“Hotel is gorgeous, but the service was terrible.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 December 2010

I stayed at this hotel with my son, his fiancee and her son. They messed up almost everything from the beginning, first telling us they only had one room (we had booked two), then saying the rooms were on different floors when we had specifically asked for them to be adjoining. Finally they upgraded us and the rooms were stunning, absolutely beautiful, could not have asked for more.
They told us we could order lunch by the pool, but when we tried to, no food was available. Eventually we were offered burgers, but after an hour they had still not arrived so we had lunch in the restaurant, but not until 4.00pm!
At dinner we were given the breakfast menu, then dinner menus with completely different prices for the same items.
Having said this, the food was great, the hotel is lovely and everyone was very friendly and pleasant. Perhaps we were just the victims of an attack of inefficiency.

“Excellent!!!! Just one downside..."”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 August 2010

We stayed at the Sofitel La Reserva for a "Romantic package" weekend. We stayed only one night but was enough to be delighted by the service, setting and facilities of this great hotel.

Room: incredibly spacious, top-notch and luxury evident in every dteail. Loved the bathroom!!!! One of the best I've ever seen. Big balcony overlooking the pool and lake... very relaxing!!!

Service: staff were very helpful and nice.

Thumbs up: rooms, service, setting,kid's club (excellent!!)
Thumbs down: SPA. And here is where I'll go into the details: the SPA looks (to my state) too much like a surgery room. Everything is greay and black and white,, no warmth at all. Spa services are completely overpriced. We both had a treatment done and we were both very dissappointed by the standard and mediocre service. Even the facilities look old to be such a new hotel.
You have to pay $130 to access the "pileta ludica". The indoor swimming pool is a little small, but the outdoor connection is really nice.

Overall, I highly recommend this hotel, but don't pay extra for spa services or treatments. They're not worth the proces.

“Muy bueno...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 October 2009

My wife and I stayed at the hotel for two nights during a weekend.
The building is beautiful, very clean, spacious. We had no troubles during cheking in or out. The room was probably the best of all, very big, nice balcony, incredible bath, the bed was PERFECT. Dont miss lunch or dinner at the "ITALPAST", a restaurant in the Country Club area (walking distance) from the hotel, very good food at very reasonable prices. You should ask the front desk to make reservations otherwise you will not get in (it is always full).
Pool area, lake, gym... everything very new and nice.
Low points: There is a "water circuit" in the SPA with some jacuzzies, steam, sauna, etc; that can only be used during one hour, you can not stay longer. I guess it would be much better (in this type of hotels) to have a place wher guests can enjoy these facilities with no time limit, and I did not like that it is a unisex space.... much better when it is separated. Another low point was the service at the swimming pool area, there is a bar that was closed (even though over 100 guests were there), and there was no option to have a drink elsewhere, this is something to be adjusted.
Everyone was very friendly and despite this small problems, we had a perfect stay
