The Sofitel is a great hotel. We had a high floor and the view was captivating.the room was very clean, the staff were generally very helpful. The bellman was very friendly and courteous. Turn down service with water and chocolate was grand ( though, given its luxury status was expected). The concierge was very helpful as we departed - he handled a currency matter for me. Except for a snafu at time of arrival, we everything was as expected. But for the arrival snafu, the rating would have been 5 stars. Maybe it's a sign of the changing times, as Sofitel is a luxury brand, it creates certain expectations.While the expectations were generally met, there was no "wow" factor attached to the delivery of those expectations.

Staff was wonderful, friendly and professional. Room was very clean & spacious. We brought our dog and stayed in the dog room. It did still smell like other dogs when we walked in but didn't linger. (Expected) Breakfast was exceptional. It was supposed to be included with our stay but we did have to pay for a third of it. Maybe the breakfast foods we ordered were not part of the free breakfast but they should have told us. One of the elevators has a urine smell when we stepped in. Overall would have been a 5 star since it's so close to Michigan Ave and nice location. hird if it.
