I splurged on my SPG points to stay here. The front desk staff is extremely friendly, accommodating and some of the best I have encountered in my many SPG stays throughout the globe. This hotel leaves more to be desired. The pool is small, the rooms are small, the decor is cool but feels a bit bare in the rooms.... More

In the Quarter, just steps away from it all. Beautiful, Quiet Relaxing Courtyard with Lots of Comfy Lounge Chairs, a Pool and Wait Service for Food/Beverage. Balcony Room was a Bonus and Allowed us to Not 'Feel' so 'Confined' as one does in most any New Orleans Hotel that is not a free-standing 'High-Rise'. Definitely Recommend this W . .... More

We stayed at the W New Orleans French Quarter for two nights. We received very good service from the bellman, check-in, to room service. We enjoyed martinis at the bar (SoBou)with delicious appetizers. We loved the outdoor space as well, where there was a pool and places to lounge. The location was convenient to all of the French Quarter. Our... More

I stayed in room 2121, half of the window is blocked by the other building. It is always dark in the room. The layout of the room and bathroom is weird, you basically have to turn once you enter the room. The bath tub/faucet is not very clean, the towel has certain smells. I can hear clearly what's going on... More

Stayed 2 nights for a girls weekend. Far enough from Bourbon yet so close to everything. Fabulous service. Got a welcome "punch" drink while checking in. Great way to start. Everyone from valet to bartender to front desk treated us like royalty. Check out SoBou, the restaurant / bar in the hotel. Great drinks & food. Must have: Boudin breakfast... More

Stayed here in December 2012 with partner and family. Very helpful staff, great location and very quiet gym which I used for running. Small but fully equipped for a good workout. Rooms are small and quirky with contemporary decor, blue walls, black carpet, orange bathroom tiles, basically it's 'modern' trendy which works well unless you don't like the style. Rooms... More
