I don't know where to begin with my raving review of this hotel...It all started with my initial visit to pick a wedding venue. I met Sissi Ortiz and when I say that she is amazing, I mean every bit of it. She treated me as a family member and made sure that I was happy every step of the six months leading up to my wedding. Sissi, you will always have a special place in my heart and I wish nothing but happiness and blessings to you and your family. Every time I asked her something, her response was, "Let me see what I can do". As a frazzled bride, her words comforted me and she did everything that she could do to make my day special and that it was. ALL of my guests had a wonderful time and ALL of the staff were friendly, polite, energetic and professional. Darrell, you know that I have to talk about you because you made check in a wonderful experience for me and all of my guests. After getting off an early plane ride, your smile, demeanor, jokes and friendly presence let me know that I chose the best hotel in Miami. You always greeted me with a smile and a high five and that was very comforting. Thank you Darrell and can't wait to see you again for my next visit to Miami. Sissi and Darrell, you know that everyone loved my room. My room became the party headquarters LOL. Carlos, I did not have a chance to personally meet you because I was all over the place but ALL of my guests met you and loved you and that passion fruit margarita something or another and the chicken wings LOL. You were a great bartender and you kept the drinks flowing for my drinks. Sorry, if we took up the whole bar area for three days LOL. On the day of my wedding, the staff sprung into action and everything was executed to a T from the setup to the end of the reception. All in all, sixty guests are very pleased with this hotel. Spectacular view, wonderful food, AMAZING staff and a very clean hotel.
Our names are Olga Vazquez and Felix Solorzano . We just had our daughter's wedding last Saturday 01/25/2020 at your hotel and we want to say how happy we were. Everything was awesome from the staff making us feel so welcomed and special . But there is one person in particular I want to write about her name is Maeva . This lady went above and beyond her call of duty ,Im telling she is an asset to your company . She was attentive and anything we needed was taking care of . I can honestly say she made our lives so much easier that day and I can not wait to recommend your Hotel to family and friends . Thank you for everything . Thank you Maeva .
Excellent, Excellent choice!! I highly recommend them. After much searching for a wedding venue, we opted to go with the Pullman Hotel and don't regret our choice. From the start they've been attentive to our needs and made our dream wedding come to life. Their service was top notch! Servers and bartenders were friendly yet professional interacting with all our guests. Food was amazingly delicious! We received many compliments from our guests both on the quality and quantity! Lester the Banquet Mgr as well as Maeva the Hotel event manager were easily accessible throughout the planning process, always pleasant and very accommodating. I highly recommend them!
Excellent service and all of our wedding details were executed flawlessly.
My husband and I chose this hotel because we loved the big open space of the ballroom and the open windows provided a gorgeous view of Blue Lagoon. The foyer for the cocktail hour was large and nice, but many of my guests complained that it was too hot. The hors devours were delicious, but not enough. I had chosen beef tenderloin, but never saw them and none of my guests have confirmed they had them either. Instead we had vegetable rolls. The salad and chicken for dinner was delicious. I have gotten so many compliments from my guests on the dinner. The best part of booking with the Sofitel is how many outside vendors they include for the price- open bar, chairs, linens, and cake. Our chair cushions were changed to a navy blue instead of royal blue, which was disappointing. The cake was great, except they added a black ribbon around the layers. The linens were the only vendor who provided what we requested. One of our bars closed 30 minutes early and was rude to my guests. Thankfully the other bartender stayed open and was respectful to my guests. Overall, Sammy worked very well with us and provided us what we requested. The complimentary suite the night of the wedding was beautiful and so nice to relax in after such a long day. I would recommend the Sofitel to other brides. My only suggestion to all brides is to be sure of what you want, double and triple check all your quotes/invoices, and make sure you are given what you ask for.
Our reception was truly spectacular. The staff at the Sofitel made our dream wedding come true. It was everything we envisioned and more.
I have to say my Wedding day has the been the best day of my life. This of course would not have been possible without everything running so smoothly thanks to the staff at The Sofitel Miami.
