Lovely New Year stay

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

kwagmeister TripAdvisor review

My husband and I arrived early in the morning from a 17 hour flight to this nice property. Check in was quick and we have learned over the years that if you are flying overnight it is well worth booking your room or suite from that night prior. When you arrive your room will have been turned down and you can then arrive to a rest and shower before beginning your vacation. So that is what we again did and we were very happy to arrive to our junior suite overlooking the harbor - ready with no delay. We also had the club floor included and that view is beautiful - and the daily food and beverage presentations were just right for us. The offerings in the morning were more than plenty and we also enjoyed the evening cocktail hour and hors d’oeuvres. This is a busy hotel and as we stayed over the New Year holiday it was very busy. We never felt rushed and service was professional and very attentive. The hotel is very well situated just steps from the harbor walk and offers beautiful views as well as proximity. It was not as close to the shopping we enjoyed or the opera house but those areas were still easy to reach. This hotel is a nice choice and for our first ever visit to Sydney was a great one.

More Holiday Inn Express than Sofitel.

Jocelyn P TripAdvisor review

We booked an upgraded corner room and were very disappointed with the view we got of some cranes and a building under construction. We had been travelling from Canada (24 hours on 2 flights and 16 hours of time change) so we did not have the strength to go back to the front desk and demand another room but we truly felt scammed as the room had nothing to do with the pictures on the website This tainted our whole experience and this by far the worst Sofitel hotel we have stayed at. The pool area was also very crowed with no loungers available and a lot of kids running around yelling and just being kids. We were supposed to come back here in a couple of weeks, needless to say we have cancelled our reservation and will stay somewhere else.

Bonjour Jocelyn P, Thank you for reviewing your stay and for sharing your feedback. We appreciate your business and apologize for the inconveniences. Regards, Robert Gauer Hotel Manager

Amazing stay over new year. Would have been 10 out of 10 but disappointing check out experience. We left 6pm and even if we had booked late checkout would have got chucked out at 4pm without option for shower/change/pool access. Even worse we had to pay for WiFi access to confirm transfer details.

Bonjour Ms. O., Thank you for your kind words regarding your stay. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed our location and accommodations. I apologize for any inconvenience you experienced with the late check-out policy and WiFi charges. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we will take it into consideration for future improvements.
