Royal Sonesta Hotel New Orleans 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 reproduction antiques; many have French doors that open to balconies or patios. Rooms facing Bourbon Street are noisy, but most are sufficiently soundproof. Begue's Restaurant is locally beloved and presents one of the city's best Sunday buffet brunches; the charming Desire Oyster Bar, on the lobby level, faces Bourbon Street and serves local seafood delicacies.

    I have stayed at the Royal Sonesta twice and look forward to my next visit. The staff is amazing, the rooms comfortable and the food is great (love Begue's). You couldn't ask for a better location.
