Will return for future stays!

This was my second stay at the Royal Sonesta and it was just as nice as I remembered. Really beautiful, well maintained hotel within walking distance of Target Field. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. We had breakfast at Wood + Paddle and it was delicious. The staff were very attentive and wonderful. Overall, I will 100% be staying here again!

Great stay, good location

Check in was fast and friendly. The room was comfortable, with good amenities. The elevator came right away every single time. The location was great for shows at 1st Avenue and just walking around. Close to train and buses as well.
