Decent for price. Not for families
It was an OK hotel for average travel. Decent for the price. Room service was mediocre - in room menus were inaccurate. Beds were uncomfortable. Would not recommend for families.

Great hotel, comfy beds!
Beautiful hotel with great staff. I was welcomed and enjoyed one of the best beds I've slept in! Common areas and my room were very clean. Staff was kind and responsive. The lobby bar is beautiful and welcoming. I will certainly return, as I have stayed at other hotels nearby, but Sofitel was truly great.

We originally were booked at a hotel across the street and it was horrible. They gave me our money back I walked across the street.
The concierge and everyone was great. The hotel was clean, beautifully decorated and the room was spacious. Thank you Sofitel!!!

Fabulous
Such a beautiful hotel with so many amenities. Room service breakfast was fabulous. Love the designer toiletries and the bath. Down comforter, fluffy robes and mini bar make this stay so luxurious. Check in process does take a while because staff seem to be trained to go over all the amenities in detail and there are so many. Everyone was so helpful and friendly.

All Good Things
Top-notch property! It checks all the boxes - excellent service/amazing staff, luxury look and feel, spotless rooms, and great location. This was our second stay and we have decided we will only stay at Sofitel from now on when we travel to Philly.
