Always an excellent stay at The Royal Sonesta. Great place to stay near the Galleria area in Houston. I went for work. Breakfast buffet does need improvement. Bar menu has good menu and extra large portions.
I will definitely return.
The staff was professional and warm. They made me feel special. I was here last month as well.
I came back. And I'll be back next trip to Houston.
Thanks
Our room was spotless, smelled great, view was amazing and the staff that checked us in is top tier. Valet workers were AMAZING!!! This is where we stay every time we re in Houston.
Such a beautiful hotel! The woman who helped us check in was so nice and helpful. We told her it was our anniversary and she sent us chocolates and fruit to our room for free with a happy anniversary note. Amazing service. Or heater wasn’t working and they sent someone to fix it immediately.
