Seven Sofitel Hotels Honored in Travel + Leisure Magazine's 2007 'T + L 500: The World's Best Hotels'

Dallas, TX (PRWeb) January 31, 2007 -- According to the editors of Travel + Leisure magazine, seven out of 500 of the world's best hotels are Sofitels, as named in the publication's annual "T + L 500: The World's Best Hotels" issue.
