Rough Guide Star
"Though rooms in the modern Opera Wing exude international-class luxury, they lack the old-world charm of the original building, with its wooden floorboards and louvred shutters."
DK Eyewitness "The Sofitel Legend Metrople restored to its original splendor, is the one of the most atmospheric hotels in the city."
