Good Stay

Kim S. Couples - 02/08/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Just enough excitement for us old folks. Sorry the pandemic forced lobby cocktail bar to close.

A safe haven

Allan Couples - 01/08/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We had a night's escape from the covid restrictions, and really enjoyed feeling so comfortable, safe, and happy. Dinner was different from usual but very enjoyable.

Pleasant stay impacted by Covid

Josina V. Couples - 01/08/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Accomodation was booked in February before the Covid crisis began in Australia. Unfortunately the Club lounge facilities - the reason we chose the Sofitel - were not available during our stay. Our room classification was upgraded and we were given complimentary parking which was very much appreciated. The hotel was on top of their Covid safe practices and the room was very comfortable.

Great stay

Nicole Business - 31/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Really positive. Lovely room. Very quiet and responsive.

Great stay under the current climate

Anthony W. Couples - 31/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

During the COVID-19 period you expect some changes to your normal stays with Sofitel, but we were not let down with service, food, and very well trained staff.

Great location and service.

Sue Couples - 30/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Great location, great service and comfortable stay.

GREAT SERVICE

Anonymous Solo - 30/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

even though recent events have changed the way we enjoy the Sofitel experience ....All the staff were excellent, service was awesome and felt very safe with the covid procedures in place. all in all a very nice experience.

Good stay

Helen B. Families - 29/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Great

Having stayed at in sofitel for over 20 years this was my worst stay.

Peter B. Business - 29/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

As a diamond member,even in these times, I would expect some privileges.All that was given was a small bottle of wine.I requested a room upgrade from standard which I was prepared to pay for but this was not available even although the hotel was occupancy was very low.I had a important business meeting which involved drinks and dinner.There were no facilities and the meal was very average with poor table service which was as a result of inadequate staff numbers.

Short stay

Judy O Business - 29/07/2020 TripAdvisor review

We have stayed at the Sofitel Brisbane on a couple of other occasions. This occasion didn't disappoint. Even in this uncertain time with COVID the service and friendliness of staff was impeccable. The accommodation was up to standard and more. I would always choose this hotel and can't wait until we can go back.

Multiple issues billing ,food service

Melissa T. Couples - 28/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I was overcharged on my account, that was reimbursed then points were incorrectly deducted from my account. Booked dinner and asked for a nice table. Arrived to restaurant with no table set. We were sat at an unset table that they assured us was disinfected but it wasn’t clean. Still sticky from the previous meals and drinks. It was sprayed down in front of us and then cleaned and set. Not the Bris Sofitel standard and not Covid safe. Today I am now chasing up points from the stay. Fully appreciate you are running understaffed but probably won’t be back soon and it’s a hotel I love and always stay at in Bris. So disappointing.

Good stay

Kym Solo - 28/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Well located, hotel staff friendly, meals well presented and delicious.

disappointing service

Tracy S. Couples - 28/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

very disappointed in the service in the restaurant at breakfast and dinner. There was definitely a lack of staff available to maintain the high level of service that we have previously been accustomed to whilst staying at Sofitel Central. Further, I left a pillow in the room and have not been contacted by anyone from the hotel about my property. Also I have not called but I thought a courtesy call would have been appropriate

Fantastic staff, great food, location quite central to all areas.

Mick Couples - 28/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

stayed here to celebrate my anniversary with my partner. Staff went the extra mile to ensure we had a great stay. I was overwhelmed by their efforts in all departments. Thank you all.

Very good last minute booked corporate event

Rachel Business - 27/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Last minute booking. Everything when smoothly, and attendees very happy.

Good with an eerie COVID feel

Rick H. Couples - 27/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

It was good, and always a great standard. The only comment in any sort of bad way was that our welcome drink for 2 was a bottle of Shiraz and as we don’t drink wine we missed the usual option of beer, spirit or coffee, so we didn’t get to use it :( everything else was fine and well managed in these COVID times.

Good Stay

Brett A. Couples - 27/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

All staff were very helpfull starting with check in Guy

First stay after COVID-19...

J C. Business - 26/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Overall, it is an average experience. This is my first time back at this Sofitel Brisbane after COVID. The reception by hotel is not that good in terms of welcome gift, drinks and no welcome card. The staff manners were great and you can tell that they are trying to do the best with the situation they are put in. However, I as a platinum member and choosing to support Sofitel where there are other Accor options (less expensive and newer) in Brisbane, the experience has been average compared to my recent stay at Sofitel Melbourne. Since COVID lockdown and reopen, I have stayed at Melbourne Sofitel and they made you so welcome with arrival email by the duty manager the night before and a physical welcome card & gift upon arrival. Since there were not many guests at Melbourne Sofitel, the duty manager made sure that front staff knew my last name. Particularly during this challenging times, it is important that Sofitel (a 5 star) hotel maintain their standards, perhaps even go beyond the usual to retain valuable Accor platinum/diamond members who like myself support you during this period. Fair to say, if I were to go back Brisbane the next time, I will have to reconsider my usual option at Sofitel Brisbane.

No N. T. B. U. Business - 25/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Professional and welcoming greeting by Stellios ,who explained the various Hotel service restrictions due to COVID 19.Victoria at breakfast handled the challenges posed by COVID 19 whilst still delivering great service as she has during my previos stays at the Hotel.

Lap of Luxury

John G. Couples - 24/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We arrived at the Sofitel early with the intention of leaving our bag and doing some shopping, we were very pleasantly surprised when told our room was ready and we could go up. Our room was great, a junior suite selected for a special occasion. Could not have been happier, plenty of space to spread out and enjoy. We drank and ate in Covid style spacing and loved every minute.
