It has an excellent location right on burger! Right in the heart of everything good parking nice restaurant

Loved it

Great location and a wonderful oasis in this historic building on Bourbon Street.

Nice hotel

The Royal Sonesta is right in the middle of the action on Bourbon Street. If being in the middle of it all is your thing, the Royal Sonesta is a great choice for you. Wonderful service!

Loved the quiet balcony in the courtyard- lovely place to have coffee in the morning. Great location and appreciated the security especially on the weekend. My second time staying at the Royal Sonesta and we will definitely be back!

Had a nice stay at the Royal Sonesta !

Only had two issues -wanted to know how to get tickets to some day trips ask the Front desk would call us they didn’t call. -check in a breeze but gave us the wrong room number.

Good location in the middle of the French Quarter, so you could walk everywhere.

Had a lovely time at the Sonesta for our company Christmas party.

Construction noise in room next to mine at 6 am every morning . Asked for extra pillow and was told they don’t have any .so cheap they didn’t include bottle of water in the room .. for $300 per night .. very sad hotel

If you want to be on Bourbon St in The French Quarter this is a good choice. Daily room service without having to request it.

Excellent representation of luxury resort accommodations,very friendly staff and great location.

Loud ! Every honk, every rev of an engine, every “boom boom” of some moronic song, every conversation (thin walls). Never stay on bourbon street

Bourbon street is a total pig pen. Trash, people sleeping on the sidewalk. Deplorable sidewalks and road surfaces, bums asking for money. The list goes on.

Was a great spot if you want to be in the center of the action

Someone just randomly came in our hotel room. I notified the hotel, when they contacted me I was at dinner and unable to talk. They said they would reach out again and never did. I wont stay there again, knowing anyone can enter my room at any random time.
