"We stayed at the Sofitel London Heathrow at both the beginning and end of our European trip, and it became a wonderfully comfortable bookend to our travels. The staff were consistently kind, welcoming and helpful.
Everything throughout the hotel was exceptionally clean, fresh, and beautifully maintained.
Our room was exceptionally comfortable, especially the beds. The chair/recliner may honestly be the most comfortable chair I have ever encountered in a hotel room! The slippers were a simple but appreciated touch for tired travelers, and the shower with full-body jets felt more like a spa experience.
Breakfast was delicious. The omelette chef was personable, and I loved the wonderfully international variety, which encouraged me to try several new things.
We also enjoyed dinner at La Belle Époque. The soufflé was incredible—an unusual-sounding combination that turned out to be a beautiful balance of flavors and textures. Even the breads and two different butters were memorable. Who knew seaweed butter would become a favorite? The salads were fresh and crisp with a delightful lemon vinaigrette.
Beginning and ending our journey here was perfect: a restful start to our adventure and a welcome respite before the long flight home. We would happily stay again."
