From the welcoming parking valets, the Bell Staff, Front Desk and Housekeeping, the Royal Sonesta treats you right. Breakfast was great and the Roaring Fork is one of the best dining experiences in Austin!
We had a wonderful stay. We reserved two queens but when we got to the hotel, they informed us they had given all those away. They moved us to a large, well equipped queen with a fold out (that was the most comfortable sofa bed I’ve ever slept in). I would definitely stay here again.

Any rejection is manually checked and, if maintained, notified to the reviewer by email with reasons. We do not otherwise process changes, nor reviewer contact. We de-list reviews after 4 years, other than for properties having a non-significant number of reviews.
