Sofitel Wellington is a realatively small hotel compared to other Sofitel brand hotels. The room is small, most of the room has no bathtubs. Hotel is near parliament house and Wellington station, easy to come from airport. Recived nice macaroons in a small sofitel leather bag on arrival, it is a special welcome gift. Room has view of Bolton street cemetry, if you are not happy to see cemetry outside your window, please take attention before booking. I had breakfast included in the booking, and had dinner in the jardin grill restaurant. I had 4 issues in the restaurant, realated to poor service and hygiene: 1. ordered ice latte and sent me hot latte, a small issue. They sent me a iced latter afterwards after I voiced it out. 2. Had fruits from buffet, honeydew melon got bad already before I took it. I got 4 pieces of green color honeydew melon and they all turned bad, tasting sour and not fresh. Pineapple appeared fresh but watermelon also looked like not fresh. I informed waitresss of the bad fruits and she took the whole bowl back to kitchen, came back with some fresh melon and informed me the whole bowl of fruits was bad. They apologized for that. After 1 hour of finishing breakfast, I had diarrhoea in my hotel room. 3. Had dinner in the fine dining restaurant, ordered 6 oysters but served me 5. I asked waitress how many did I ordered, she said yes it was 6, she would go back to talk to the chef. Then later bring me another 1 oyster. 4. I also ordered scallop as my entree, they served us main meals and it still did not come. I understand entree should come earlier than main meals. I asked the waitress is the scallop coming, she said it would come soon. When they served me scallops, waitress told me it was not ordered before. My husband heard me clearly that I ordered scallops as well. After these disappointing dining services, I went to front desk and complained. Duty manager said they would waive my fees at the restaurant for today, however, I have 100USD dining credit covering my meals. So he gave me 65.7NZD discount for my room fees. My conclusion is I will not choose hotel at Sofitel again in Wellington. Why not ibis or Novotel if you do not expect services.
