Shivaskar, May 2025
Pros (+) The location is about 15-20 mins away from Dubai mall and most areas. It is close to the airport and also away from the dense city. So, there is some escapism from the busy city at the end of the day. The Spa and gym great, the breakfast is good with some healthy food choices. The train station is a bit of a walk away and the trains will add time to your journey. Taxis are plentiful at the entranc...
Cons (-) One morning, we were told to go to level 4 for breakfast and the other mornings, we were at level 2. Level 4 breakfast did not have the same variety as level 2 but we only knew that having been to both.

Tanya, May 2025
Pros (+) Good food and decent rooms
Cons (-) We reserved two rooms at Sofitel and specifically requested connecting rooms about two weeks prior to our stay. However, upon checking in, we were informed that we couldn’t be on the same floor due to a lack of availability, indicating that our request was overlooked and reflecting a lack of attention to detail.

Tanya, May 2025
Pros (+) The rooms were decent, typical of a basic 5-star hotel. We booked the Club Millésime, which was satisfactory, although the pastries were quite nice. The food in both restaurants was enjoyable, but I felt that the fish at the French restaurant was overpriced. Overall, the experience didn’t feel luxurious; it was more akin to a 4-star establishment.
