Sofitel New York

03/11/2008 Posted by simpleegr8

I really loved the quiet sophistication of this hotel. The location is very convenient to Broadway and TS. The bellhops were on point with taxi and directions. It is a little pricey but the ambiance and details in the rooms more than make up for the extra coins.

I spent the past weekend in NYC and got a great deal on the Sofitel in NYC. The rooms are spotless, beds are comfortable, options are endless. Also, it is right in Times Square so if you're planning on seeing a show and don't want to walk or spend a fortune on a taxi, stay here! I would recommend this to anyone looking for an upscale, restful stay in the city.

Pros: Clean, upscale, restful, amenities

Cons: price if you don't get a deal on Hotwire, Orbitz, etc.

I've had a great stay there - large room & bathroom. The room is very clean and the service is friendly. The best part was the bed - it's very soft and comfortable. There's no wireless internet in the room but you can still go online (internet jack provided). I don't remember there being an ethernet cable though so bring your own. Internet is high speed, not dial up. There's also a great but pricey french restaurant if you're hungry.

Pros: Clean, spacious, friendly service, good location, internet available.

Cons: No wireless internet

This is the first time I've ever felt compelled to write a review - but this hotel was absolutely fantastic. Very friendly, professional, and helpful staff. Everyone from desk clerks, housekeepers, and the concierge were polite and friendly. The rooms and bathrooms are large for NYC, very soft beds and large bathroom with large tub and separate shower complete with fresh orchids and scented candles. The location is great for sight-seeing as well as easy access to the theatre district. We walked just about everywhere we went. I will never stay at another hotel in NYC - this one is perfect!

Pros: Large rooms, terrific bathrooms, elegant ambience, friendly staff, great location

The hotel's location was perfect - two blocks south of times square. On top of that, the hotel was so gorgeous...unbelievable, the marble and foyer were so warm. The staff was brilliantly friendly - the concierge, the front desk, and the bellboys. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone. Most impressive was the room...the bed was the best; seriously the best night sleep I've ever had. Only downside is the price of the bar - the cocktails are quite expensive $13-$16.

Pros: Service, bedroom

Cons: The bar is expensive

We got a great rate on this 4 star hotel and it was terrific. At first we were slated to be on the lower floors due to the great rate but they put us on the 10th floor. Very clean room, large bathroom and quiet. Great little bar. A bit pricey. The staff was very courteous although the conceirge was a bit snooty. High class clientele. Location was perfect. In the theatre district but on a quiet street. The Algonquin is two doors down. Would definitley stay there again

Pros: clean, luxorious

I was taking my boyfriend to NYC for his birthday, his first time, and really wanted to show off NYC. I booked the Sofitel b/c they let me check out at 4pm (b/c I became a Sofitel card holder). I requested champagne in our room to celebrate his bday and they gave it to us compliments of the Hotel. I also requested a high floor with a view of the Chrysler and Empire State Buildings and they really pulled through for me the views were beautiful. The room was quite large, exceptionally so for NYC standards and everyone was friendly. I can't say enough about how pampered and comfortable he felt. Now that I'm a card member, Sofitel is my first choice in hotels!

Pros: Great Location!, Exceptionale Staff, Large Rooms w/views

Among NYC hotels this ranks up there at the top. It is still new and untarnished. Gives the guests a smallish comfy feeling. I like that. Rooms are not that special but they have nice bathrooms. Have Internet but not Wireless. Lousy minibar with those (touch 'em and you pay - but don't worry if you fiddle around just talk to reception and they will fix that). The pople seem to know what hey are doing and are helpful and courteus.

Pros: Still new

Cons: No Wireless, Bad minibar, Bad hotelshop

My wife and I fully enjoyed staying at Sofitel New York. Only five miniutes to Time Square and Two Minutes to Time Squre. We entertained friends at the French restaurant at the hotel. We all agreed it is one of the best French restaurant in the city.

Pros: Good service, Resonable price, Elegance approach

Fantastic location, 5 minutes to time square and 5 mintues to 5th Ave. It is very elegant and has a European touch. As a businessman, I stayed from Wednesday through Saturday in Nov, 2004. I felt so comformable with its location that either for my business contacts or my family gatherings. I strongly recommend that you dine at its French restaurant, one of the best in the city of New York

Pros: Competitive price , Best service, Best location
