All of the staff was super friendly. Door man, front desk and valets were highlights of the stay. Had the Bourbon balcony and although I didn’t stay out super late the outside noise didn’t make it impossible to fall asleep. Parking is easy to find, just put the hotel address in google maps and stay on Conti until you pass the hotel then look to your right. Christmas decorations were amazing, lots of photo opportunities. Everyone greeted my dog and there’s some natural green space for dogs about a 10 minute walk away.

Right on bourbon street, which makes it loud in the evening. Shower doesn’t get hot and there are very strange noises from the ducting. Loud enough to wake a light sleeper. Lobby is nice. Location is convenient. But wouldn’t stay again.

Location! Customer service!
Wonderful costumer service! All employees were so friendly! Alberto at Desire Oyster bar was the best! Housekeeping service the room even though we left our room rather late each day. Doormen were delight! Only negative was all the construction on Bourbon street but that was of no fault of the hotel.

My first time visiting New Orleans was amazing, especially when staying at the Royal Sonesta! Everything I needed was either in the hotel or in walking distance. Perfect location for exciting activities or just lounging by the poolside or in the jazz lounge! Thank you.⚜️

The road the hotel is on is blocked off alot of the time, so when we flew in, in the evening the Uber dropped us around the corner. We walked around thinking it was just a few meters but one of the buskers pointed us down the street so we had to wheel ags dodging lots of people. Check in was bad. They didn't give us any information that we found out about a few days later. e.g the credit to use in the food facilities and we lost out on 2 days as they wouldn't do anything about it. We heard other guests talking and asked a couple of days later, but when reception did explain, they did not say the credit was not available for the last day, which we only found when we were billed. The room was ok but there were no fluffy robes or slippers as advertised and toiletries were hit and miss. We were close to or above the jazz playhouse so that was noise until around 10.00 but ok since most of the time we were out. As with most hotels the sockets were not in a great place if you wanted to use an ironing board. Location was ok but a shock to the system when you got out onto Bourbon street - very loud, loads of people walking up and down and opposite a gentlemans club. Cafe and dinner were good, Restaurant was totally over priced. We didn't use the pool area as there were no umbrellas/shade unless you were at the bar....and it was very confusing as to how to get out there. One door said don't use and looked like a fire exit but seemed the only way out. Doorstaff were wonderful.
