Prestigious hotel with a wonderful location and best hosts ever. Thats what made my +45 stays and guaranteed more to come. The concierge, the welcoming Arabic coffee & dates, the Oud scents and the front desk are making a splendid beginning of the journey. The best ever “Front Desk Champions” acts on behalf of the management pleasing guests going beyond expectations. Verity of cuisines makes endless choices which meets all tastes not forgetting the room service efforts during the day. Quietly, housekeeping is rooming several times a day between the rooms making sure to fulfill guests needs even before requesting. You’ll feel everyone’s commitment to make it a non-forgettable experience. Special thanks & appreciation to Mr. Izzat, Mr. Talanka, Ms. Maria, Ms. Zainab, Mr. Mousa, Ms. Arwa, Mr. Bulbul, Ms. Navleeta. And for sure to Mr. Hanayen and Mrs. Fadwa for maintaining such a prestigious palace.

Third time at Sofitel! Feels like home!!

Room was nice but the room view of the ocean and sounds was worth the price. Food was not as good for the price at all. Seemed low budget for the price associated with a five star price we paid.

Great property - disappointing service

Customer review rating 2.5/5

Booked here to celebrate my wife's birthday, as it was an important birthday. All started out well - check in was excellent and the room was prepared with rose petals. We were even given complimentary cake. Then the service went awry - over 60 minutes wait for 'room service', not what would usually be expected for a Club experience in a hotel of this quality. This was made worse by the delivered order being wrong. Breakfast the following morning was a farce - canteen-style in a restaurant that was far too small for the amount of guests taking breakfast, turines not replenished, no glasses for fruit juice, tables not available and staff who were, generally, dis-interested. The service was so poor that we decided not to eat in the hotel that evening and visited a nearby restaurant instead. On our final evening, we waited over 90 minutes, following three separate calls to Reception, for our room service order. We were visited the following morning by the Catering Manager and Head Chef who, whilst very apologetic, could do little to rectify the situation as we were due to check out a few hours later.

If you include a message in your booking with Accor, no one will read it. The executive lounge does not serve water in a small bottle, instead a glass of water is offered. I arrived at the hotel at 1:30pm and the room key was given to me at 3:30pm.

we enjoyed to feel as if we were no longer in Bahrain. only issue we had was the price felt as if it were elevated due to the Eid holiday, the Beach area is Nasty/very dirty and the consumables (drinks, sodas, foods,snacks) were extremely OVERPRICED. 8.4BHD for 3 Pepsi cans!?!?!?! ridiculous.

Need to improve on room services as no one picks up calls for more than 30 mins. Reach out to reception and the result is negative. Showers do not work and even after repeated follow-ups no one turns up to fix it.

Fadwa Solo - Confirmed reviews ALL

It’s my second stay. I like the atmosphere. However this time I came at Ramadan and I wanted to have my ftoor in my room. The room service does include any type of food traditionally served for this month. Which I find it somehow strange cause I have stayed in hotels in Ramadan in Europe ( France and Switzerland) and they managed to prepare special meals including (dates) when I asked for it. I hope this remark will be taken into consideration. Also, the shower need fixing cause the water is coming from both ( the head and wall showers) . The chair was broken and the master room lights were not working properly. There should be a periodic room maintenance in-order to avoid these inconveniences. Thanks

A beautiful property but below the average staff

Customer review rating 3.0/5

Ali Y. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

I recently stayed with my family at the property for 2 nights. The property is beautiful and very relaxing. The only negative point was the check in and check out. My flight arrived in Manama a bit early and I called the hotel for an early check in, but they just refused it in a very cold way. Same was the case at checkout, when they didn't seem apologetic and just told me that the hotel is full and can't give me a late checkout. I do understand that early Check in and late check out are completely dependent on hotel's occupancy, but the way they refused was pretty appalling even though I'm an accor member. The biggest surprise was at the checkout when I wasn't even asked a single question by the receptionist regarding my 2 nights stay. I'm a Marriott bonvoy platinum member and let me tell you that they are very accommodating and understanding regarding early check- ins and late checkouts. I got the room in ritz carton 4 hours earlier than my check-in time today after my checkout from sofitel Zallaq.
