We recently had our daughter’s wedding reception at the Royal Sonesta. The reception far exceeded our expectations. Olivia Sage-El worked with us tirelessly from start to finish. She managed all the guest rooms, the menus for lunch and for the reception and was an incredible problem solver all along the way. The chef modified several of the food options to make them gluten free for my daughters and other guests with gluten restrictions. Olivia had a positive, calming attitude and was masterful at coordinating with all my other vendors. The night of the reception Olivia and her team did an amazing job to create a flawless event that left all my guests raving about the delicious food and the beautiful venue. Having the reception at this gorgeous hotel was a great choice. I would highly recommend the Royal Sonesta to anyone who is looking for a perfect venue.
