Just had a courtesy call from the Sofitel Brisbane Central concerning an upcoming stay to be informed that Accor Plats will have access to the Sofitel Club from Monday!

WOW that's awesome - I wonder if that's also going to be the case for Sofitel Sydney???

Probably not. Both Sydney and Melbourne clubs are quite small compared to Brisbane. Some stays I have been the only one there.

How many times can I like this.

I hope Syd and Mel follow suit. I would stay there then!!

Excellent news, a review wouldn't go astray if your up for it!

Hooray! I just booked a room there for a stay in a couple of weeks time! Happy days!

I wouldn't turn my nose up at this (I'm not a Plat) - but I was at the Sofitel BNE Central last weekend in a Club room and found the Club underwhelming - very dated and somehow had a surfeit of (dare I say) bogan-esque types.

YMMV ( I hope).

Anyone got any pics?? Google returns seem ok

 

[RooFlyer]

Only one area,sorry; on the other side is the buffet and more seating. I'm not saying its awful, just dated.

Can someone advise what the breakfast is like in the lounge, as well as the food through the day and the evening canapés, plus times. I have need to be in Brisbane a bit coming up and am tossing up between the Sofitel (no status but changing soon) and the Hilton (where I have diamond status).

Thanks!

Thank you subharpoon

That sucks. Stayed there for two nights on the weekend, got upgraded to the club room but wasn't granted access to the lounge.

Sounds like I was just before the change. Story of my life.

But great news for the future anyway Subharpoon. Thanks for that.

I thought Club Room gave you access regardless of status? Isn't that the point of a club room??

Accorhotels.com still states access to the lounge is excluded for Sofitel MEL / SYD / BNE...

ACCESS TO EXECUTIVE LOUNGE
Upon request and subject to availability on arrival at the hotel, if existing (except Sofitel Melbourne, Sofitel Brisbane and Sydney).

Here's hope they will allow access to all 3 - would be good if somebody currently staying at Sofitel MEL / SYD could enquire about this...

Will check with the GM later on today.

Can you please also ask him/her if this will be extended to Sofitel SYD/MEL as well?
