.

Broken glass left near children: a glass broke in the restaurant; staff did not clean it for ~20 minutes despite repeated warnings, until a staff member got injured.

Buggy transport delays: the property layout forces you to wait for a buggy; we often waited ~20 minutes at the entrance with small children.

Car rental arranged via hotel: vehicle supplied had a broken headlight, discovered at night while driving.

Refund not honored: we left early after 4 days; the hotel agreed to refund the unused nights within 2 weeks. It has been 4 weeks and nothing has been refunded.

Sofitel Shad Al Madinah. Wow
Such an amazing and welcoming place to stay. Reception staff Sara is so welcoming and receptive. Together with Zeina they attended to my every query with a smile.Very positive attitude. Facilities was spot on and the proximity to the masjid was great.will be staying again soon.

Cadre très agréable. Petit déjeuner au top.plage privée sur demande.

First they offered different room category with down grade
Second on 18sep 2025 at 9:55 the breakfast most of food was empty and tables were dirty with no staff serving the guest bcs of too much guests (as they said) An excuse worse than the sin

I thought this hotel is one of respectful hotels.
Unfortunately, the are stealing our company money and they have the worst management in Abu Dhabi corniche brand. They requested to provide them with Diesel then they didn’t pay. We will file a court case against them.
We need from them more than 74,000 Dhs.
Management ate hiding themselves and they have no excuses. They block our company nos , and everytime we call them, they claim they have audit ( more than 2 months ). Unprofessional management

I wanted to book a stay, park and fly package at the Heathrow T5 Sofitel, but their website is pretty much impossible to navigate on a phone and not much better on a PC. They seem to have forgotten that the purpose of their website is to allow people to book stays rather than watch videos of the hotel, although based on the other reviews I’m seeing, it looks like this was a lucky escape.

Tout était parfait : l’accueil chaleureux, le confort des chambres, le service impeccable et le cadre élégant. Le personnel est aux petits soins, toujours souriant et professionnel. Le petit-déjeuner est copieux et délicieux, avec des produits de qualité. Une vraie parenthèse de bien-être. Je recommande sans hésiter !

Happy with my stays here in Heathrow London T5. It's highly priced but I couldn't really fault the room and the convenience of being right in the centre of the terminal.

On one occasion they forgot to put drinks in the fridge of the King Room.

The room was a little cold and the heating didn't work, also there aren't many sockets for charging devices.

I booked Sofitel Istanbul Taksim via Booking.com and paid 42,000 TRY at check-in by card. After just one night, I checked out due to horrible smells in the room, a closed and broken pool, torn bathrobes, and endless demands for extra payment — even for basic services.

Hotel management promised a refund of 32,000 TRY, issued a signed confirmation, and told me the money would be sent after the national holiday. It's now been over a week — no money, no reply.

Booking.com ignores the case. The hotel doesn’t respond.
My bank confirmed: no refund attempt has ever been made.

This is not just bad service — this is straight-up theft under the disguise of a luxury brand.

I strongly advise anyone against staying here. If you decide to book, assume that whatever you pay — you’ll never see again.

Shame on Sofitel for allowing this hotel to bear their name.

Wonderful luxury hotel chain - always a pleasure to stay in a Sofitel
