Place was great! Staff was awesome! Unfortunately there seemed to be a confusion when the time came to check out. We paid extra to have late check out. They gave us until 3pm. But day of we got calls from house keeping and Security came to our door asking when can we could check out. It was annoying. Over all through great place and great location. We had a great time!!
While the Royal Sonesta is directly on Bourbon St, it feels like a world away once you walk in the doors. The reception area is spacious and well appointed, staff friendly and helpful, and the rooms comfortable and clean. My room was overlooking a side street and was one room away from bourbon st and while I did hear some noise at night it was not disruptive to sleep at all! The large rooftop patio and pool was an oasis on the hot afternoons. Highly recommend.
