Description
Description
The Royal Sonesta brags that it never closed,
providing refuge during and after Katrina, bless its heart.
(Anderson Cooper stayed here!) As one of the classiest hotels in
the Quarter, the contrast between the boisterous hurly-burly of
Bourbon Street and the Sonesta's marbled and chandeliered lobby
couldn't be greater. Inside, all is quiet and gracious, and if your
room faces the courtyard (complete with a large pool), you are in
another world altogether. Big and bustling (a favorite of business
travelers, so it always seems busy), this is considered the only
acceptable, top-flight Bourbon Street hotel, though noise is still
a problem in rooms that face Bourbon (or even the side streets).
But because the Sonesta is so large, reaching nearly to Royal
Street, unless you do have one of those rooms, you won't believe
you are so close to such craziness. Rooms underwent a major
renovation a couple of years ago, adding posher bedspreads and the
like, but the designers miscalculated by including an enormous
combo armoire/TV cabinet -- leaving scant few inches between it and
the end of the king-size beds. The bathrooms gleam with marble and
tile, but don't bring a cat inside if you want to swing it.
Note:
This is the best place in the Quarter to catch
a cab; they line up at the corner.
