Despite being right in the heart of the city, the hotel seemed to be in a quieter corner. Very easy to get there and get around on foot, on Metro, by a taxi. The room was first right with plenty of outlets and a lot of nice amenities.

We wanted to have breakfast or brunch as advertised on Sunday first day of our stay. We arrived at 11:05 am at the restaurant and were turned away despite all signs and information pointed to 11:30 am being when breakfast was finished. Most importantly the breakfast staff were not civil. We mentioned this to the reception received a very courteous apology acknowledging the miscommunication in hotel publications and information and were told we could have complimentary breakfast and drinks. We did have breakfast the next day as well as drinks but the complimentary somehow disappeared as we paid for them upon checking out. This was a 3 night stay for a business - pleasure combination. Please be accurate in your communications deliver on your promises and train your breakfast staff to be civil. The hotel facilities are excellent the location perfect and the staff in all other functions except for breakfast incredible.
Bonjour Triant,
On behalf of Sofitel Washington DC, I personally apologize to you for the inconvenience caused. I am extremely sorry to learn that we fell short of expectations, and there fore I have issued a refund of $30.84 back to your method of payment. It should appear within 5 business days.
I am thankful that your review is overall positive and a true reflection on your standards. If I can be of further assistance, I remain at your service.
Merci,
AJ

The hotel lacks any security at the front or the elevators. No doorman to control who comes in and out of the hotel. Furthermore, no key needed to access floors where rooms are.
Anyone can walk in and access the floor you are staying. i will not stay at this sofitel again.
Be careful.
Thank you for sharing your valuable feedback regarding your recent stay. We take guest safety seriously and appreciate your concerns about security measures within the hotel. While we strive to maintain a welcoming environment, your comments have been taken into consideration as we continuously evaluate our policies and procedures. We regret that your experience did not meet your expectations and hope you will reconsider us in the future.

Room was spacious, clean, classy. Front desk was very helpful. Gym was clean but small, not sure there is much that can done about that. Perhaps a second bench would be a plus.
Thank you sincerely for your positive feedback regarding your stay. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the spacious and clean accommodations, as well as the assistance from our front desk team. Your suggestion about the gym facilities has been noted for future consideration. We hope you visit us again!

Upon checking in, I was charged $200 more than my reservation and the hotel has been unresponsive. I have twice emailed the reservation address listed on the booking confirmation. Further, a family member visited the hotel during my stay to request she be charged instead. So, we may have both been charged for the same room and stay. The hotel hasn't refunded any portion of the charge and will not respond. It's strange that I keep getting email requests to complete this survey, but sure, Sofitel. Here's your survey.
Thank you so much for sharing your concerns regarding the billing issues you experienced during your stay. I sincerely apologize for the confusion surrounding your charges and for the lack of timely responses to your inquiries. We strive to provide clear communication and support to all our guests, and it is disappointing to learn that we fell short in your case.
Please be assured that your feedback is valuable, and I will make sure to address these matters with the appropriate team. We appreciate your patience as we work towards resolving the situation.
Thank you again for your feedback.
Sincerely,

The hotel is in a great location. Walkable to anywhere in DC and many restaurants. There is not much room at the hotel to just hang out other than the restaurants which would have been nice to have instead of sitting in the room when we had a little down time. The staff was excellent and valet service was phenomenal.
Thank you for your kind words regarding our prime location and the excellent service you experienced during your stay. We appreciate your feedback about the communal space; while we strive to provide a comfortable atmosphere, we understand the desire for more lounging areas. Your compliments about our staff and valet service will be shared with the team, as they truly aim to enhance each guest's visit.
Thank you once again, and we hope to welcome you back in the future.
Sincerely,

I had issues with the AC during a very hot stay in DC and the mattress was a little lumpy. Otherwise, enjoyed my stay!
