The Accor hotel chain is actually best known for its hotels in the lower-price segment, such as the Ibis hotels. Nevertheless, Accor has been expanding its 5-star portfolio in recent years, with brands such as Raffles and Fairmont. However, they have already been running the Sofitel hotels for a long time, which they took over in 1975. From their over 75 Sofitels, we have found the 30 cheapest.
However, we omitted the Sofitels in China as they would have inflated this list unnecessarily without really being interesting. Instead, we listed the 5 cheapest Sofitels of China separately. Also, we do not claim that these hotels consistently charge the listed price on every date. Furthermore, there may be another hotel that we missed, as it may have been more expensive on each of the dates checked. Last but not least, be aware that the lowest price is usually found in the off-season. That may be fine for a hotel in Europe, but it can also mean having to endure terrible heat, e.g. in the Middle East.
Enough with the explanations. Here is the list:
- Sofitel Macau at Ponte 16, Macau, starting at €97
- Sofitel Abu Dhabi Corniche, UAE, starting at €99
- Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara, Malaysia, starting at €102
- Sofitel Warsaw Victoria, Poland, starting at €107
- Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile, Egypt, starting at €111
- Sofitel Saigon Plaza, Vietnam, starting at €128
- Sofitel Casablanca Tour Blanche, Morocco, starting at €134
- Sofitel Tamuda Bay Beach and Spa, Morocco, starting at €136
- Sofitel Al Khobar The Corniche, Saudi Arabia, starting at €137
- Sofitel Golfe d’Ajaccio Thalassa sea & spa, France, starting at €139
- Sofitel Algiers Hamma Garden, Algeria, starting at €146
- Sofitel Cairo Nile El Gezirah, Egypt, starting at €148
- Sofitel Grand Sopot, Poland, starting at €154
- Sofitel London Heathrow, United Kingdom, starting at €157
- Sofitel Biarritz Le Miramar Thalassa Sea & Spa, France, starting at €159
For those open to travelling to lesser-known cities in China, these are the 5 cheapest Sofitels in China:
- Sofitel Harbin, starting at €56
- Sofitel Xining, starting at €58
- Sofitel Lianyungang Suning, starting at €60
- Sofitel Zhengzhou International, starting at €63
- Sofitel Xian on Renmin Square, starting at €64

Editor’s Note: While America is completely missing, it’s nice to finally have one of these lists feature quite a few cities in Europe. Furthermore, the prices in China are insanely low. And my personal experience tells me that visiting 2nd-tier cities in China is far more attractive than it sounds. Add 5-star hotels for under €65 to the equation, and I’m packing my luggage.
