Out of the several hotels I stayed at this trip, this one was just okay in terms of value for money. We didn't get a sea view room, so the room experience itself was pretty average. I wouldn't recommend staying in the side rooms – they're small, don't get much light, and have no view. However, the outdoor facilities are excellent! There are five swimming pools and a very long private beach, perfect for a relaxing day. My kids had a blast.

Had a wonderful stay at Sofitel Dubai The Palm – truly a tropical paradise in the heart of Dubai.
The room was luxurious with stunning sea views and a peaceful vibe.
Loved the private beach, pools, and beautiful resort layout.
The staff were friendly and the service was top-notch.
Highly recommended for a relaxing and memorable getaway!
Absolutely in love with this hotel

We had an incredible time at Sofitel Downtown. The staff were incredible warm and welcoming - the receptionist even surprised us with a room upgrade. It was the perfect gesture after arriving in Dubai after midnight. Even though the main pool was out of service (for good reasons, it’s summer) we were still able to access another pool to cool off. The location is excellent, super close to the air conditioning walkway to Dubai Mall. The hotel itself is luxury! We’re so glad we stay. Thank you so much to the team, especially Nanda who is an absolute superstar. We’ll be back!!!

This hotel boasts an excellent location, very close to the metro station, making transportation incredibly convenient. Right next door, there's a shopping mall and a Carrefour supermarket, which was absolutely perfect for our last-minute shopping spree before heading back home. The room itself was incredibly spacious. We stayed on the 30-something floor, offering expansive views and a spectacular cityscape. The bathtub was huge, making for a wonderfully relaxing soak, and the bedding was also superb, ensuring a very sound sleep. The TV was actually the largest we saw during our entire trip to the UAE. As a honeymoon couple, the hotel thoughtfully prepared a chocolate cake for us, which tasted fantastic.

The most delightful surprise was the hotel's outdoor swimming pool on the sixth floor. It's really large, divided into two sections: 1.2 meters and 1.5 meters deep. There were plenty of loungers by the pool and even a bar. We went twice in total; the first time we stayed for three hours, and the second time we indulged for a full six hours. Just lying there, reading a book, browsing on our phones, occasionally taking a dip, and then coming back to relax some more – it was truly delightful. When we got hungry, we'd order pizza, quesadillas, or fries, and the prices were very reasonable. Plus, they had a happy hour from 4 PM to 7 PM daily, offering various alcoholic beverages.

The only minor inconvenience was that if you ordered takeout, you had to go downstairs to pick it up yourself. Delivery drivers weren't allowed upstairs, and the hotel didn't offer room service for deliveries.

All in all, we had a very enjoyable two-day stay here.

It's a little strange that children are not allowed to stay~ The location is in the city center, but it's not very convenient to travel, and the road is closed in front of the door~

The experience staying at Sofitel Paris Arc de Triomphe was remarkable. From the service (at the reception, bellboy, room service staff) to the room itself, the quality was just top-notch. Felt welcoming every single time I returned to rest after the end of each day, and even during checking out, the staff left a good impression. Will be back to stay at this hotel!

I’m not sure if Paris is just expensive in general, but… this place doesn’t really feel like a 5-star hotel.
There’s a musty, almost moldy smell in the room, and the water pressure is so low that it took me forever to take a shower. 😩
But then again, the last 5-star hotel I stayed at didn’t even have hot water, so… I guess low water pressure is something I can live with.

They did upgrade my room, but honestly… aside from being bigger, there’s not much to like.
Since it’s just the two of us, we don’t really need a larger room anyway.
The whole place — from the room itself to the building and even the elevator — feels old and a bit unpleasant.
For a 5-star hotel, it’s really disappointing. I wouldn’t recommend it.

There’s an InterContinental right across the street, and the staff there actually greeted guests properly.
It was around the same price, and honestly, I wish I had stayed there instead.
The staff here are very kind, but apart from that, I have to be honest about what really matters to me.

I do appreciate the room upgrade, 
but truely the hotel facilities are disappointing.

The hotel is in an excellent location, within easy walking distance of various attractions. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with separate wet and dry areas. The service is warm and thoughtful, and the breakfast is rich.

My first time at Sofitel Shanghai, and it was super convenient with its location close to both my client and the high-speed train station. The service was really warm and welcoming (the housekeeping staff was so thoughtful; it's rare to have all my drinking water requests met at once, which is a huge plus for business travelers). The hotel decor is lovely, and the room was quiet, far exceeding my expectations. A big thank you to Chelsea for the arrangements!

The hotel is luxurious and elegant, with spacious and bright rooms. The mattress and bedding are incredibly comfortable, really helping improve sleep. Breakfast offers a wide variety of nutritious options. From the security guards at the entrance to the front desk staff, restaurant servers, and even the cleaning aunties, everyone's attitude was exceptionally good. They even gave us a complimentary room upgrade. On the day we checked in, a friend from out of town brought two pre-dressed old hens as a gift. It was already past midnight, so we approached the front desk to ask if they could store them in the freezer for us. The kind young man on duty immediately contacted the kitchen and helped us solve the problem without a second thought. This is truly a high-end hotel, a guarantee of quality. I will definitely be bringing my family and friends back to stay here in the future!
