Royal Sonesta: the French Quarter Hot Spot

There is so much to do in New Orleans during the holidays.

The winter months are an ideal time to visit as temperatures cool and a festive feel takes over the city—and the Royal Sonesta, located in the heart of the French Quarter, is the ideal place to stay.

The hotel embraces the spirit of the season with this year’s Royal Snownesta celebration, elaborate holiday decor and a roster of festive celebrations.

Experience the beauty of Royal Sonesta’s traditional French Quarter courtyard, which is a lovely spot to soak in the weather while enjoying a coffee or a glass of wine.

Guests can also stroll the beautiful arcade, lined with Christmas trees, participate in a holiday tea, enjoy carols in the lobby and more.

If you didn’t manage to check off everyone on your holiday shopping list, the Royal Sonesta is the perfect place to stay. Its proximity to retail outlets, vintage boutiques and gift stores, which are located less than a block from the hotel, means that travelers can shop for the unique treasures they need to give special gifts to those they love.

Also not far from the hotel is New Orleans City Park, home to the Celebration in the Oaks, which is known as one of the nation’s top lights festivals, drawing in more than 165,000 visitors. The park’s oaks are adorned with hundreds of thousands of lights in breathtaking displays that include the Botanical Garden, Storyland and Carousel Gardens Amusement Park.

The holidays are also a great time to visit the many French Quarter Museums, including the Gallier House, the Beauregard Keyes Historic House & Garden, the New Orleans Jazz Museum, the 1850 House and more. And colder weather means fewer crowds flooding the city’s historic sights, giving travelers space to truly enjoy the magic the Big Easy offers during the holiday season.
