My clients recommended staying here because of the discounted rates I could obtain. Paying only $130 a night for a room with a great view is hard to beat. But I think I would be willing to pay more for the room. The north facing side of the hotel has spectacular views of the bend in the Mississippi River and... more

Ok, after reading all the reviews for many weeks beforehand, my husband and I almost cancelled. SO GLAD WE DIDN"T!!! We are SPG members and always have high expectations, and these met and excedded them. Room was beautiful, amazing view of city and river, staff was wonderful. We tipped the maid every morning and always had "extras". We stay in... more

I was there for six months for a contract position. I would stay 10 days and come home for four days. This place provided great amenities and the staff was absolutely wonderful. I was traveling alone for most of the time and they kept an eye on me. If I wasn't back in the Hotel by 10 pm the doorman... more

The Westin New Orleans Canal Place is in an awesome location right next to the French Quarter, Audubon Aquarium, Audubon Insectarium, Harrah's Casino, etc. It also sits on top of the Canal Place shopping mall. The room was not spectacular, but it was fine. Valet parking is available ($36 per day during our stay), but we opted for the "self-park"... more

Full price online: $249/night. I paid $130 on priceline.com. For what I paid, it is OK only due to the proximity to the French Quarter. BUT I pity anyone else paying full price because this is not typical Westin quality. Bags of laundry lying out in the hallways. No warmth or atmosphere. Plain rooms. Although spacious, the bath drain was... more

Paid about $130 per night for a Saturday to Tuesday trip to this hotel using Hotwire. The hotel is clean and has nice common areas and bathrooms. Very comfortable beds. There were no surprises (like health club fees) at checkout. Good location opposite Harrah's Casino and all French Quarter accessible on foot. The price was comparable to many lesser hotels... more

As the other posters have said, the location is really ideal (close to, but not in, the French Quarter), and the views of the river and French Quarter are phenomenal. The only drawback with the location is that there are tram/train tracks very close to the hotel - you can't hear the trams that use two of the three tracks,... more

The Westin Hotel Canal Place is located on the Mississippi River on the edge of the French Quarter, just a short walk to Jackson Square and Bourbon Street. Staying here gave us a better, more expansive perspective of the city, I think, than a hotel on one of the interior streets of the city. We had great river and city... more

Westin Canal Place cannot be beat for its location on Canal St. & riverfront. Harrah's, riverfront trolley, Aquarium, French Quarter, Saks Fifth Ave. and Jackson Square are all close. The room decor, plush linens, spa bath products and comfy bed are all tried and true Westin quality. more
