Royal Sonesta Hotel

Fodor's Review:

Step from the revelry of Bourbon Street into the marble elegance of this renowned hotel's lobby, where lush plants enhance a cool, serene atmosphere. Most guest rooms are of average size, furnished with light-color reproduction antiques: many have French doors that open onto balconies or patios. Rooms facing Bourbon Street are noisy, but most are sufficiently soundproof. One restaurant, Begue's, is a local gem. The charming Desire Oyster Bar on the lobby level faces Bourbon Street and serves local seafood delicacies.
