Amazing place to stay for business or leisure

NPX007 Business - 05/07/2020 TripAdvisor review

It's everything you expect in a luxury 5 star hotel. I had an amazing room up on the 11th floor overlooking the city and gardens, had an amazing sleep and ate some of the best food I've had in a long time at the hotel restaurant Jardin. The Japanese A5 Wagyu was amazing, as was the Kangaroo. Definitely staying there next time and I'll probably book a suite.

Bonjour NPX007, Greetings from Sofitel Wellington! Thank you for taking the time to share the experience of your recent stay with us. I am delighted to learn you had a wonderful stay with us, and that you enjoyed your dining experience at Jardin Grill. I will be sure to share your feedback with our entire team of Heartists who will be delighted to learn of your wonderful experience. We truly hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the nearest future, Kindest regards, Hemant Chawla Guest Experience Manager Sofitel Wellington

Debbie P. Couples - 04/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I have stayed there many time and this time was just not great No mini bar no milk, said my pillow was firm it certainly was not even close, shower and sink had mould, room was noisy outside Call room service 4 times rang out to even get a coffee, breakfast was basic in fact all the menu has not gone back to normal which if that’s the case the price should have been adjusted and it was not Overall shame it is one of my favourite places to stay and it certainly was below average

Bonjour Debbie, Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Sofitel Wellington. I am sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. At Sofitel Wellington, we strive to provide a superior service experience for every guest; and in this case we clearly failed to do so, and for this I offer my sincerest apologies. I have shared your feedback with our Housekeeping Manager who has conducted a deep clean of the room, and initiated further training with the Housekeeping team to avoid any future occurrence. I have also shared your experience with our Food and Beverage team for further review as the experience you had is certainly far from the level we strive to be, and this matter will be addressed immediately by our team. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your feedback as we strive to continuously improve our product and services. It is our hope that you will give us the opportunity to better serve you in the near future. Sincerely, Hemant Chawla Guest Experience Manager Sofitel Wellington

We have just moved to stay at the Sofitel following the temporary closure of the Grand Mercure and we have been welcomed as if we were family and we seriously can't fault anything about the Sofitel - they are another very special Accor Group hotel which we love being a part of.

Glennys Couples - 30/06/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Friendly team especially Amelie, but disappointed that we had to unload our car on to the trolley and enter the hotel before our arrival was acknowledged. Jardin Grill steaks were to die for, the best we have had in the world and Chef very friendly. Only problem was the battery in our room entry failed and took a couple of tries to resolve but obviously not something encountered every day.
