We stayed at the Sofitel in Frankfurt for three nights. Ashort stay between Malta and Chicago...a chance to relax before a long flight home. The hotel was nicely situated for several good restaurants and some very nice shopping. …

Super lovely hotel with mostly very good service. Extraordinarily comfortable bed, and superbly laid-out bathroom. Lobby bar was spot on, save for the food menu which was a bit too ambitious for bar food. …

I recently stayed at Sofitel Frankfurt Opera and had an overall positive experience. The staff were exceptional—attentive, friendly, and always willing to help. They went above and beyond to ensure our needs were met, especially during the cocktail event we hosted. The service at the event was top-notch, with staff ensuring everything ran smoothly and our guests were well taken care of.The hotel is also in a fantastic location, making it easy to explore the surrounding area and enjoy local attractions.However, the air conditioning in the rooms left much to be desired. The rooms were uncomfortably hot, making it difficult to sleep at night. This was the one downside to an otherwise excellent stay.If the AC issue were resolved, this would easily be a five-star experience.

This was my first time at Sofitel am Oper and I had a really good three nights. It's very well-located: easy walk to shops etc, small but pretty park out front, Opera square and its restaurants round the corner, not far from old city …

Hotel prices in Frankfurt are pretty cheap. And this Sofitel being only 100€ more than Hilton is a great example of that. …

Easy 5+ stars. Service was outstanding, I’d hire every person I interacted with at front desk, concierge, valet, and Lili’s (bar). Great aesthetic, clean - rooms are very spacious and well designed + arranged. This will be our go-to every time in Frankfurt and would highly recommend. Wish we were staying longer!

Very much enjoyed my stay at the Sofitel. Good hotel in a central location. That said the star of the show were the staff. Parking was a bit tricky upon arrival and the staff, particularly Mahmood Ali went above and beyond help me sort things out. His help was tremendously appreciated given I had arrived just arrived from an overseas flight. A+ to him.
