The Sofitel is much quieter and less “busy”. During our time there we did not hear any significant noise while in our room. Our room was not connected to any other room so I am not sure if they have connecting rooms. The suite was smaller than the St Regis. It was relatively newish and clean. It is much simpler than the St Regis. It is about the same distance to the White House as the St Regis. Service at the Sofitel appears to be hit or miss. It does not appear to related to their position.
The St Regis is much busier than the Sofitel. So far they have had a wedding, party or corporate event 4/5 nights we have stayed here. They have connecting rooms because our room is connected to another room. The sound proofing is poor. I can hear the adjoining room tv. The other day my wife was using the hair dryer and I could hear it down the hall. Everything is much more opulent but in need of a refurbish. The service is much better overall with the exception of their Butler service.
