The Sofitel Club Lounge

To celebrate our anniversary, we stayed at the Sofitel and througha club membership we have, had access to the Sofitel Club Lounge.

Well, well, well - very nice indeed!

You can pop up to the 30th floor anytime and get a range of teas - herbal or otherwise, hot chocolates or espresso coffees. It comes from one of those automated espresso machine which grinds the beans and heats the milk, and while I am not a big fan of them, it was one of the better ones I have used.

They also have refreshments available all day - sandwiches (very nices ones too), biscotti, fruit etc. They also have a great breakfast - buffet style, with bacon, eggs, mushrooms etc, as well as an outstanding array of danishes, cereals, fruit, nudie drinks, toast, cold meats, cheese etc.

There are some really nice big screen tv's, lovely leather lounges, newspapers, magazines, internet, chess boards and a really nice view!

It was just lovely and really added to the stay. The best thing is it is all included in your room price, which we also got at a good rate. So we would definitely recommend it!
