Well, the room itself is beautiful. The entrance and the courtyard could use a little spiffing up, especially if you expect it to match the pictures on Expedia. The balcony access needs instructions and for the price there should be a more welcoming lobby that is of the scale that you were charging for the room. Welcome package for top-tier guests, as well as information about surrounding areas and restaurants in the room itself and transportation to and from local establishments that match the quality of the hotel would be beneficial

Not the staffs fault or anything, the building is just very old, but at all hours of the night there is people staying at the hotel screaming, blasting music, slamming doors, and running up and down the stairs. The air conditioner also stopped working our second night which was our last one thankfully and it ended up being 78 degrees in the room which was 30 degrees hotter than outside and the two windows in the room did not help cool the room down at all so we ended up leaving early at like 5am.

A unique historic building. The rooms and furnishings were clean and comfortable. The staff were exceptional, he was polite, friendly and very helpful giving recommendations and suggestions for dining. The location is great for walking to wharf, french market and bourbon street.

There are no words to describe the perfection!

We stayed at two different hotels while in New Orleans both in the French Quarter and both nice but Hotel Royal was by far our favorite. If you're looking for a hotel that captures the French Quarter vibe this is the one you want! We stayed in a king suite with the balcony and hot tub. The room was large and comfortable. The balcony was overlooking Royal Street which I loved! You are able to experience the excitement of the French Quarter while being separate from the crowd. The balcony was probably my favorite part! The courtyard was beautiful and would make a great place for pictures. Staff was friendly and accommodating. I was a little surprised there wasn't a fridge and microwave in our room but everything else was so perfect I couldn't be mad. It was everything I'd hoped it would be and more. It may sound dramatic but having experienced two different hotels I realized staying here made our experience much more enjoyable! Keep in mind there are no elevators and the stairs are a lot so pack accordingly. Nothing too heavy and you don't want to make too many trips like we did. Again so worth it but I would have packed a little better if I'd thought of it.

We loved the style, fresh decor, old quaint French/Spanish style of this French Quarter hotel. Just beautiful. Right in the heart of this area so everything was accessible. No breakfast facilities but really not needed as coffee shop literally over road diagonally and so many places around. Coffee facilities in room were ample for us. Having a fridge in the room we were moved to was a necessary item and I think they should have one in each room. We were moved as we had requested a room with a sofa for our longer stay. Balcony onto the from was a treat to have a drink on and watch the Mardi Gras! Also for morning quiet people watching! Loved this hotel. The staff are absolutely lovely as were all the people we met around New Orleans. What a great holiday we had staying here. Lovely hotel. Lovely memories. Wish it wasn't so far from England, we would return every year if we could!
