Quite possibly the best hotel I've ever stayed in. The staff can't do enough for you and the rooms are immaculate. Its only about a block away from times square, so location is great as well.

After searching for weeks on the internet for a New York hotel I gave up; the amount of choice and trying to compare reviews had my head spinning, I just didn't want to get it wrong (stayed at the New Yorker last time but didn't want to go back, was OK but basic with tiny room). Passed it over to... More

We stayed there for 4 nights and everything was perfect. The room was clean, all the staff was friendly and helpful. This was the first time we traveled to NY so we picked this hotel because if its convenience location. It was only few block away from everything. We would stay there again when we come back to NY.

We arrived at Sofitel with a confirmed reservation on a Friday at 2:30pm. First we were told that "the system was down" and that we needed to wait until 3 to check-in, which was fine, since that is the official check-in time. At 3, however, we were told that the hotel was overbooked, and that we were "randomly chosen" to... More

My wife and I stayed here for 7 nights, through to April 1. The first impressions with the service staff were great, and the lobby area was fantastic (my wife had to take photos of beautiful flowers arranged throughout the lobby area). We stayed in a "junior suite" overlooking W44th St, the room was impressive 60sqm, clean, quiet & comfortable.... More

We stayed at the Sofitel for a weekend, our first visit there. The service was outstanding. The rooms were good sized for NY and the location was great. It was pricey but a value for NY. We will definitely stay there again.

The bed was the most comfortable of any on our trip. Slept well every night. Loved how close the hotel was to everything we wanted to see. Didn't eat at the hotel at all because there were so many great, cheaper places near by. I would definitely stay here again!

We only stayed one night at the Sofitel for a quick stopover in the city coming from the caribbean. We could have easily stayed much longer, since we felt very welcome there. The French touches every now and then ("bonjour" "au revoir" etc) add a nice european flair to the chic atmosphere of this place. The lobby is somewhat dark,... More

This hotel is centrally located but on a quieter street. When you step inside from the busy New York streets you immediately feel relaxed. Staff are all very friendly and polite and anticipate you needs before you even ask. Rooms are quiet and very comfortable. The deal I booked did not include breakfast so went to the Red Flame Diner... More
