Wonderful hotel and excellent location in the French Quarter. Stayed here 4 years ago. Booked a Petite Room knowing it would be small (hoped to upgrade if it was too small). Although small it was nicely furnished and had all the luxury amenities. Queen bed was very comfortable. We were fortunate to have a view of the cathedral (from 4th floor). No dresser, so we left items in suitcases and on top of bar cabinet, but were able to hang clothes in closet. Since most of our time is spent outside, we were fine with a smaller room. Our room faced the pretty courtyard and there were no noise issues. Being a Select Member is worth it for the extra perks. We should have joined earlier when we stayed at the Omni hotel on the other side of Canal St. This hotel is in the heart of the French Quarter and has more ambience. Right outside the door are restaurants, cafes, museums, and many shops. Few minutes walk to Jackson Square, Café du Monde, Cathedral, Bourbon Street, Canal Street and so much more. The staff is especially helpful and efficient with suggestions for dining and express check out. Don't miss the rooftop with an observation deck and spectacular view.
