Rooms were large, with a small patio including chairs, and gave a great view of mountains. Beds were very comfortable and the staff very friendly. Happy hour in the lounge every day for free, with a choice of wines and beer together with snacks. This felt more like staying at a friend's home rather than a hotel. Highly recommended

The property was located at a convenient spot, a couple of minutes walk to the shops. There have the essential cooking tools and equipment needed, especially when I have early mornings and just want to cook eggs with toast for breakfast. It was easy checking in after-hours as well since my flight arrived at 9pm - the room key was kept in a safe lock and they message you the lock number.

    Overall the hotel was very average certainly not what we were expecting (having stayed previously in 3 other Sofitel hotels). Decor was very dated and not tasteful at all. Restaurant and bar closed!! 5 stars NO! Crazy ……..
