"Great location and facilities"

10.0

The property was close to a lot of things that made walking around easier.

The parking was a bit expensive for valet when you’re already paying for the hotel.

"Lovely hotel you should consider for your next trip!"

8.0

I truly enjoyed my initial experience with The Royal Sonesta due to the warm and welcoming reception we received from Antwonne! He really made us feel special and we loved his energy and enthusiasm! He is such a great asset to have and he should be celebrated and rewarded for his service and dedication! Our room was nice, yet I experienced a little hiccup with the housekeeping that threatened to derail my trip yet they were quick to communicate with me and correct the matter. For this I was truly grateful.

"Friendly, great staff."

7.0

Very friendly staff.

The shower curtain was installed to high so it didn’t drape over the tub. Water went on the floor outside and the curtain blew in while showering making it very awkward having to battle the curtain. We were told new curtains were waiting to be installed. We ordered extra towels to put on the floor.
