Unsurpassed customer service
A fellow traveller arrived to check-in after room service and all restaurants had shut down. 10 minutes later, the front desk staff managed to bring him some fruit and a sandwich, without his even asking!

overall first choice hotel in Minneapolis
I have stayed at this hotel multiple times a year in the past several years and generally very happy with the experience. Occasionally there may be a minor problem with the room but this is generally promptly handled. I have never stayed in a standard room so I do not know what these are like. But, I can say it is worth the cost to book a suite here. Also try to get a room on the original non smoking floors. In my last stay I was in a suite on two and that still had some what of an odor. Another minor annoyance is the lack of free internet access and occasional problems with the t-moible hot spot I usually order room service multiple times during my stay and it is curious that the same item can very greatly in quality so this is always some what of a gamble. The room service menu also is somewhat lacking in variety especially if you have any dietary restrictions. Additionally, I have also tried multiple times to order something from the menu at the two dining rooms during their operating hours and have always been told this is impossible despite what they may say at the front desk. However room service staff is always very professional and helpful. Also the service here is much better than that at the local hyatt or W. Another plus is the no hassle close to door self parking (I hate valet and the feeling I do not have immediate access to my car- though that is available here) and easy access to highways, shopping and airport.

A week at Sofitel MPLS
I stayed a week so my perspective may be a bit different than some. Overall, while I found the staff very polite and helpful, I thought that the food, the room noise and the overall room experience did not add up to the cost. Perhaps Sofitel had its day, but I think the rooms are a bit outdated, small and noisy and they were not worth the cost. It is not a bad place, just not worth what they want you to pay.
