For years the Sofitel was in very real danger of stagnation. Now this revamped concrete block finds itself at the heart of the action with revitalised Krakowskie Przedmieście on one side, and Saski Park on the other. And, right in front, Sir Norman Foster’s Metropolitan building, complete with its glass cased offices and designer boutiques. So what of the Sofitel itself? Rooms are dapper enough, fully equipped to deal with the steep demands of the five star traveller. Ask for a business class room if you require an additional study with fax and copy facilities.
