"The rooms were very clean and spacious, and the bed was extremely comfortable. The staff were nice and welcoming and had great suggestions for local restaurants. We also greatly appreciated being able to leave our luggage in a safe storage area in the hotel after check-out while we explored the city before our flight. I would absolutely stay here again!"
"This was a superb hotel as a base for our 5 night trip. Although situated just outside the main town it is excellent value for money whilst offering a high standard.
The rooms are extremely spacious and the whole of the hotel is modern, airy and welcoming.
The restaurant is situated on the top floor with lovely views of the mountains and the breakfast offering was plentiful and delicious.
A big shout out to Fabrice, the restaurant manager, who was so very friendly and helpful in giving us tips on the local area.
Dinner was also of a high standard and we enjoyed an amazing steak that was cooked to perfection and well presented.
The pool ( again situated on the top floor), was a welcome addition to cool off in the hot weather we experienced during our stay. "
"We had a lovely stay at Residence Sophia. We were given a lovely greeting and help with our bags. The cabin was exactly as advertised -clean and comfortable with everything we needed. The grounds were well maintained with very nice landscaping. The two swimming pools were brilliant, warm, clean and not crowded. Résidence Sophia is also in a great location for exploring the island easily via the T10. Thank you for a wonderful stay! "
