We stayed at the Royal Sonesta for two days. The hotel is beautiful and the front desk staff were always so polite. The only person we weren’t fond of was the security guard. We walked out of the hotel and didn’t know which way to go, so we asked him. He was standing at the door so we assumed he would be polite and answer our question. But he had a little attitude so we let him be. We weren’t going to let him ruin our trip. Any way, our room was clean, comfortable and the balcony was nice to sit out on and drink while people watching. I would suggest bringing ear plugs when going to bed because it’s so loud at night with people partying until 4 to 5 AM. If you are a light sleeper i would also suggest getting a room at the back of the building because you’ll get no sleep. The hotel is also walkable to everything. We walked to Jackson Square one morning. It seemed far on the map but it wasn’t. Especially since you’ll have so many shops to look into along the way. We also walked to the casino at night. It was a short distance and safe. All in all we had a great stay.

This Hotel is in the perfect spot on Bourbon street! We had an amazing room walked right straight out to the pool. Was very quiet, you could not hear a thing from Bourbon street. It is a beautiful and very clean Hotel. The doorman Calib was such a doll. Courteous always with a welcoming greeting everytime you left and returned. All the staff was great as well. We will always use Royal Sonesta Hotels as our choice of stay.

It was an amazing stay and amazing staff I complaints at all. Everything is in walking distance right out the front door from food to souvenir shops to your preferred drink. However after 1 am it is very hard to get ahold of and desk service by phone. The security at the hotel is also on point. The parking garage is a bit expensive if I had anything to possibly complain about. I would recommend the hotel over any other for sure.
