Not as good as they once were
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 8/9/05
We used to love staying at the Royal Sonesta but our most recent visit was very discouraging. Upon arrival we were advised that our reservation was entered for only one room instead of the two rooms we clearly requested. Then we were "offered" two rooms at the "sister" hotel: Chateau Sonesta. We stayed at the Chateau Sonesta, but it should be considered the ugly stepsister (at best). It was hot, damp and noisy and there was no service was in the restaurant. We will not be back at either Sonesta.
