Sofitel La Reserva Cardales 5 estrelas

Trying to escape from Gallery One by Hilton experience at US. I have move to the South of America, perhaps not the best qualification for some people, but try to take a look at this place, really superior to past days at "well consider" places, full of dirt and without a human treatment. Here you have the best and the best people, from manager to housekeeping. Sorry at the front are argentine flag and french flag !!

Very disappointed with a hotel that charges 500 USD the night. The beds are awfully soft and left me and my wife with back pain. The big pool is ice cold, even though the city had been in 30+ Celsius for several weeks (I heard from a friend it’s always like this). The facilities in general are worn out and need maintenance ASAP (the pool that has mosaic tiles had an impressive amount of tiles missing). Also, there should be small tables by the lounges in the pool to put stuff or even food or drinks and there is none. The room which is huge had a small tv proportionally to the wall. The stuff is friendly, but there is a lack of training and corporate treatment. They all seem to be doing things differently without a corporate homogeneous, uniform way of acting with guests. The kayak experience is lame, as they only let you paddle for about 150m, because the rest of the lagoon is restricted. There’s a general sense of poor service, I.e. the bathroom near the pool had no soap. And they charge you in USD, and convert it to pesos at their own rate, which ends up being more expensive than anyone can plan. It should be the other way around. Again, very dissatisfied.

Beautiful Sofitel in a wildlife reserve. One night is not enough as there are many attractions to do, kayak, bowling, the spa... hiking and cycling ! Buffet breakfast was excellent. A place to visit if you stay a few days in Buenos Aires, or if you live in Buenos Aires ! Many thanks to Julieta from Reservations and Agustin from the Reception, both really kind and helpful.

The location is increíble to get away from the city and relax. But unfortunately my experience was bad, the food and the attention was poor, From 12 to 6pm I have to had the need to ask PLEASE and repeatedly call to reception to clean my room or at least to bring me towels in order to allow my family and me to take a shower and do the scheduled activities, they just came at 6 pm. And too many other experiences, 2 hours waiting for some french fries, hairs in the food, etc. I understand maybe the hotel was full but my experience was bad, they should need to be prepared and have the resources to cover it as well. It’s a pity, really, the hotel is nice but the people who work there are nor friendly at all with the guests.

Well, I really want to tell what my experience was, because when I want to reserve hotels, really trust the reviews of other travelers. The property is really beautiful. the hotel itself and the gardens look as a 5 star hotel. Even the rooms with a balcony view of the lake make you happy to be there. Then you want to have a shower and ...no amenities, so in the meantime lets hung our clothes, oh no hungers !. Breakfast was a caos, the workers clearly didn't have any experience in serving. They even brought something to the table in a plastic container. Anyway, a lot to improve from the service point of view since the price is a 5 stars hotel.
