Sofitel New York

I went to the first annual Baguette Battle. It was held in the ball room on the second floor of the hotel. The Baguettes and cheese were good, but the room was so packed with people that it was impossible to move around. It ended up being more of a stressful than fun experience in the end. Maybe the next one will be held in a larger venue.

It's been a while, but I really enjoyed my 4 day stay at the Sofitel. The doormen remembered our names every time we entered and exited. We also lived the restaurant. Beds were really comfortable.

Good experience. Great staff, nice rooms, very comfortable feather beds and so on. Only downside is the slow free WiFi. You have to pay to unclog it. With how much this place costs already, they should include the fastest possible Internet access

Highly recommend this hotel. Really nice beds and sheets not saying that in an untastful way actually a high thread count. What a really plus is the Hermes soap come stock in every room.
Thanks

My husband and I stayed at the Sofitel New York as a splurge for my birthday. We got a great deal on Hotwire, which worked out really well since we were within walking distance of everything we wanted to see in NY. While the rooms didn't feel quite as luxurious as I had imagined (I guess I don't know the difference between 4-star and 5-star hotels), the hospitality was FANTASTIC. The woman who checked us in at the front desk was so sweet and friendly that it was almost alarming. When she heard we were in NY for my birthday, she had champagne sent to our room! It was the kind of personal touch which I haven't experienced at other NY hotels and which I really appreciated. Kudos to the Sofitel team -- keep up the good work!
