Off the bat, Sofitel has a decor and design style that presumably appeals to francophiles. It s interesting nonetheless. Their So Cosy room has great amenities and a high ceiling. Their large windows look towards the inside of the hotel, which gives you about a walkway s width to the opposite side and interestingly, looks into the walkway of the other wing. So the combination of this view and the absolutely tiny room; I officially rename it So Claustrophobic . Of course, tastes and preferences are subjective but the real issue to have a service attendant help himself into my room with me inside after the bell wasn t answered. I spoke to the manager and his reply to it was: this is normal hotel practice unless the Do Not Disturb sign/light is switched on . I had expected more from a five star hotel. Adieu.
