Hotel was perfect - clean, comfortable and had everything to entertain us and our little boy in equal measure. It was an amazing trip - only issue was that we couldn’t stay longer. 10/10.
The food was outstanding and there’s private access to a beautiful clean beach. The staff was beyond helpful in letting us have a late checkout and accommodating all our needs. Special shout out to Mary in reception!
Would highly reccommend this hotel. Was very well pleased on arrival and during the stay.
One minor negetive i would let others know about, is the level of service does decrease when VIP's or weddings party are in attendance. The staff do go out of their way to accomodate, but are stretched at times.
Pool staff were very friendly with friendly chat throughout.
Rooms were not being turned over consistently daily. With towels missing. Rags being left behind and toiletry items not being replenished. With a short call to the concierge this was recitified however did mean a call to them.
Nice rooms and view. Clean and spacious. Pool food was very disappointing, all salads came with only half the ingredients, even after complaining we didn’t get what was on the menu and no explanation or discount. Not enough showers around the pool area so hygiene is a big concern and some staff don’t speak English, so getting help with issues proves difficult. Pool towels are mostly stained and some really, really badly. We would not return.
The strength of all Sofitel hotels is the staff. Always friendly, courteous and helpful. Room was large and airy, nice little balcony. Club music is played outside all afternoon and I found it a bit intrusive but the families probably enjoyed it. Excellent gym.
Just back from a stay at Sofitel Bahrain and honestly, it was excellent. The hotel is in a stunning spot right on the beach with beautiful sea views and a peaceful, private feel. Staff were genuinely warm and attentive—nothing felt forced. The rooms were spacious, clean, and had that subtle luxury feel without being overdone.
The Friday brunch was a real highlight—loads of variety and great atmosphere. Spa is worth a visit too, and the pool area was perfect for a proper switch-off.
All in all, a brilliant mix of comfort, service, and scenery. Highly recommend if you're looking for a relaxing break in Bahrain with a touch of class. 🌅👌
It was a fantastic facilities and stay, enjoyed the atmosphere, and staff, however, the rooms were not very clean, also noted some blood sports on bed sheets
Lovely hotel and great staff, the beach area is small but ok. We really enjoyed the Greek restaurant and the live entertainment and greek dancing. The Indian restaurant looks beautiful , the service was good but the food wasn't great. We'd definitely stay at the Sofitel again.
The staff are wonderful!! So welcoming! The Italian and Greek restaurants were lovely.. especially the Greek restaurant that had live music and dancing!!

My daughter and I agreed to an upgrade to Club Level (at our expense, not free) and were able to enjoy a lovely evening at Club Millesime with an excellent hostess, Angelika. Seriously the best mojitos I’ve ever had! We then enjoyed ladies night at the Greek restaurant, Yemaz, complete with wonderful live music and complimentary wine and shisha. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was exceptional and so relaxing! In the hotel itself, the beds were heavenly and the room was nicely furnished. If I had to make a suggestion, it would be more tv channels in English. Breakfast was great and the service was nice overall. We brought my grandson for a few hours until his father could pick him up, but the kids pool area was drained and closed, so that was a disappointment in an otherwise perfect girls night!

Team did a great job setting up the room. However on arrival since brunch shares the same lobby as check in the noise is awful as a check in experience. The room is noce however as a suite there are no plugs in the bedroom. No USB ports which is odd. The bathroom amenities for a suite are missing so you have to call and they are visibly the cheapest they could find. No bubble bath availabile so dont ask.
The room as I said was nice, not excellent and i have certainly stayed at better suites. But the team were lovely and did a great job making us feel welcome.

Hotel is in a lovely setting on the beach but is masquerading as a 5 star hotel.
We were staying as a family for a winter sun break, whilst we were there the hotel was hosting a big wedding over many days. The noise level from this was completely unacceptable on many occasions (stacks of speakers and very loud music), public areas of the hotel monopolised, set up taking place at night causing sleep disturbance and hotel staff generally prioritising the wedding.
Mattresses on Sun loungers were shabby as were many pool towels. No service at pool bar. Service at Breakfast very hit and miss.
Friday brunch also very loud, disturbing attempts at relaxing by the pool. Really feels like the hotel prioritises making money over guest satisfaction.
Club Millesime was good, great service from Hanna and Michelle.
Rooms are of a very good size. Very nice bathroom and in good condition. Unfortunately there were some issues with the booking. Whilst I booked a room for 2 adults and a 5 year old (age was clearly stated) and paid 350£ for bed and breakfast for one night, we were informed when arrived at the hotel that if we require a bed for our child that there will be an extra charge of about 30 quid or if we wanted a free baby cot. Again the room was for 2 adults plus one child and there was only one king size bed. No couch no nothing for a child to sleep. When I contacted hotels.com they told me oh yes you need to pay extra £30 for a childs bed which is so bizarre since the room we booked was for 2 adults and 1 child. In addition, the room didn't have enough towels or enough toiletries to cover the needs of 3 people. Service at the restaurant was outstanding, very attentive. The hotel has a very nice swimming pool and the beach is private and very clean.
Very nice hotel , room is well organized and comfortable with a wonderful view of the garden and the beach and the presence of the jacuzzi is very special, and to park the car is very fast. But the prices are very high. The place is very very quiet . I enjoyed my stay in tge executive room floor 3. The staff is very nice all of them .
