Was here for four nights to watch NFL game. Prime location for all activities on Borboun Street. I had room facing onto Borboun Street which was loud throughout Friday, Saturday and Sunday night right through to 5am. Bit quieter on Monday. If you want quiet, request a room at back of the hotel. Small coffee shop in hotel.. very overpriced. $5.50 for a bottle of water. Although that is cheaper than the extortionate price you are charged if taking one from the room. $8 Swimming pool was quiet and clean.

Perfect 4 night stay. Outstanding staff, exceptionally clean rooms and public areas. Great location in the active Bourbon St area, walking distance to many restaurants including GW Finns and Arnauds both less than a block away and Brennans a couple blocks away. Excellent casual and upscale restaurants in the hotel. Outdoor pool in the hotel is excellently maintained.

The location was very good and service was excellent but in the room the sink and the bathtub the water was not draining and we saw a mouse in the room so we checked out early.

Sitting poolside at the Royal Sonesta Where to start? Well, this is my third stay here and the only place I'll stay going forward . First visit was with Bestie and other two have been with Hubs. Every trip was great. The hotel is beautiful and our suites have been quiet, even though the hotel is right on Bourbon Street. Every employee we've encountered has been friendly, gracious, and helpful. One thing I really appreciate is as a non-drinker, I really appreciated the mocktails listing on the Jazz Playhouse menu. Side note - Brassaholics and The Nayo Jones Experience are both excellent and highly recommended shows. The Oasis Pool bartenders made me excellent virgin hurricanes and mojits. Last but definitely not least, shout out to Miss Ruthie at Desire. She's been there for 40+ years, embodies everything I love about the spirit of New Orleans and a key reason why it remains my favorite city. Southern charm and personality at its absolute finest!

All I can say is, we will return on your next trip. Don't be scare to stay on Bourbon Street. This hotel is safe and you can't hear any of the outside fun when you are in your room. I love the dining experience as there are many options at the Royal Sonesta. PJ's coffee had great service and good coffee. The pool area was clean even though it was a hectic Labor Day weekend. LOVED the Jazz Club. Went two times as the entertainment was great. The mattress was super comfortable making sleeping enjoyable. The pillows were perfect. Unfortunately, our room was near the elevator leaving us subject to late night/early morning party folks talking a bit too loud after their night of carousing. The entire staff were extremely pleasant and made our trip that much enjoyable. We were sorry to check out but will be happy to return at another time.
