Overall, the hotel was beautiful, clean, and had amazing staff members. Allan was great; he always asked about our day and had excellent customer service skills. Melissa was also great; she made the birthday surprise I had for my friend smooth and easy. I appreciated that. The only reason I gave it 4/5 was because the experience at the spa wasn’t great. I wanted to book a spa service for both my friend and me since it was her birthday, and I always look forward to the spa services everywhere I go. However, when we arrived at the spa, we felt judged. When we asked for the services, it was like we were being rushed out. The atmosphere wasn’t welcoming, which was disappointing because I had an amazing experience at the spa in Sofitel Marrakech and was looking forward to the one in Dubai. Unfortunately, we had to book a spa outside the hotel. Overall, the experience was good, though. All the staff downstairs were amazing, the housekeeping was great, and the breakfast was 10/10. There were many options to choose from, and the restaurant was very beautiful and clean.

Great hotel. Disappointing Service

Amazing hotel and facilities. The service by the breakfast staff is extremely disappointing especially if you are an early bird. Waiting times for anything staff related (e.g. coffee) can be over 20mins which is a real let down. Apart from the breakfast waiting staff, everyone else was great.

Our stay at Sofitel Dubai Downtown was truly amazing! The customer service was outstanding; the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome, and we were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary room upgrade. The highlight for our kids was definitely the bunk beds, which they absolutely loved. Overall, a wonderful family experience and highly recommended.

Lovely hotel with a few disappointments

Hotel is lovely but it is further from the Mall than is promoted. You need to allow 15-18 minutes of walking from the Hotel using the street and covered air conditioned walkways. Also the closure of the pool area on Level 5 was disappointing, especially as the beautiful photos of this feature were the reason for our decision to stay at the Sofitel.

Perfect location to Dubai Mall & Burj Khalifa

A Wonderful 2 night stay in a suite overlooking Burj Khalifa. Large and roomy, very comfortable bed and the blackout curtains were amazing. The 10 minute covered walkway to get to Dubai Mall is perfect, to beat the August heat. We did get Half Board. Breakfast was excellent. Lunch options were a bit confusing as very limited. We had a sunset cruise so didnt utilise the Dinner option. Unfortunately the reason we picked this particular hotel was the pool area and view, but it was under construction. This should have been advised on the website. We had access to the Residents Pool instead but it was crazy windy, so we weren't able to stay for long. Umbrellas were being blown over. But the staff are friendly, professional and very helpful.
