“The Royal Sonesta has a prime spot right on Bourbon Street, placing you in the middle of New Orleans' vibrant nightlife and cultural scene, plus it is home to The Jazz Playhouse. I think the location makes up for some issues I read about the Bourbon street-facing balconies and early closing of the pool bar. Overall, I'd recommend this hotel.”
