I did not realise at the time of booking that this hotel had such a good rating. Upon arriving it was clar that this hotel was more than the usual business type hotel I get booked into. Wished I'd taken my speedos! I stayed for two nights on business but also ate in the "Tres Fortes" restaurant on the top... more

The hotel has a great location and the view from the terraced rooms is hard to beat. Only fault was the standard of food in the main restaurant - could have been much better for the price -... more

we stayed in sofitel for 4 nights recently, arriving from the uk, and the first thing you notice is that france is still not smoke free. everyone reeks of it. its in the restaurants, all over the hotel, by the pool, everywhere and we were suffocating in it. apart from that, the hotel itself is lovely. you get a picture... more

We stayed 5 nights 22-27 December 2006 and occupied one of the ground floor rooms (R 27) which has a balcony overlooking the old port. The location, at the mouth of the Old Port, is superb with magnificent views over the Vieux Port.
