It has become very dated and hasn't changed much over the last 10 years. Some double glazing would help with all the noise each night when the boys take their toys out around and around the roads, hour after hour. It is really noisy every night with the cars. Some updates and a small scubbing brush in bathroom corners would improve the look. We were there 10 days. We had lots of fresh towel, but not once were the sheets changed, which was a surprise. Location is great and close to needs. The bar on the ground floor that leads to the Oasis has great food and staff. We do recommend be it seriously needs an upgrade.

Great location for a short trip. Plenty of dining options are around the local area. The buffet breakfast was fantastic with a wide variety of hot and cold options which my 13 year old really enjoyed.

the hotel met my expectations as advertised in terms of cleanliness etc.. I didn't really utilise the facilities of dining, bar or swimming with Oasis and Pacific Fair close by but found guest laundry most useful. I found the staff most helpful when I did have a few questions.

My husbands words were “worst 5 star hotel I have ever stayed in!”. Staff were lovely and helpful, rooms were dated but comfortable. Pool dated and dirty (clumps of hair and food scraps floating around), no free wifi or streaming on TV, no mini bar or access to water fountain to refill own water bottles. Pretty disappointed.

Kind and helpful staff
Well this little getaway was planned for a long time but then I went and injured my ankle badly and could not actually leave my bed to enjoy the trip with my friend. HOWEVER Katerina on reception was so lovely and kind and helped change the booking details (as it was already paid for in advance) and my daughter and my friend were able to enjoy the visit. Thanks for being so helpful Sofitel. They had a wonderful time at GROUNDWATER festival instead of me.

We thought we’d try to stay the Sofitel for a change. We usually stay at crowne plaza so we are use to shaving mirror in the bathroom, and night lights under the bathroom sink, softer mattress. The mattress was extremely hard I had sore back for 3 days. The pool was not heated which is a big shame and my fault I should’ve checked that before booking so we won’t stay at Sofitel again unfortunately the only positive thing was it was close to restaurants and beach but there are lots of other hotels near by so we’ll go to them next time. I think we’ve been spoilt staying at higher class of hotels.

Overnight stay
We were lucky as the room was ready when we arrived and checked in early. Room and Hotel is outdated. Feels like back in the late 80s early 90s Really don't feel like it match the quality or other sofitel overseas. Breakfast in the morning was nice. Better then the others in the Boardbeach area.
