Rebecca Shaffer, WinField Solutions "Thanks you so much from the bottom of my heart for making our event the best! You are wonderful as is your staff. The food was unbelievable, thanks to Chef Pete."
David Risinger, Aqua Vista Studios "I needed to hold an impromptu meeting during a recent trip to New Orleans and within the hour your office offered us the conference room upstairs — which is not only impressive — but well beyond our expectations. I have been a loyal customer of the Royal Sonesta for years — for reasons you and your staff reinforced that important day. So thank you and your staff from a weary traveller who likes to think of the Sonesta as a very soft landing while I am away from home."
Cathy Zarkin, ABC Television Network "I just wanted to thank you for all of your help with my ABC Family guests at Jazz Fest. Everyone had a wonderful experience and I appreciate all of your hard work."
Joe Graves, Sigma Stretch Film "I wanted to let you know we had a great experience at the Royal Sonesta. The location is second to none and the staff was extremely helpful in every way. The food we had for lunch was as good as any we ate while in New Orleans, You can be sure that I will recommend your hotel to anyone staying in New Orleans."

Margaret Cameron, Professional Landmen's Association of Louisiana "With your customary efficiency and expertise, the luncheon today proved to be another excellent affair. The menu selected was first class. The food was very, very good and beautifully presented. Consensus of opinion was that the menu was excellent. We will be back!"
Donna M. Montero, Administrative Assistant, Miller Brewing Company "Now that the craziness of Mardi Gras is over, I just wanted to take a few minutes to THANK YOU so much. Our event was a total success & that was because of you. Your professionalism, compassion & attention to detail truly shined through. When I was first asked to make this meeting happen, I thought I was being asked to do the impossible. But thanks to both of you & your wonderful staff, the meeting went off without a hitch. Everything was perfect & our distributors had the best time ever. I am positive another hotel could not have done such a superior job. Please pass on my gratitude to all members of your staff. Again, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!"
