This was my first trip to the USA. The Royal Sonesta Hotel hosted me as if I had been at home. The atmosphere is amazing. The attitude of a staff is very good and kind. People care about you. What’s important to mention is the location of the Hotel. It’s located almost in the heart of Washington D.C. It gives a possibility to reach out any sights, bus stops, etc. I can’t but mention the food in the restaurant Bistro (French cuisine). The staff is magnificent! Special shout out for Madam Liliet and Mr. Joe from Bistro!

We had a decent experience. Leilet at the front desk was very helpful the whole time! Room service was amazing and timely. My main complaint is the cost of the parking here. I saved money by using the meter when the hotel has a garage. Whether you do valet or self pay, it’s way too expensive. I believe that paying guests deserve better than that.

While I felt catfished by the DC Cherry blossoms, I definitely didn’t feel catfished by Royal Sonesta, DC. Outstanding customer service from the time we checked in until we left. Very attentive. We loved the decor, the rooms were wonderful. I loved that there were no carpets and high ceilings. Bathrooms were nice and I loved the attention to detail regarding things like the makeup washcloth. The restaurant attached was delicious! I would come back for that too. There was a gentleman in the restaurant, maybe a manager, he had high energy and was constantly making sure everyone was ok. Give him a raise. He was awesome! Alecc (sp) at the front desk was awesome! Go Birds! Lol Sonesta, great job!

I loved the Royal Sonesta. The rooms are beautiful, quiet and large. Staff was attentive and personable. We ate breakfast in the Bistro Du Jour restaurant. Delicious. Will visit again.

There is no business center. No printer. They give you a $12 credit for restaurant that purchases nothing. It’s not a cheap place but they are nickel and diming.