My Mother was running late with some of the decorations for the tables and the staff immediately took the box from her and told her not to worry about a thing, that they would take care of it. When we arrived back from the ceremony for the reception everything was perfectly set up.
I chose this venue because i felt like it took care of everything. I was a bride with no planner so to me that was perfect because it took away so much of the stress of having to deal with many vendors. Yvonne was also amazing, she really guided me through as i was a pretty lost bride. I would definitely recommend this to any bride, especially those who don't have a planner and who like things to be as simple as possible.
The service was very good and I recommend it.
Their suggestions worked well.
I have a situation with the florist who did not want to prepare the center piece for the grand tasting which was very unfortunate. Then I
suggest to have always an alternative vendor that was terrific.
All other vendors were very professional.
The night of the event I had nothing to worry about because the coordinator took care of everything and I just enjoy my daughter's wedding.
Sofitel definitely lived up to their motto on how life is simply "Magnifique". Every little detail was flawless and made effortless to make my big day come true. The staff went above and beyond to meet not only my every need, but my friends, family and bridal party that were all accommodated at the Hotel Sofitel. Yvonne, the wedding coordinator with Sofitel, was very attentive and made sure that from the tasting to the grand wedding entrance every single detail was just right. Yvonne's team was always welcoming, and ready to offer great advice and suggestions. The venue is also very beautiful and in the perfect location...nearby to the airport and not too far from the Miami hype, but in the ideal romantic and whimsical setting. My family was also happy with the shuttle service and seamless process of checking in and getting situated efficiently...especially because my wedding was during Spring Break! I highly recommend Sofitel, you will have your every wedding need met and only beautiful memories to last you forever.
The experience at Sofitel for my wedding was more than I could ask for from every perspective! Their team contributed on every level from their management team to the banquet staff and worked well together to make our wedding a success! From the first moment visiting the venue, Yvonne was extremely helpful in explaining the entire process and helping us understand how we can achieve our wedding vision. The wedding had two ceremonies, a cocktail hour and reception. Each event had different detailed requirements and the team at Sofitel Miami executed them timely and accurately. The supporting staff the day of the event showed each guest true hospitality and made everyone at the wedding comfortable tending to their needs. Food was served on time, guests had plenty of refreshments readily available and the overall facility was clean throughout the entire night.
It was a carefree celebration that still have our guests talking about what a great time they had! I would highly recommend this venue to family, friends and anyone looking to host a celebration where all you need to do is show up and enjoy yourself!
Yvonne and her team were outstanding from Day 1 of the visit to the venue up to the end of the wedding.
This was my third child's wedding, I had hosted weddings of my older children's in Dubai and Toronto. And was equally pleased with location, hospitality etc.
I had outside catering, and our caterers and the decorators, audio video persons all also had a smooth experience with Sofitel.
We had 350 people invited and was comfortably accommodated.
Yvonne Tamayo is seriously a gem.
We would highly recommend this location at Blue Lagoon Drive to everyone.

The Sofitel offers the best quality service and food in all of Miami for the best price. Yvonne Tamayo is clear and direct and makes you feel like a super star every time you are there. The food is the best quality food I've had from any hotel in Miami. The location is very central to everything in the city. The rooms are comfortable and luxurious without being overpriced.
i love this hotel so automatically i decided wen i get married i will get married at the sofitel miami. the food is delicious, the rooms are lovely,my wedding was so private.
make sure you have your own wedding coordinator or someone to help with the flow of events for your wedding.
My wedding was a little bit out of the usual - 2 ceremonies (Eastern & Western) and a reception. Everything ran so smoothly and looked absolutely beautiful! All of our guests had such a wonderful time and the out of towners loved staying at the hotel!
The banquet servers were so attentive with me and my husband throughout the entire night. Thank you so much Sofitel for making our wedding truly memorable! An even bigger thank you to Yvonne, Julien and Daniel!
