Spent four nights in this old coffee warehouse. The walls exposed the old town bricks and charm of New Orleans. Was disappointed in the staff's attitude to the guests however, the "continental Breakfast," left MUCH to be desired. Once they run out of anything, you're told "That's all we have!" Nothing more came out! Coffee was NOT served until 7:00... More

Please do not book a room here. I have stayed in a 40$ Motel and it was 10 times better than Ambassador. Stay is rude, when we arrived (from New York (two flights+lay over ~3pm), they said that no room was available until 4pm (this inspite of the fact that they charged me 1 month in advance).

A great four star hotel basically accross the street from Harrah's Casino, and a 10 minute stroll to Bourbon Street. Ask for a room with the exposed brick walls, as this is a converted warehouse, otherwise you will get a standqard room, which is very nice, but without the ambience. They serve a very basic continental breakfast, and gave me... More

The work out room is perfect. The computer room was helpful. The concierge lady is super nice that lives by the point. The rooms are nice. Great value and super clean and comfy. The front desk lady made me feel confident about my reservation that was made over the internet.
