Very nice hotel

Customer review rating 4.7/5

Mr P. Business - 13/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I was delighted to receive a room upgrade, a very nice touch. The hotel itself was very grand (as the name implies) and the staff all very nice. On the negative side I think the food options during the day in the brasserie/bar were very limited and the hotel bar itself was small with a limited drinks selection. With such a large hotel it would be nice to have a large bar with good small food options. Somewhere to relax and have a bottle of wine and something to eat. There were also frequent knocks at the room door from maintenance and people checking if everything is OK, a little frustrating to be woken up!

I stay 20-25 nights a year in Amsterdam it was my first night back at the Sofitel in years, spent a fortune in the restaurant, great room / décor, but ruined by noise and location basically at street level

Well located, staff and service were excellent

Lisa S. Friends - 12/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We had to stay at short notice due to our flight being cancelled, the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating they extended our room free of charge as our next flight was late at night. I will definitely stay here next time I visit Amsterdam.

It is always a pleasure to receive positive feedback. I will share your comments with our team. Thank you too for signing up to ALL -Accor's wonderful loyalty program.

Super staff but bring a flashlight

Customer review rating 4.7/5

Lafayette Couples - 10/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We love the Sofitel in Amsterdam. The staff was super friendly and everyone made us feel they were truly glad we were there. We'll definitely stay there again when we return next year. Our only complaint is our suite was so dimly lit that it was virtually impossible to read in the room. We understand most people use their i-everything these days but for the few old-fashioned print readers the lighting in the room was simply inadequate. To see what's in the closet, one needs to open the closet door wide for the floor lamp to shine in!

Dear Mrs G., It is very kind of you to provide us with your feedback following your most recent stay with us. It is most satisfying to read that you had a fantastic stay with us. We have made a note in your guest profile here concerning your preference for a shiny room, and we shall certainly aim to deliver one upon your next stay at Sofitel Legend The Grand. Otherwise we would like to thank you for signing up to ALL -Accor's wonderful loyalty program. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope your next visit will be as pleasant as the previous one. Sincerely, Emmy Stoel General Manager

N. Families - 10/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

It was not bad..but I couldn't feel caring service.. I asked for changing the linen, but they didn't do that. I didn't claim about that because I was so tired on that day and it was my last day in there. I've been to other sofitel hotels in other country and I think it was the worst.. I was little bit disappointed.

Dear Ms N. , Firstly, thank you for taking the time to provide us with your precious feedback. We regret to read that your stay did not live up to your expectations. Certainly, the issues you mention do not reflect our usual practices.We are investigating the matter regarding your bed sheets and the speed of connection in order to ensure other do not experience what you did. At Sofitel Legend The Grand, we make it our mission to provide our guests with unique, memorable experiences, and it seems we fell short in your case. We do hope still to make this up to you and we will be contacting you via the e-mail address we have on file for you. Again, please allow me to express my profuse apologies and thank you for writing to us. Sincerely, Emmy Stoel General Manager
