Lovely stay, would go back. Friendly staff who happily accommodated our birthday request, a small gesture we really appreciated. The room was clean, and the location was excellent.
The hotel is right on Bourbon Street but the hotel is an oasis of quiet. The staff is always ready to help. Our room was a tad small but well appointed. The bed was wonderful. There are great restaurants all around you. We would definitely stay here again.
The Royal Sonesta is in the heart of the French Quarter, with beautiful balconies overlooking Bourbon Street! With plenty of amazing restaurants within walking distance, and live music in the park right across the street, you won’t need to venture too far to have a fabulous time!
Initial greeting at the door was friendly and told us where to park. Greeted again with luggage and at the front door. Really nice staff! Friendly and helpful.
Everything was great. All the staff were helpful and friendly. Especially Mr. Wade. The property was well maintained and clean. Definitely recommend.

We had a great experience here for our 10 yr wedding anniversary perfect location! Only thing I wish they had was a hot tub/spa!
Feet hurt at the end of the day because it’s literally walking distance to EVERYTHING.
10/10!
It has a very location on Bourbon street, just far enough away from the main craziness, test close enough to a lot of action.
The property is very well maintained and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit to New Orleans.
