4/10 Terrible Stay/Customer ServiceBefore staying at the Sofitel we received a phone call in the morning asking what time we will be arriving?which is odd, but we guessed that it was depending on traffic. Upon arrival we were told by reception their computer was not working, to go to another area to check in. The guy explained our room was not ready until 4pm. I explained i had just had surgery and needed my room, and why did they not tell us when they rung in the morning..his response was that he got busy. I asked if check out is 11am? how come these guests would not leave until after check-in 3pm.... he could not give us an answer. We had paid extra for a spa and view, but wanted to put us in another room until after 4pm. We were meant to get free cheese platter & sparkling wine.. these did not arrive. We did get free parking after I asked for it. We went out for a bit came back & spoke to the same guy & said how we are bending over backwards for the people that should of been out hours ago. Suddenly there was a spa room available. We had a meal on level 3, quite expensive...and the chairs were cracked & old...also the pool was not working, neither was the online room service. Overall there are plenty of nicer updated hotels in Gold Coast that accommodate guests a lot better than the Sofitel did.

8/10 The staff were impeccable and the hotel is lovely. Very close to everything including the beach.We made an error with our booking and the staff were amazing at helping us to find a solution. The views were wonderful, the room was clean and comfortable with lots of options to upgrade your sleep (pillows, masks etc).

10/10 We received a complimentary bottle of wine for our 25th wedding anniversary and a little note.Breakfast was fantastic, so much to choose from.
Centrally located to restaurants and cafes, close to the beach.
Loved the great housekeeping staff who made up our room each day just beautifully.
I asked if something special could be done as we were staying for our 25th wedding anniversary and there was a bottle of wine and a little note left for us I. Our room upon arrival which was just lovely.

4/10 Bed bugs alertBed bugs alert! The level we stayed on was unclean, damp, and outdated.
The sheets did not smell clean however thought maybe it hadn’t been used for awhile. Musty smell, dirty bath and balcony.
We did have a one nite stay and enjoyed the location and pool area however the hotel and staff seemed tired.
Have never reviewed before but after my son and I had bed bug bites clearly from the room, I would want others to know before deciding to book a stay here.
