My husband and I recently stayed at Royal Sonesta in Chicago. The room was beautiful and very comfortable. The housekeeping staff was very friendly and responsive. We only used the restaurant one for breakfast which was fine. We were greeted each time we entered and left by our favorite people, the reservation desk and valet attendants, who made us feel welcomed and special and answered any questions. Thanks for a memorable experience!
A nice stay with very helpful staff, in particular, Arturo. He was always ready and offering to help.
The housekeeping staff was really nice as were the check in and welcoming staff. That includes the bellmen. Just everyone was helpful.
This was our first trip to Chicago and I was very pleased! The hotel was super nice and clean and the staff was very respectful. Definitely recommend!
Room was exquisite.
