You must urgently improve your booking website its too complicated and your central phone bookings. The phone bookings is the worst I have ever tried to use. I called twice on a weekend I thought it was a robot. I could not be heard or understood I would not have stayed with you unless my husband battled to book on line after many attempts. We had a great stay; The Sofitel staff were warm friendly and helpful. I think the staff are getting a little board with the signing because of Covit 19 at the Dining room and Champaign Bar level 3 they could do with rotation of duty. Room service for breakfast was lovely. The Bar fridge in our room (2708) needs checking as it’s not cold. It was our Anniversary it was lovely to be spoilt. Please thank the young man that signed us in he provided us with a lovely room and he was delightful.

Great Stay

Staff were professional and very careful about COVID-19. I felt safe and secure. Well located. The only thing that I would have liked is when I went to enquire about my missing earring and it was not found, the staff member should have taken my details in the event that my earring was found at a later date. This is disappointing as the earring was very special to me. I also thought the valet parking of $84.00 was excessive.

Platinum member, multiple stay repeat guests. Hotel service was amazing and prompt as usual. Room was excellent and well kept. Our experience at Atelier was average and I have addressed this in another similar email survey. We understand that many experiences have changed due to COVID although we were disappointed to see the Champagne Bar closed on all but a Fri & Sat night. As Sydney’s premier hotel one would think it would be open outside of these days, even if only for limited hours. The same goes for breakfast, surely there is a way to allow guests to enjoy breakfast somewhere without having room service as the only option? I understand it’s also about staffing and costs, which I appreciate however if you can do it on the weekend, it’s obvious it can be done. Some of these services need to be extended if you wish to remain in the top spot in Sydney. We were also disappointed to see the Pool area closed on Monday (30c day) without prior notice, which wasn’t helped by a sign at the pool entry advising it was closed, but the dates it noted were all historic. Overall we enjoyed our stay as usual and we’re glad to be able to enjoy the hotel again.

Close to everything, great stay.

We had a two night stay to celebrate a birthday. We were originally staying with Mecure Sydney but they transferred us to the Sofitel in a very smooth process. Staff were great and helpful - Covid19 has caused some changes to the bar and the restaurant process but we were still able to manage around it.

Excellent Stay, Treated magnificently

Stayed here for our wedding anniversary in September 2020 and received a complimentary upgrade which was a nice surprise. The room was superb! Had pre-dinner drinks & canapes at the Club Lounge which had great views of Darling Harbour. The champange was absolutely delicious, apparently they only serve it at the Sydney & Paris hotels. Had breakfast at the lounge the next day & afternoon tea in our room. The food was very nice. In my opinion, what made they stay the most enjoyable were the lovely staff who were very attentive and lots of fun to chat too.

Very enjoyable, very relaxing

Jim Couples - 22/09/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Overall experience was great - however I'd like to raise two points - no welcome gift for being a GOLD Accor loyalty member; and - no free upgrade offered for being a GOLD Accor loyalty member - even though the hotel offered a week prior a stand-by upgrade at a cost.

Did not get what we paid for and made to feel like we were asking too much all the time. The club was offered for only 2 days when we stayed for a full week. Fell well short of our expectation. This was a very special occasion for us very very disappointed.

Beautiful hotel

Jennifer Couples - 21/09/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We had an overnight stay in the corner suite (thanks for the upgrade!) amazing views and beautiful room - one drawback is you can hear the people next door and the door closing. Minor flaw only! The restaurant is beautiful we got to have dinner and breakfast there and we could use our accor discount. The Covid safe protocols are impressive and you can see the staff wearing masks and cleaning tables. Too bad we couldn’t use the pool as it was raining but we will be back with the kids to enjoy it. All staff were wonderful especially the front entrance staff.

The staff are making the of these Covid times, but it was very disappointing not to be able to experience either restaurants or cocktail bars. After getting home a 2nd charge $7.61 for a mini bar charge. First, we never use the mini bars anywhere we either use the cocktail bar or go out. Second, we were not asked at time of checking out if we used the mini bar. I have asked the Sofitel for a refund and explanation? I look forward with interest to their response.
