Reviews
Fortunately the shower was hot and the bed very comfortable.
This place needs a great deal of money spent on it to make this 5*.
The plastic sheeting as a wind protection in La Plage needs to go and bifold doors or patio doors or see through roller blinds,as many people thought it to be old and tired. This actually spoilt any view.
I'm afraid I wouldn't return as it doesn't compare to other 5* hotels I've stayed in.
All the other guests, as well as myself couldn't understand the silly green bed surrounds. They prevent you getting into bed as they move. They need to go and replaced with bedside tables. That would help the appearance of the bedrooms as nobody likes them.
All the other guests that I spoke to said they were upset at the lack of interesting entertainment. The lack of a dance floor. Nobody wanted a disco. Many guests said they felt the photos advertised showed the resort in the best possible light.
The swimming pool is a joke. Three people in there is too many.
The staff, the bed, the shower, the scenery , and the food were a saving grace. I think if this wasn't the case you would have had a number of complaints.
I have been completely honest. Please remove the silly bed surrounds and put bedside tables. This was a talking point with all the other guests I spoke to.
I have been totally honest and feel upset to be so frank when all the staff and management were super helpful,professional and kind.
The highlight for my family was the amazing kids’ club; my children had a blast with engaging activities and attentive staff, allowing us some much-appreciated relaxation time.
Dining was a delight, and the spa treatments were rejuvenating. Overall, SO Sofitel exceeded our expectations in every way. I highly recommend it for families looking for luxury and fun!
Now to the staff. As if the complex wasn’t enough to make this a holiday of a lifetime, the staff were incredible. Helpful with a desire to please and make sure that guests were entirely happy with every aspect of their holiday. Special thanks to Anish, Monisha & Krishna, to Anastasia & Levi in the restaurant but honestly all the staff were fantastic, greeting you with a smile and many of whom remembered our names. If you want a welcoming paradise you couldn’t find a better hotel. My only complaint- the weather!
Room/kids club need a renovation but good experience overall.
