Richard B. Couples - 8/18/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

I do not want this review published, but would like to provide feedback. We had a wonderful stay. The room was lovely and comfortable. The staff was friendly and professional. The location was fantastic. On our last morning, we ate breakfast at the hotel, and then started our long drive home to NY. A few hours into the trip, we were both hit with stomach cramps. We had to quickly find a bathroom, and spent the next hour or so with diarrhea. I don't know if this was related to our breakfast, but thought I should pass this information along, just in case there was a food safety issue.

Hello from DC! Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback regarding your recent visit to Sofitel Washington DC. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay, particularly the comfort of your room, the professionalism of our staff, and our prime location. We sincerely appreciate your concern regarding your experience after breakfast. We take food safety very seriously and adhere to strict standards to ensure the well-being of our guests. Your feedback is invaluable and will be shared with our culinary team for review. Should you have any further concerns or require additional assistance, please feel free to reach out to me directly. I am so sorry that you were both not feeling well and hope you are feeling much better now. Thank you once again for your thoughtful comments, and we hope to welcome you back in the future. Best regards, Karla Erales Sofitel Washington DC Lafayette Square

Cory M. Families - 8/17/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

We loved our stay at Sofitel Washington DC. The hotel was very comfortable and clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. What really did us in was the restaurant. We were told it was amazing by staff and that we should eat there and would receive a discount since we were staying at the hotel. The food was not very good. For the cost the portions were very tiny. The service was extremely slow and it was very hard to get any ones help. My autistic daughter did not like the pasta, I don't blame her, I tried it and it was horrible. We asked for chicken strips instead. They finally came once everyone had finished and were ready to leave. My poor girl was starving the whole time. But the worst part was the food poisoning my entire family got the next day. It really put a damper on our trip. Also the fact we paid over 100$ just to have to spend the entire day in the bathroom and buying medicine to try and make it through the rest of the week. So yes to the hotel. Absolutely NO to the restaurant .

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience at Sofitel Washington DC Lafayette Square. I am pleased to hear that you found our hotel comfortable and our staff friendly and helpful. However, I sincerely regret to learn about your disappointing experience with our restaurant. Your feedback regarding the quality of food and service is taken seriously, and I apologize for any inconvenience caused during your dining experience. It is disheartening to hear that your family faced such challenges, particularly with your daughter's meal. I understand how important it is for every guest to enjoy their dining experience fully. Moreover, I am truly sorry to hear about the health issues you encountered following your visit. The well-being of our guests is paramount, and I appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention. Please know that your comments have been shared with the appropriate teams to ensure immediate follow up. I hope you and your family are feeling well and had a safe trip home. Thank you for your kind words about the hotel itself. We value your feedback and hope to welcome you back in the future for a more enjoyable stay. Warm regards, Karla Erales Sofitel Washington DC Lafayette Square
