The staff was amazing, FOR SURE! The rooms were clean. My main wish was that the bathroom had more shelves/counterspace. Oh, and a full length mirror would be cool.

The staff was amazing. The only problem was there was no elevator to go up to the fourth floor or any other floors so make sure you get the bottom floor if you’re not able to walk up the steps, but other than that, it was a great stay.

Loved our stay in the Hotel Royal, best spot in the Quarter. Keep in mind how old this building is when staying. Its not perfect and there are things but in all it was clean, and the staff were so accommodating. I highly recommend this place.

This was a cute hotel. It’s old with no elevators so you have to carry up small halls and narrow stairs but it was nice for the rate and location. The bed was comfortable pillows on. The smallest room is VERY VERY small even for 2 ppl. Enough room for a double bed to walk on one side of bed and then very small bathroom.

his is the review i left on the hotel. "The staff was the best part of the stay. The room however was a disappointment. It was clean and tidy for sure, however for the premium price that was charged you expect a premium product. Here's a few suggestions. 1. A bathroom heater. The tile, although it is nice to look, at it is atrocious to stand on when it is ice cold! 2. You need to make sure the phone's work. You cannot call the front desk. I tried from the room and from my phone. All you get is the reservation line. Thanks but I've already booked my stay can I talk to the help?! 3. Invest in a luxurious bed for goodness sakes you are charging luxurious prices. 4. The bedding, Ditto! Did you get the blankets from the military surplus? For real people. The location is great but step up the game on the rest, or charge less. Your product does not reflect the price. I want to say one more time that the staff was great, this is not a reflection on them."

The staff was amazing. The room.....3 and a half flights up-no elevator-felt like an afterthought. Hey lets turn this utility closet into a room. We hit our heads on the low ceilings and weird angles too many times to count. Parking was ok until we needed to leave and access gate was pad locked and nobody seemed to have the combination, finally after two staff members frantically tried, a 3rd showed up from neighboring hotel and worked the lock, mind you this was 10 in the morning, not some middle of the night request to exit.

Room is small but quaint. Gives you that New Orleans vibe. Perfectly located for walking. Check in person super friendly and helpful. Walked us to our room & helped with our bags. Offered us a bottle of water which we gladly accepted.
