Hotel very well located near Whitehouse. Metro station one block from hotel. Nice room and big bathroom with all the amenities. Very cozy bed but for me a little too soft the matress. We had complimentary bottled water every day. The only issue were the drappers that don't fit well against the wall and let the sunlight comes into the room since very early. But overall Sofitel is a great place to be in D. C.

Second visit to DC, second visit to Sofitel Hotel. From start to finish the hotel does it right. The staff is courteous and accommodating. The rooms are spacious and clean. The food from the Opaline restaurant is fantastic! Staying at the Sofitel made my trip to DC that more enjoyable. I highly recommend this property.

Hotel is beautifully decorated, staff was very friendly and helpful. My only concerns, the middle elevator was doing something very weird at one point and kept opening and closing the door, alarm blaring and no one came to check on us? Also the tv Google cast never would work properly. Restaurant hours were pretty limited but it wasn’t the worst. Just if you wanted a drink before 4p you would have to leave property or order room service and pay extra. Other than that. Room was very clean, and bed was comfy!
