  • Comfort of room and friendliness of staff.
  • One of two telephones in room did not work and was not repaired. Face towel holder was inconveniently located and noisy.

“A luxurious post-modern hotel in the New Orleans business district and just across Canal Street from the historic French Quarter. Beautiful, well-appointed rooms with comfortable beds. Parking available at prevailing local daily rates with in-and-out privileges. Internet access, but at charge. Because of construction in area, pedestrian access can be somewhat difficult. Fitness center has aerobic machines and swimming pool, but no sauna. Bar area was rented out for noisy private party on one of my two nights.”

  • Great linen.
  • Outdoor pool was dirty we would not go in.

“Nice hotel, nice staff but they could not follow simple requests like needing a light bulb replaced, asked four time over three days and it was never replaced. Small room with no arm chair only a desk chair.”

  • Great location in a very beautiful building.
  • The AC in our room was poorly designed; it never cooled the entire room.

“Great hotel, the buildings AC system has problems. We ran the AC at 68 the whole time and our room we were still warm while sleeping. The room was a bit muggy the whole time, too. They forgot to put shampoo in the bathroom the first night, and they forgot toilet paper on another night.”

  • I liked the design of the lobby and the cool jazzy feel of the entrance of the hotel.
  • I did not like the picture of a tomb inside my bathroom and I did not like the fact that my hotel room did not have a bathtub just a stand in shower.

“The hotel itself stands true to the reputation of the Marriott chain. Only issues I had with the hotel was the high price you had to pay for valet parking. The bellman's attitude upon entrance of the hotel was a little damper. The stain on the floor room 1412 is terrible.”

  • Close to Canal Street.
  • TV was not in front of the bed. It was in a corner.

“We booked a Deluxe King room. When we got to our room we were at first delighted until we got actually in the door. The bathroom was the best part of the entire room. The bed was a Queen and not at all comfortable. The air was not great. We got hot quick. Was barely enough room in front of the bed to walk around. Nice view. Big desk that didn't belong. TV was not in a good place. You couldn't watch TV comfortably from your bed. I would have rather had a bed in the bathroom.”

  • Excellent location, big bathrooms.
  • One of the telephones in my room didn't work.

“A very nice hotel in a great location. Two blocks from French Quarter but on a quiet business street. Rooms were fairly large and nicely furnished. Staff was friendly. Valet parking is high priced at $28 per night. The restaurant was also expensive for breakfast, but we found a very inexpensive dive (Dixie Gyro) just around the corner that had a nice breakfast for $6. Some of the reviews I read before the trip mentioned construction in the lobby but we didn't see any construction during our stay.”

  • Very nice decor and Starbucks in hotel.
  • Heater and several outlets not working but repaired while we were there.

“Very nice decor in hotel. Customer service was excellent. Hotel seemed to be still under some construction since electrical amenities were not properly working. Hotel room was a bit small and could not accommodate the tray when we ordered room service. We had to eat sitting on the bed. There were no chairs to sit and comfortably enjoy our dinner.”

  • Staff was wonderful, preformed without having to ask, how a 4 star should be.
  • Parking was a little high, could of parked a block over for $8 less a night

“Hotel staff was wonderful, place is very modern and up to date. The rooms are very good size. We have stayed at other 4 stars downtown and for convenience you can not beat this hotel. I would highly recommend over the other 4 stars.”

  • Convenient, clean and friendly.
  • Rooms small, bathroom tiny, little room for clothing in drawers.

“It's Okay but not four star or the quality of the other hotels on the list. This is a definitely a step down.”

  • Friendly staff and nice lobby setting.
  • This was NOT a 4-star room. Small room; Double bed looked more like twin and a half. Nice bath, but no tub.

“The staff was friendly and the lobby very urban chic, but definitely not 4 star and the room was 2-1/2 at best.”

  • The valet had great service.
  • The sheets had hair and dirty spots in them when we arrived.

“We were not at all impressed with this hotel. There was only one restaurant open at night within walking distance, and it was not casual and was very expensive. This was not a place for children. The room was the smallest room we have ever stayed in. When we arrived, the sheets on the bed were full of hair and were dirty. The lady came to change them, but did not change the pillowcases, so we did not have pillows to use. The sheets were paper thin and there was not a mattress pad on the bed. I did not feel clean the entire weekend. The whole experience was disappointing.”

“We were traveling with 4 children under 12years, for 1 overnight, it was a very positive experience. Would always reach for a pool if possible with little/young children.”
