Exceptional Sofitel Service 

"We really appreciated the service and courtesy that was accorded all our participants. Nothing was too much trouble for Hannah and other staff provided immediate responses to our needs. Morning and afternoon tea were perfect; even the coffee was fine (from a coffee snob!) and the lunch was fabulous. Thanks for your wonderful welcome and service. It means a lot for our hardworking staff and management. We are intending to hold our next Strategic Planning meeting at Sofitel. "

 

IWSS - 23 July 2024

Flawless Event Execution

"The space was phenomenal, food and drink selection was exquisite. Nam [Assistant Manager - Conference & Events Operations] was great, nothing was an issue. Everything was sorted and looked after. He consulted me but took the lead. I personally felt he went above and beyond.The service/floor team were great and friendly as well.

Additionally, the AV team were phenomenal, everything ran so smoothly. They are whizzes at what they do, the lighting, the AV, the mic switches. Honestly, couldn’t have asked for a smoother AV experience. You guys made it look like a million dollar event, even though we were on a tight budget, from the fun lighting, the addition of drum roll sound effects. None of the details were missed."

Lifeline Fundraising Event - 17 June 2024

Exemplary Service and Dedication

"I’ll just say that we were all super impressed with everyone from the Sofitel involved in the lead up and the evening itself. Service was on point and nothing was too much trouble, even when it was."

Laura C. - 15 June 2024

Seamless Service 

"On a personal note, it was a pleasure working alongside you [Lucy, Wedding Executive] for this event. Sam [AV Partners], you too mate. Thank you for both for making it such a smooth and hurdle free experience."

Unforgettable Experience 

"It was absolutely exceptional. You have made our formal a wonderful evening, and everything from AV/Tech, help with the gear, organising tables and much more, you have made our job so much easier. The students had a fabulous time, thank you again to you and to all the wonderful staff. "

Jennie B. - 24 June 2024

Above and Beyond
