Great Hotel in New Orleans

Whenever we’re in New Orleans, we love staying at this hotel. It’s in a great location and offers a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere. The amenities are excellent—especially the Peacock Bar, the King’s Crown Bar, and the on-site coffee bar, all of which add to the overall experience. It’s consistently a wonderful stay, and we truly look forward to coming back every time.

The picture of the room i booked wasn't accurate and its been a disaster trying to get proper accommodations. Front desk staff very nice, but not enough staff and long lines and wait times. No lotion in bathroom. Definitely not 4 star.

From the moment we arrived, staff were amazing! Our valet driver made sure we knew the cost before choosing that option then happily helped us get a luggage cart and loaded our luggage. The front desk was amazing. Room was clean and we had a view from the 17th floor! Bed was so comfortable. I have lower back issues sometimes and this bed was so nice to sleep in. The hotel had tons of character and we would happily stay again.
