Fodor's Review:

The European hotel group's property is a dramatic, contemporary 30-story curved tower overlooking 5th Avenue. The place has international sophistication that manages to be unfussy, with a gracious lobby, an elegant French restaurant (Gaby, named for a Parisian model who made a name for herself in the Big Apple in the 1920s), and courteous staff who are always on hand with a friendly "Bonjour." Upstairs, the rooms -- in tones of earth and mahogany -- aim to please with plush beds, stall showers, and bathtubs; the best rooms have balconies and views of the Chrysler Building.

Great weekend stay

Posted by hahairajoe from Georgia on 5/28/08
I had a great experience at the Sofitel during Memorial Day weekend. The rooms were clean and neat. It had a super location to walk to Times Square and Broadway and was close enough to subway stations for city travel. The doormen were fabulous in their personalities and assistance. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.
