The Royal Sonesta was not only a gorgeous hotel, but it's located right in the heart of the party life! more on Yahoo! Travel

If you want a hotel that is accessible for the handicapped this one isn't it. more on insiderpages.com

I'm been there more than once and the Royal Sonesta IS the French Quarter for me-so much that I would choose it again in preference to another hotel. more on TravelPost.com

Convenient to everything New Orleans and one of the nicest hotels around. more on Expedia

Clean, great service, but DO ask for an inside room (facing the courtyard rather than the street) if you're looking for a restful night. more on CitySearch

The hotel was in a great location and the rooms were average. Our problem was the construction and renovation of the hotel. There was constant drilling and hammering all day. We booked our rooms several months in advance and we were ... more on CitySearch