The Sofitel Miami was amazing. They exceeded all my expectations and more. The ballroom was beautiful and the food was exceptional. Great job to the entire team from the servers, Ada, Luz, Vilma, Silviano, Julien, Daniel and Yvonne. Thank you again for making my day so special.
Every girls dream is to have their wedding day go exactly how they want. Yvonne and her staff at the Sofitel Hotel did exactly that. My husband and I were extremely pleased with the turn out of our wedding. From all the details, to the vendors, to the amazing food. From the day I signed the contract to the very next morning of our wedding I never really had to worry about anything, they had it all taken care of. Definitely would recommend this venue to any couple who is looking to have an amazing turn out & amazing team of professionals helping you through it all!
The Sofitel made everything so easy! It was our location for our ceremony & reception, plus our out of town guests. It was great having everything in one place! I was naturally worried about how our wedding would turn out, but everything was just perfect! And leading up to the big day, my nerves were put to ease by the knowledgeable staff. Even the other vendors they recommend were great to work with. Of course the food & service was amazing! In the end, having my family & friends tell me how perfect everything was, made the 2 years of planning worth it!
I have had a great experience with everyone at Sofitel Miami!! I am very glad to have chosen this hotel for my wedding reception and would do so again without a doubt! Highly recommend!
Sofitel thus far has been a great experience. All of our needs are being met & the staff is warm & welcoming.
I was amazed by how wondervul the event planning staff was, the sofitel hotel is a beautiful place to host your venue and the staff strives on making your special day a dream come true ! And best off all there prices are very reasonable . I would definetly recommend the sofitel hotel for all your party experiences !!!
After my daughter had been to several venues she absolutely knew that Sofitel was "the One". From the moment we walked in the door it was an experience like no other. There amazing venue, staff and food is top of the line. I would definetly without a doubt recommend Sofitel Miami to everyone.
My fiancé and I will be having our reception at The Sofitel Miami August 2014. Frank and I went to various locations looking for the perfect place but at the right price. The minute after we walked into the Sofitel, Frank and I felt that it was the right place. It made us feel feel that it was it and we didn't need to search for any other place. The service is phenomenal and Yvonne, the Director of Catering is outstanding. She sat down with us and patiently went over their different packages and answered all of our questions. She was very sweet and very helpful. I'm very excited and can't wait until my wedding next year.
I went to visit about 15 different venues and when I went to see the Sofitel Miami Hotel, I knew it was where I wanted to have my wedding. It was the largest, most beautiful ballroom available for my amount of people (200). There are no columns in the ballroom which I saw in many other venue options. The view of the water out the windows is gorgeous and Yvonne (catering manager) has been like my own included wedding planner throughout the entire process! She is so helpful and on top of everything. Also, they are renovating the entire hotel and it looks fabulous so far! The brand new glass chandeliers in the ballroom are going to look so elegant. I can't wait to see how great everything turns out for my wedding in 2014!
Our wedding coordinator saw that every detail met our expectations and beyond. From the inception of our planning stage thru the last dance it was a magical journey and one that our friends and family still talk about.
I have to say that out of all the venues we visited, the Sofitel had the best customer service! The catering department is amazing & the food is excellent. The venue is beautiful & very spacious. They offer a wide variety of vendors to choose from. I will definitely recommend this venue to anyone who is having an event here.
We have been planning our wedding with the Sofitel and it has so far been painless. My fiancé and I did not want to go into debt to finance a beautiful reception. The catch is in the Miami area anything decent is very expensive at least that was our experience after researching every venue from the Beach, Grove,Downtown and the Bay.
Until we found the Sofitel now we don't have to compromise elegance and class with overwhelming price.
We received a ton of perks and the Salon is very beautiful if you have ever been to New Orleans you will know what I speak about.
Yvonne is awesome to work with since she knows her stuff like the back of her hand.
The team at Sofitel is beyond amazing. Honestly from beginning to end They went out of their way to customize my package and make us feel special. We re-newed our wedding vows after 10 years of marriage and they made us feel more special this time around then when we originally got married before. They even took a picture of us during our first dance and put it in a frame in our room the night of the wedding. I will never forget this experience! I highly recommend them.
