Sofitel Sydney Wentworth

This Hotel is in a great location but I didn't like not having a walk in shower and the room was rather small with small windows. Breakfast in the Club level along with afternoon tea were the best ! The food looked nice both nights at Dinner time but because we were heading out for Dinner we had a couple of drinks and didn't touch the food. Most of the staff in there were good, but this one girl was rude , no smile or at all friendly when she took our drink order , I tried to get her name and it was something like Josephine. I was talking to one of the nice girls only for a minute and this Josephine girl came up cut into our conversation with out so much as an excuse me and told the girl rudely she was needed else where. I always pay for Club level rooms no matter what brand of Hotel and I have never come across anyone as rude. House keeping staff though were awesome , always gave you a smile and hello when walking past and always left the room immaculate.

We had a wonderful stay at the Sofitel Wentworth, celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary. (10th to 15 March) The manager Lauren Job had organised to send petit fours, Chocolates and a bottle of red wine to celebrate our anniversary. Thank you. It was very much appreciated and enjoyed. We stayed for five nights. Booked the luxury king room with club Sofitel Access, excellent, well worth the extra cost. As we were staying for six days, the only thing I would’ve done differently is booked the junior suite, as it has a separate living room. Our room was 1536, room was well appointed, clean, lovely decor, and an extremely comfortable king bed and pillows. Which are very important to us. We had dinner at Tilda’s, the food and presentation was amazing, as were the staff. I had called the hotel the day before to say that we would be arriving around 8:30 am, as we had an early morning flight into Sydney. We were only wanting to leave our luggage – we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived that our room was ready. Thank you very much Deepa. (Club Access level) All the staff we encountered were extremely helpful, no request was too much trouble, especially the chef at the Club, as I am Coeliac, he went out of his way to make sure that all I had was gluten-free, even bringing food out to our table. Very impressed and much appreciated. The breakfast, afternoon tea, cocktails and drinks that are served in the evening that are included with the Club Access is plentiful and delicious. We are looking forward to our return. Definitely one of our favourite hotel stays in Sydney. Thanks once again to everyone from the time we arrived until we left for making our anniversary a memorable stay.

Solid hotel - stayed there over New Year's when prices for all hotels were multiple of what they normally are. Conveniently located and the like. No complaints. Rooms were a little small but perhaps that is all of Sydney - my sense is this is a solid option especially when prices are double or triple what they normally are. No complaints and conveniently located (took a while to get a room, but it's NYE so perhaps understandable). Location was convenient.

Mt friend was staying at the Sofitel Wentworth so I joined hm for a drink at around 10pm. The bar would not sell us a bottle of wine, instead electing to gouge us at the rate of $23 a small glass. Then I tried to order a cocktail and they said they wouldn't make one because they were close to closing. Then the snooty waitress bought us two glasses of water, in an attempt to send us some kind of message, I assume. Don't worry sweetheart, I won't be back.

When I recently attended the Travmedia International Media Summit it was a bit like 'returning home'. Years earlier, I'd planned black tie functions in the venue's meeting space for a series of awareness & fund-raising events: Our 'Finding a Cure' for a Cystic Fibrosis Campaign. I was very pleased to rediscover the highest standards of delivery and attention by this venue's team; well accomplished. I make special note of the smooth-functioning of the AV and audio teams involved. They knew the ballroom's landscape and were seemless. Wait-staff were discreed and on-hand when needed. They had clearly been properly trained and oriebnted into the space, which allowed participants full run-of-the-house to get things accomplished; plentiful pads, pens and cold water mayseem like the small things' but in a rapid-fire flow of data and information...having them at our fingertips on every table paid big dividends.
