My wife and I stayed in Washington for 4 nights as part of a two week holiday in the US and really enjoyed our stay at the Sofitel. We had booked a Junior Suite but were very disappointed when we found our suite overlooked the very dull courtyard and was wrapped round the lifts (apparently all the Junior Suites are... More

This hotel is in a great location in DC, just one block from the White House and a short walk to other area attractions. The service was good and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Our room on the 5th floor was large and comfortable, but the closet was small. We were told this upon check in and it was... More

On a recent business trip to Washington, DC, I had the opportunity to stay at the Hotel Sofitel. The location is very good...a short walk to Lafayette Square and the White House, easy access to the Metro, and an $8 cab ride to the Capitol. What made this hotel experience so exceptional was the attentiveness and friendliness of the staff.... More

The hotel is in a GREAT location -- about a block from the White House and all other attractions. The room with the king bed was really designed for one person. For American standards the room was a bit small. The room was very very quiet. The personnel at Sofitel were above excellent. The word "no" is not in their... More

First rate service all the way around and easily in the top 5% of the >2000 hotels I've stayed in. Look for deals - we paid about $175/night which isn't all that bad for a great location in DC. More

I have yet to find a hotel as welcoming and with as helpful and friendly a staff as the DC Sofitel. I have stayed at this hotel twice a month for almost 2 years. It feels like home because of the generous staff from the doormen who welcome EVERY guest to the desk staff (superb at check-in and departure to... More

We would highly recommend the Sofitel for its very convenient location. It is within walking distance to the White House, Renwick museum and many other attractions plus has a metro stop with in 2 blocks. The staff was very courteous and always helpful. Our coneirge, Mrs. Van Zant, even printed a metro schedule for us as we had heard there... More
