Perfect location close to shops, dining and transportation. Services need to be improved . No room service unless requested. Even requested, long wait, 3 -4 hours. Back to hotel 5pm after a long walk, still messy bed and wet towels, requested room service at reception while having a drink in lobby, back to room in two hours times, still not done, the staffs coming over an hour more later while we’re falling sleeping. While a local friend driving over to pick us up, it’s a short stop and she park in a safe spot, the staff told her to park somewhere else with no clear instructions, then another staff told her to drive back while she can reverse to his indicated spot! So frustrated!

The 5 star rating is only for the view and the name Sofitel itself. Other than that, i would rate 2 to 3 stars. Firstly, staffs do not know about their facilities and room setting. They told me every room will have a bath tub before i booked but unfortunately this is not the case when checked in. I spent 30mins to resolve this matter. Therefore, checking in experience isnt that great. Secondly, no complementary water available but advise us to drink tap water. Didnt they read the news that sydney water is polluted and carcinogenic?

Although we had a nice stay, room was ok bit expensive when compared to other hotels in the area. Pool area looked tired, I could see renovation is in progress, but customers should be notified. Ladies toilet out of action, with a sign saying use disabled, but that was locked, so had to walk around to the Spa facilities, also no bar staff at Pool, yet the pool area was full. Cafe in Reception cakes were dry and my husband ordered a meat and cheese roll which was dry and hard to eat. Great location though, convenient for light rail and ICC.
