I travel mostly for business. My company usually puts mebup at Le Germain which Iove. So I was disappointed to hear Sofitel. I confess I did not know the brand. The hotel has everything a business traveler requires with a few nice touches. A woman commented that the place was garrish and overdone. To each their own. I liked the mural and liked the renoiresque touches especially the high end restaurant called Renoir. Love the bellman's top hat. Got upgraded to Luxury suite, not sure why but very ample. Food and booze a bit expensive but the lovely brunette bartender in a black low cocktail dress made up for it. Very good service. Super fast checkin and out. I'd stay here again.
