The Jung Hotel and Residences

10/10 Excellent

"I love staying here when I visit NOLA! It's located central to all the activities and the hotel is super comfy and Chic! I celebrated my 50th birthday here with a group of 6 gfs & had a fantastic stay!"

Wyndham New Orleans - French Quarter

6/10 Okay

"The hotel itself is pretty central, sadly the street it is on is incredibly sketchy. As soon as it got dark there were terrifying screams coming from across the street, but the staff did mention at check in that they close the front doors at 9 pm! We definitely found out why. But going back to the staff, very cold and short in their interactions. The room was super humid and musty, the carpet was dirty, and the windows were covered in layers of dirt you could barely see the view. The only saving grace was the bed and pillows, they were surprisingly comfy. All in all, I wouldn’t stay here nor would I recommend it sadly."

The Roosevelt New Orleans, A Waldorf Astoria Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautifully restored gem across Canal Street from the French Quarter. Rooms are top shelf. Bars and restaurants didn’t get the same amount of care. And if there’s a comfortable, private lounge area for guests I couldn’t find it. "

Le Méridien New Orleans

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is a short walk to Riverwalk Mall. There are number a restaurants right outside the hotel. The Caesar Casino is directly across the street. Mother’s restaurant is also across the street the other direction there is usually a line but it moves quickly good for breakfast. The hotel staff is friendly and helpful. "
