New Orleans’ architecture, outstanding local cuisine and authentic music are ingrained in the culture of one of America’s most interesting cities.
While in the Historic French Quarter at The Royal Sonesta Hotel you can experience it all. The Royal Sonesta Hotel New Orleans is a one–of–a–kind destination for business travelers coming to New Orleans. Located inside the hotel is a new state–of–the–art boardroom that is perfect for business meetings and the Concierge Lounge at the “RClub” which is great for entertaining.
Whether choosing one of the hotel’s deluxe rooms, one of the 35 elegantly appointed private suites, the “RClub” — a hotel within a hotel— or the ultimate experience of the stunning Presidential Suite, the hotel simply is the quintessential New Orleans destination.
With their impressive state–of–the–art boardroom with finely appointed custom–made furnishings, elegant wall and ergonomic leather chairs and high–end custom technology, this meeting space can easily accommodate up to 14 people in a professional setting designed for the serious business traveler.
For additional meeting space or large events, the hotel offers 20 function rooms with a total of 20,000 square feet of function space.
The “RClub” is the Royal Sonesta’s luxurious space on the seventh floor of the hotel with private keyed access, a personalized concierge service, daily breakfast and evening cocktails and complimentary hors d’oeuvres.
Getting Out–and–About:
Located right smack in the middle of the buzzing French Quarter, tourists and locals alike are drawn to the famous Acme Oyster House, a tradition in NOLA since 1910. Sit down at the oyster bar and watch the Shuckin’ pros as they hand–shuck the oysters right in front of you — this is sure to be a delicious and memorable experience!
Looking to escape the hustle and bustle of Bourbon Street and the French Quarter? Well, take a short ride uptown to Magazine Street, an oasis for those looking to expand their idea of the traditional NOLA concept. Here you can find new and impressive restaurants and boutique shops that stay open late and freely pour wine to passing patrons. Take in the gorgeous grand old homes and marvel at the new modern retro localities, which line this Uptown gem. I highly suggest moseying along this tree–lined street on your day off.
To wind down after a busy day, sit down to Irvin Mayfield’s Jazz Playhouse at the Royal Sonesta. Since opening in March 2009, the Playhouse has been a popular destination for both locals and visitors seeking an authentic jazz music experience. Under the artistic direction of Grammy Nominated, Billboard Award winning jazz trumpeter, Irvin Mayfield, the elegant club presents outstanding jazz legends of today and a musical menu of young emerging jazz artists just destined for stardom tomorrow.
