Staying at this hotel was an absolute joy. The location is perfect for exploring the city and the rooms are huge and spotless. While the room layout could have been better for luggage space, the overall experience was fantastic. The service was top-notch, with incredibly caring staff who made us feel like family. The hotel's central location allowed us to walk everywhere and enjoy the lively atmosphere of Bourbon Street. The dining options were delicious, but there were some delays in the morning service. The facilities were great overall, making our stay comfortable and enjoyable.

The hotel is decent overall with some room for improvement. The rooms had a noticeable odor upon entering and were only serviced upon request, though they were fine overall. The location is perfect for exploring Bourbon Street without being disturbed by noise. The dining options were limited and a bit pricey, but the service was friendly and responsive.

Despite being located right on Bourbon St, the rooms were surprisingly quiet and clean with a nice pool view. The service overall was excellent, especially from Philip in the restaurant who went above and beyond. The location is ideal for exploring the French Quarter, though the closeness to the craziness of Bourbon St could be overwhelming. Dining options were a bit expensive but worth it for the convenience. The facilities were well-kept and enjoyable.

Despite being in the middle of the French Quarter, the hotel was sparkling clean with perfectly white and ironed sheets, a clean bathroom, plenty of fresh towels, and upscale products. The room was on the ground floor with a busy street outside, but it was very clean and had the appropriate amount of furniture. The service was excellent, with staff going above and beyond to be accommodating to our needs. The location was great, next to Jackson Square and Bourbon Street but away from the craziness. The dining experience was not fantastic and a bit overpriced. The facilities were in good condition overall.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is fantastic, just a stone's throw from Jackson Square and right in the heart of Bourbon Street, making it perfect for exploring New Orleans. The service was top-notch, with staff going above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. However, the noise from the ballroom early in the morning and the lack of amenity replacements on certain days were a bit bothersome.

The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of the French Quarter, offering a peaceful oasis just off Bourbon Street. The rooms are spacious and easily accommodated our group of four, although there was a lingering old stench. The service was exemplary, with extra friendly and helpful staff, even surprising us with a complimentary bottle of champagne. The dining options were limited but reasonably priced. The central location couldn't have been better for exploring the lively jazz scene and famous attractions. However, there were some maintenance issues with the rooms that impacted our experience.

The hotel was a good deal with a discounted rate since booked in August. The room, although poolside, had some noise issues and limited window access. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. The central location allowed for easy exploration of the French Quarter, but noise from Bourbon Street disrupted sleep. The dining options were a bit overpriced.

I dropped off our luggage and walked the French Quarter from this hotel, which turned out to have a shared balcony with two other rooms. The service here was excellent and extremely helpful, especially when they learned we were looking to relive our honeymoon of 50 years ago. The location is perfect for a New Orleans visit, close to everything but far enough away from the noise to maintain a quiet ambiance. While the hotel dining was good, I did find it unexpected to have to pay for paper cups with such a high price tag on the dining experience.
