The Sofitel is superb, staff are absolutely amazing, you can choose to have breakfast in the main restaurant instead of the lounge and that's absolutely fantastic. Overall a great experience, only downside is that Nusa Dua is a bit boring (nothing else to see / do in the area).
The Pullman is not in the same league as the Sofitel and has no lounge - having said that it's a nice property and right in the middle of the action.
I stayed at both. Totally agree with you. But I personally think the service in Sofitel which should be 5 stars hotel is not very good.
I was Gold at time, they asked me to check in through GRO, but I did not feel anything personal. Very mechanics and no upgrade at all.
Also personally I like Pullman location (Kuta/Legian) compare to Sofitel (Nusa Dua).
If you go for relaxation and spend a lot of time in the hotel, go to Sofitel. But if you want to be closer to happening place Pullman is better.
Anyone has stayed in The Kuta Beach Heritage Hotel Bali - Managed by Accor? Location is good.
