“WONDERFUL”

I was the meeting planner for our recent conference at the Sofitel hotel. Though we have had our meeting at your location in the past, this experience prompted me to contact you. Your staff overall was extremely nice and helpful. I received MANY comments about how impressed our members were with the hotel personnel. It made our meeting so much easier and more pleasant and made us want to return. I wanted to commend one person in particular. Sondra Lopez was our point person for breakfast, breaks and dinners during our meeting. She was well past outstanding. This amazing lady was so eager to please, extraordinarily helpful and went “above and beyond”. . She was attentive the ENTIRE time, asking if we needed anything, saying yes to everything and seamlessly making any changes/special needs that were requested. I truly can not say enough about Sondra. She is a very special and valuable worker and I would love to have someone like her working in my business. She is a true asset to your hotel and a fantastic reflection on what you do at the Sofitel. I hope you will commend her on a job expertly done. The accommodations, meeting rooms, staff and managers were absolutely FANTASTIC . Highly recommend

“A little piece of French heaven in DC”

I booked this last minute as I was in town for a friend's birthday party. I used my Sapphire Reserve card and got a points boost. It came with a credit for $100 plus free breakfast for two. I got there very late but the man who greeted me, Yao, was amazing. He was kind, friendly and got me checked in quickly. He made me want to go back and I hadn't even seen the room! I got to my room and there was macarons waiting for me with sparkling water. What a treat! I slept well, bed was comfy and I didn't want to get up. Rain shower - yes please! I will definitely stay there again!
