The Haunted Royal Sonesta Hotel
Room 408 Activity
Those sensitive to supernatural disturbances will savor their stay at this luxury establishment. One TripAdvisor reviewer found Room 408 particularly wicked... Yes. I stayed in room 408 this past week. A few minutes after I laid down and turned the light off, the light in my room turned on and then began flashing...maybe 5 or 6 times. The light then stayed on for maybe 10 seconds. The door to the bathroom began to slowly open (I had closed it earlier) until it was wide open. The light went off a few seconds later and then stayed off the rest of the evening. Let's just say I had trouble sleeping that night. What's haunting Austin's historic hotel?
