Hampton Inn & Suites New Orleans-Convention Center

Arts-Warehouse New Orleans|0.21km from New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center
I'm trying to be optimistic by giving this property an ”Average” rating, but unfortunately my review is going to be very reminiscent of the other latest review on this hotel. While I think it's commendable that the hotel is willing to help displaced people (possibly from the most recent hurricane), it would have been nice to know ahead of time. as we would have chosen a different option to stay at. Typically Hampton Inns are consistent in their atmosphere and reputation, but with the questionable people loitering in and around the property, it just wasn't an experience we were willing to pay for. In addition, because of all these people who were temporarily living at the hotel (possibly through FEMA or the Red Cross), their cars stayed parked in the hotel's parking garage all the time. This left absolutely no room for our car. When I asked the front desk gal abut other possible parking options, she stated that unfortunately there wasn't any additional parking associated with the property, so she said we were on our own as far as finding a spot wherever we could, even if it was a mile or more away. Long story short, we felt like we couldn't leave the hotel if we actually found a spot to park in, for fear of not having one when we came back (in addition, let me tell you, you need some mad parking skills to maneuver though this parking garage). Finally, seeing people walking around with their alcohol throughout the garage was unsettling too. We were supposed to stay at the hotel 4 nights, but decided to check out early and move to another propertyl due to questionable people staying in and around the building/parking lot, but most of all because of the lack of parking options for a paying guest. I feel for the hotel staff because I'm guessing the entire situation is out of their hands, but as far as it being the Hampton Inn experience you're used to, it is not (at least not right now).

Loews New Orleans Hotel
4.3/5101 Reviews
Downtown New Orleans
Firstly the best thing about this hotel is the people - from the minute we arrived, they were welcoming and friendly. The concierge was so helpful in booking trips for us along with other staff who suggested restaurants, directions etc. We chose breakfast in the hotel on one day which was OK and so decided to have breakfast another day as we were leaving on a trip and it seemed the obvious option; turns out they don't do breakfasts everyday which was not well advertised - and a little strange!! Anyway one of the cleaners clearly saw our confusion so suggested ”Mothers” diner across the road which was brilliant actually - the best pancakes we had in our entire trip in the States. Likewise the bar tender at the bar/restaurant is excellent. The only downside was that the hotel itself is a little tired and could do with some refurbishment and updating. Our room was lovely in terms of size and the bed was really comfy but some of the furniture was a little tarnished, the carpet somewhat dirty and the walls could do with a paint. But other than that, a good stay.
The Mercantile Hotel

We fell in love with this hotel. The staff were all very friendly and the hotel was clean. Our room was amazing and huge with a sitting area that had a couch, chair, desk, mini bar with a sink and a TV. We had a separate bedroom with a super comfortable king size bed and plenty of luggage storage space. The bathroom was crazy huge and spotless. They have an interactive system for requesting lines or basically any need you may have. They also have a complementary breakfast, like a real breakfast, with scrambled eggs, sausage links and breakfast potatoes that was all delicious. They had a nice selection of bagels, breads and muffins as well. This is a great, funky, cool hotel and we highly recommend it.
Courtyard New Orleans Warehouse Arts District
4/5102 Reviews
Arts-Warehouse
This was a nice base for our business meetings (off site) - plenty of on-site amenities and numerous walkable options. The room was quiet - I had a balcony room over the pool on the fourth floor. If the pool was busier it might be a but noisy for the second floor (opens to the pool) but my experience was quiet. The only complaint I have is not with this property specifically, but with certain Marriott hotels. As many hotels have done, Marriott has transitioned to the pump bottles on the wall in the shower. This is fine, but the font size and contrast are terrible when you are trying to distinguish shampoo from body wash. Even with my glasses I had to get close, and without them it's hopeless. Other hotels have contrasting colors and larger fonts - that's really the only issue I had with my stay.
