I would never stay at The Sonesta Hotel again! My experience there was annoying the iron I used to iron my pants stained my pants. Why would they placed an old burned iron in a closet from guest to used. Also I had trouble with the A/C it wasn’t cooling off the room I called them to fix it they did. My husband and I go out for dinner come back room is hot and humid A/C stop working they came back and fix it. Next problem housekeeping didn’t clean my room. When I returned back to the hotel from leaving at 10am for breakfast came by at 4:15pm I had to go make a complaint to management! I don’t recommend anyone to booked this hotel!!

The property is perfectly located in the heart of the French Quarters for easy access to great restaurants, entertainment, tours, and shopping. The staff was excellent, from the doorman (Caleb) to the bellmen (Malcolm and Jacob) and front desk (Bishop and Chantelle)! Some spots could use a bit of an upgrade - e.g., the showers - but I still recommend this Bourbon Street gem.

We booked a Bourbon St King, as we have been to Nola numerous times, but had never stayed right in Bourbon. I cant recommend it more - with some earplugs in, sleep wasnt a problem. The Jazz Playhouse is the arguably the best little place to watch jazz in the city. Desire oyster bar offered great drinks and chargrilled oysters (go see Kiki at the bar!), and Restaurant R'Evolution was the icing on the cake - excellent fine dining experience ...really, you could come to New Orleans and spend the entire trip at the hotel, and still have an excellent time. The bed was also very comfy. I'd highly recommend this place, and I would be hard-pressed to stay anywhere else again!
