Service was below average

joetawfik 08/07/2020 TripAdvisor review

We had about 3 instances where we had to wait for 40 mins to get served. One of those times was to get changed to another room because the air conditioning was malfunctioning. There was not enough staff on a busy weekend.

Great stay but breakfast was an absolute let down

Mra Z 24/06/2020 TripAdvisor review

We had a good stay in general - the room was spacious, the view was great, the check-in experience was wonderful with a complimentary late check out offered. However, the breakfast experience was such a let down and all over the place. Staff do not seem to have been trained properly to serve guests, and it took us around 1.5 hours waiting for food to be served and even then my friend never got what he ordered. We wasted a good chunk of the morning just waiting for a simple breakfast to be served. Staff were not attentive at all.

Amazing Service and Location

ajlk12 16/06/2020 TripAdvisor review

There wouldn't be a better place to stay in Darling Harbour. The food and service is second to none. the rooms are huge with heaps of space and functionality. The beds are super comfy and with a pillow menu a great night sleep is definitely on the menu. Will stay again!

matthew624 10/06/2020 TripAdvisor review

Absolutely fantastic. We loved the stay and thank you very much for the room upgrade which made our stay even more special. We couldn't recommend it anymore!! We stayed in 3108 and the views were to die for, again, what an absolute treat to get upgraded to this room. The service was amazing and despite the large amount of security due to the Covid-19 in the foyer, even they made us feel really welcome. The meals were great and honestly, it was such an awesome place to say. The ONLY gripe we have is that it took us approx 90mins to get our breakfast served in our room on the Sunday morning, other then that WOW - we will be back and cannot wait. Thanks again for your hospitality, Mr and Mrs Kruijer

Bonjour Mr and Mrs Kruijer, It was a pleasure to recently accommodate you both for your special occasion, congratulations on your milestone! I'm thrilled to read of your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback on TripAdvisor. Sorry to read of the delay you endured on your breakfast order, we have since implemented measures to ensure this does not happen again. Thank you again for your kind review, the Ambassadors and I look forward to welcoming you back. Kind Regards, Greg Brady

Not the same

Tinajay15 10/06/2020 TripAdvisor review

thanks covid for nothing. This must be the 4th time we have stayed here and it was probably our worst stay. First things first however. Checkin was positive. Wasn't too long and even though we were early, we were able to check in to our room. Down hill from there really. Tried to book in for dinner before 2pm to find both sittings of Max 50 people already booked out. Had to have room service. Get to that in a minute. We were in a club milleseme room which gave us afternoon tea which wasn't too bad but had to wait an 1hr 15mins and 3 phone calls before it was delivered to the room because the club was closed ( thanks covid) then canapes at 6pm (gin and tonics x2) were very nice but the canapes small amount and so so. So I ordered salt and peppered squid from room service-$19 for 6 pieces and no chips. Wow. Luckily filled up on the g and t s. The one thing I did love was our room overlooking darling harbour. Wow. Amazing. Especially at night. I spent half the night awake just staring outside looking at the lights. Couldn't get enough of them. Bed wasn't very comfortable either. Shower was fantastic. What made it a wonderful overnight stop was sharing it with my mum who this time last year, I didn't think she would be here with me being able to enjoy spending quality time with each other.

Bonjour Tinajay15, It was a pleasure to welcome you and your mum back to the Hotel recently and I appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback on TripAdvisor. I'm sorry to read that your stay did not meet your expectations set by previous stays and would like to offer my sincere apologies. As you have mentioned, we have had to adapt our outlets and offerings to be compliant with government Covid19 regulations. I am pleased to advise that we we will be re-opening Club Millesime from this weekend for guests that book rooms with Club access. I hope that we have an opportunity to welcome you and your mother back for another visit again soon. Kind Regards, Greg Brady

Arrived late at night 11pm after our wedding Thank you for the sparkling and choc great addition and thank you for the city view Amazing hotel, amazing location The only negative if have to mention one was room took a while to cool down Check in agent was great - offered immediate late checkout on arrival due to us arriving at 11pm - this was just great - as after working in hotel myself I hate free handouts and to be a bother - but this was great the agent thought of this before we asked due to the time we arrived.

Unusual circumstances but had an amazing stay

Michaela Couples - 30/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I booked the hotel with club access for my partners birthday but unfortunately due to the current situation and lockdowns the club and hotel bars were not accessible. The hotel did everything they could to still make our experience great by delivering the items I’d paid for to our room and by their amazing customer service. Everyone was so friendly, incredibly professional and helpful. The room was beautiful with the bathtub and the view of the Anzac Bridge. We felt very special and it was a luxurious experience. I hope we can come back again one day.

The best hotel

Gary T. Business - 30/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

It came at a time when the coronavirus was impacting the whole world. It was sad to see so few people being able to enjoy this wonderful facility. We enjoyed a great meal in the restaurant and the usual fantastic breakfast albeit being very quiet

I love staying here, it’s always a treat and every aspect is enjoyable!

Gabby Friends - 30/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I stayed here for two nights last week. Even though we have all the issues with things being closed due to the corona virus, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Room service was great, and the guest services were amazing, every need was met. We stayed on a nice floor high up, and the room was so clean and perfect, thank you!

Great overnight stay

John W. Couples - 30/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We needed to spend one night in Sydney and elected to stay at the Sofitel - based on previous experience. The accommodation was great, the location was very central and access to transport (light rail) is right across the road. As well as that we had a great breakfast which was at 50% off through my Accor membership.

Cosy, peaceful and luxurious

Melissa Couples - 30/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Prior to check-in, sent online shopping gift over to surprise my spouse and the concierge team gladly helped to put it in our room. It was well-coordinated and the team was responsive! We wanted to take baby bump pictures by the pool and the PR and Comms Manager, Inna was happy to help us out too! Eloise at check-in dropped by to pass us a lovely set of bubble bath amenities, chocolates and a cute kangaroo stuffed toy along with it! Thank you for the lovely stay!

We have stayed at the Sofitel Darling Harbour before and have had the privilege of enjoying the Club, the excellent wines, tasty chef-prepared snacks and superb ambience. On this occasion we had a small problem with our booking and we are grateful for the way that Yvonne at Club reception was willing and able to help us.
