Todo lo demás como ...

The room was great , clean and modern. Staff was friendly and helpful. The only and I mean the only thing that was not right is we did not get the room we originally reserved. We reserved a river view and we didn’t get it. But we were too tired from traveling that we didn’t want to bother checking ...

It was really nice and I loved the industrial feel. The beds were super comfortable and clean. However, I could hear other guests, the fire alarm went off twice. The light above one of the sinks didn't work. I also, felt there should've been coffee.

Everything I thought it would be and more! I think highlight of the trip was Frenchmen St. Make sure to go!

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Full of life, character (s) and history. Beautiful French Quarter and Garden District.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

New Orleans is a wonderful place. There are lots of things to see and do and there’s always bourbon street, I highly recommend Frenchman’s though, more civilised.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Only be very careful booking a hotel which looks so attractive. Our holiday was spoilt by the accommodation at St.Pierre Hotel which didn't even have a bar. Never ever go there again. Awful apart from staff.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Take your time to see as much as possible. Get out of the French Quarter to see the wider opportunities the. City has to offer.

4/5 - Good

Great vibe, especially near Halloween!
