Really not good

First. Directions to hotel poor. Could have been my fault, it was 11pm, long day. (But when you get off the north terminal train turn left and keep going. Very few signs). Check in excellent. Bar service so poor it was actually terrifying. 6 blokes, noone serving. American woman gave up and went into the service area to get attention. £12:for a single whisky, poured visibly short by about 1/5th. You owe me about £2.40. Very worst: horrible unemptied bin in the bathroom!!!!! Someone's nasty stuff and i am pretty sure there was a condom in there. When I mentioned it at checkout I got the millenial 'woopsy' response.

Service non existent. Had to wait nearly an hour for drink and food, only half of what ordered turned up but you kindly added everything to the bill along with a service charge - which we got removed immediately. Air conditioning would not go below 21 so had a very hot uncomfortable night. Couldn’t wait to leave at 5am. If I wanted to stay at a premier inn I would have booked that. You should be ashamed to call yourself a sofitel

Stayed here for an early flight from Gatwick. The hotel was easy to find and extremely convenient from the train. I got there early so I could use the gym facilities - very small but perfectly adequate and everything was working and kept clean. Choice of food was great - I’m a fussy vegetarian and was delighted with the menu choices (I rarely say this). Nice choice of beers and IPA’s available. Service was great. Really pleased with my stay here compared to others I have used at the airport - so pleased I have booked it again. Thank you