Yvonne has been amazing to work with! She always tries to accommodate her brides to make their day extra special! The service and staff at the Sofitel are exceptional! I would highly recommend this venue to future brides and grooms :)
Yvone is spectacular! She really went out of her way to make sure I had everything I needed. I am working with Erika now to get a block of rooms for my guests and she has been just as wonderful. I am so glad I chose to have my wedding here and I can't wait until the big day!
Yvonne exemplifies great service from the time one meets her. that is what we experienced during the planning of our first son's wedding in 2010. She provides assistance during every step, always available with a smile and just because of Yvonne we have planned our second son's wedding in May 2013 at Sofitel Miami. We also had our nephew's wedding in December 2011 at Sofitel. I recommend her to all our friends also.
I will be getting married in November of 2013 and was originally having my recpetion elsewhere, where promises were not kept and I didn't feel like I was getting the most for my money. I decided to look into the Sofitel and from the moment I walked in I was in love with the place. The icing on the cake was the wonderful Event Director, Yvonne. She greeting me with a warm hello and made sure that I was getting the best of the best. I was invited to a bridal expo at their Hotel where I got to meet the vendors I will be working with for my big day and everyone has exceeded my expectations thus far. Yvonne is always quick to get back to me with any questions or concerns and is simply amazing to work with! After searching through countless venues, Sofitel is the best value for your money and can tailor any needs you may have. I can honestly say, that their service has been exceptional and I can not wait until my BIG day! I know it will exceed any and all expectations!
Erika at the Sofitel was an absolute PERFECT wedding coordinator. she made sure that the whole day ran smoothly, and even though it rained the MINUTE I was about to walk down the aisle in our outdoor ceremony, she handled it quickly and everything turned out beautifully. our family also said they had the BEST food they've ever had, and that it wasn't your typical "wedding" food. it was perfect and I am so grateful for them!!
I spoke wih the catering sales manager and she was prompt and helpful, can't wait till my next event.
It was a great pleasure to have worked with Yvonne and Erika. They were both very professional, detail oriented, and friendly. Every time I would call or email them they would get back to ASAP. The food at the wedding was really good :) All our guests were saying that this is the first wedding that they've been to that food was good.
The sofitel Miami was one of the most reasonable in price when I was looking for a venue for my wedding reception. However, the event coordinator, Samuel Espinoza was not very good at what he does and was never on top of things. After meeting with him multiple times, sending numerous emails and calling him very often he still managed to forget things. I gave him a written list of things I wanted to get donw the day of my event and even drew out a diagram of how I wanted my set up, including how I wanted each table set up. The day of my wedding I was very upset as I walked into the ballroom and realized he had forgot to place my glass charger plates on the tables (which I paid $4.25 for each). He also forgot to put 2 bars for cocktail hour (which I also paid for) this made the line for drinks extremely long since I had 140 guests. He has not even returned my phone calls and I basically lost my $600.00 worth of chargers! NOT WHAT I EXPECTED AT ALL!!!
The day of my wedding everything went smoothly and the Sofitel did a great job. The food was delicious! The only issue I had was with the Filet Mignon as a LOT of my guests switched the last minute for Chicken because they claimed it was too rare. The catering managers were GREAT to work with. We only had a slight issue at the end of the might with the manager on duty that evening who wanted to charge us extra for something we were not aware off, but the catering manager took care of it the following Monday and there were no issues. My wedding was beautiful and Sofitel is a beautiful venue.
The Sofitel was such a beautiful place to have my wedding, rehearsal dinner, and day after breakfast. The food was to die for. They did their best to accomodate all of our needs. Everyone had such a wonderful, as did I.
The Sofitel was a great location for the wedding. The staff is amazing, the service was exceptional and everything was smooth but they need to invest in a new air conditioning unit. If you're going to have your wedding there in the summer, be aware that their ACs aren't top notch.
