Sofitel Grand Sopot

Unique and classical hotel with great location and staff! We’ve spent there a perfect weekend and will definitely come back. Restaurant with discrete and professional service. High quality breakfast although coffee could better;) Highly recommend rooms with sea view and balcony...

It was worse than 3-4 yrs ago. The gate was open from sea side entrance so anyone could walk in and destroy the quality of the hotel. People were walking in and taking photos next to fountain, shouting and yelling their names etc while I was having lunch or dinner outside. This is not right and ridiculous. They were NOT guest of the hotel ! Too many families with children in the hotel. Hotel lost prestige. Carpets on the corridors were damaged I almost had a fall. The menu was also not that great like few years ago. Generally there was NO value for the price. More people complained about open gate and that anyone could walk into hotel premises etc. I paid to have peaceful holidays not to be disturb by people from outside the hotel taking photos etc. You have to bring prestige to this hotel pls as it was years ago. Thank You. Best wishes.

Excellent hotel with history, great breakfast, super friendly staff. Location is the best in Sopot. Really pet friendly hotel. Superior room with a sea view could be a little bit spacious but it is fine when a weather is OK. I highly recommend Sofitel Grand Sopot.

Overall an average experience. We had planned to spend more time at the hotel during our five-nights stay but then decided against it because it simply was not up to the standards we expected. Plus: the hotel has a great location, just by the beach. The private beach area is well-attended and clean. We liked the historic ambience, even though the hotel doesn't draw on it. Staff was generally friendly if somewhat disinterested. The spa area is small and ok if there are not too many people. Some of it appeared to have been renovated recently. Negative: the hotel feels dated, with tired furnishings, worn carpets and a somewhat gloomy atmosphere. Our room (310) was a corner room with an excellent view of the sea. However, the furniture looked as if it came from a mid-range hotel designed in the 1990s and was arranged in a non-sensical way that spoiled the room's location. For instance, the bed was in a dark corner, facing the wall with some cheap IKEA-esque art, rather than facing the window -- it would have been perfect to wake up with a view of the beach. At the end of the bed, and blocking the other window, was a sideboard with a big TV that had to be navigated when getting around the bed. Again, the furniture was worn and chipped in places - its design may have been just ok for a five-star hotel 20 years ago, when the furniture was new, but not now. The bathroom was big but again designed not with the guest in mind. There was no shower but a bathtub with a glass division that was too narrow -- when showering, the bathroom would often flood. The design (a garish yellow black tile arrangement) was dated. There were also moldy spots. Generally, the room did not feel clean - when we arrived, it was clear that it had not been cleaned properly -- there were cup rings and grime on the nightstands and the desk. When I complained to reception, I did not receive an apology. The cleaners who were sent up to fix the issue, were obviously not happy that we had complained and did only a quick clean-up. Generally, there was no interest in us as customers/guests. Reception staff was generally friendly but did not seem interested. When we checked out, I was asked whether we had liked our stay. When I said that it was just ok, I did not receive any further question. We used the in-house breakfast only once -- at 20 Euros/person it was overpriced. The coffee was really good but the buffet only middling. The a la carte food we ordered was just ok but did not compare favorably to any of the other restaurants we then explored. Overall: While we loved the location, the hotel was only average and certainly not up to the standards we have come to expect from other five-star hotels. We would not return unless there has been some major renovation. This should also include fixing the cluttered reception area and the design of the bar. The hotel has great potential that is simply not realized. Compare with other hotels from the same period that have been fixed up and truly are a Grand Hotel. Finally, the whole back of the hotel is practically a parking lot -- so not quite the "parkside" that is advertised.

Double room, no breakfast + Perfect location by the beach and in the city center but still quiet + Great beach club with nice sunbeds and umbrellas + Very nice room with well working wifi and free water - No signs of ecoligical awarness - The gym was a mess
