The 4 star Sofitel is situated in front of Jebel Saber overlooking the mountains and the city. The exterior is typical of a large hotel, but the interior is quite stylish and it is very spacious.
Rooms are a good size and nicely furnished with the usual facilities – big bed, fridge, nice bathroom etc.
The restaurant has big windows with good views over the city and serves a buffet of international food at a high standard. Service is very good – much better than the other 4 and 5 star hotels we stayed in.
There is a coffee shop in the lobby, tennis courts and a lovely quiet, library and reading room tucked away in a corner off the lobby.
The pool is on a terrace which overlooks the mountains and city. It is a little cool but just about bearable, although you have to dry quickly when you get out if you are swimming in the late afternoon at sunset.
Unique Qualities: Excellent service and food and very well decorated.
The views of the city and the mountains.
The pool terrace is a good place to watch the sunset over the mountains.
