We enjoyed our girls trip at the Ryder Hotel. The staff was friendly. Addy at Little Palm was wonderful! We would definitely stay here again. Great location!

The property and room were very clean. The restaurant and bar had great options. Overall, we were underwhelmed for the price though. The furniture and decor were cheap throughout the hotel, the phone in the room didn’t work and it was difficult to get a hold of the front desk using our cell phones for help getting an iron to the room. Housekeeping came to our door at 8:50 AM on a Saturday and after telling them we’d be out of the room shortly they never came back to clean the room.

They kept charging my card random additional holds each night, still haven’t gone away like they said they would. The pool charges were disgusting. Great location. Shower didn’t drain properly and was not up to par. Cute aesthetic. Room was pretty clean.

The rooms are comfy and not fancy. We made the mistake of not checking up on what room we’d be in and they put us in one facing the bar/restaurant. But the kindly switched us to one facing the street, which provides light and less noise. The pool and bar and restaurant are great and nice to have a cafe there as well. Best feature is the location. Walking distance to everything and in the historic district.

Super cute hotel in an excellent location. Could walk to many different places. It’s right by King street which was really nice. We loved the rooftop pool/bar area. Overall amazing vibes and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!!

Located close to the downtown area and the French Quarter. Very walkable to these areas. Very nice pool with bar service. The on-site restaurant was nice; the food was excellent. The place is not too pricey.

Hotel was laid out odd... Little walk if you book a hotel room in the 40s. Other than that it was perfect. Small pool great bar and restaurant. Excellent service. Quiet. great location to walk for anything from food to shopping.

Beautiful property, great location, the only negative is that there are lots of hidden fees that the front desk doesn’t disclose. I was told $100 a day for incidentals that would be returned to me if everything was ok at checkout. Turns out they also have daily charges of $35/day plus daily tax of $10 plus another $4 for some other reason. So if you have a car parked there’s a charge for that too. You ended up paying easily like 400-500 dollars a night for this hotel in the end.
