Where is the Best Luxury Hotel in New Orleans, Louisiana?
Considering this is the “club” level for the Ritz, we expected great things. We had previously stayed at the regular Ritz in New Orleans so we expected an amazing experience by staying at the Maison Orleans. POSITIVESThe location is great! The Ritz also offers their own shuttle for Jazzfest – totally worth it (you don’t need to be a guest). The five meal presentations were nice but not much selection for a vegetarian and really not needed since there are many amazing restaurants in the city. Complimentary beverages were probably the best part. The lemonade was great (but in a cute yet unpractical dispenser). The jar of sweets was always available and very tasty. NEGATIVES The room was much smaller than the room we had at the regular Ritz. Also, the bathroom was not practical for anyone shorter than 5’5″. We were very disappointed with the excessive waste. It wouldn’t take much for these hotels to be a little “greener”… reusing towels should at least be an option and how about s
i stayed at the hotel during my friend’s gradution in May! i travel a lot and stay in many different hotels! i can easily put InterContinental New Orleans on the top of the list! Service was unbelievable! room was spacious and clean! and that restaurant Veranda!oMG, Gumbo was the best i have ever had! stay there! it worth every penny i spent!
We stayed at the Omni Royal Orleans over Halloween Weekend 2009. Besides being a perfect French Quarter location (as mentioned by other reviews), and a great value, the staff and service were great. Front desk, housekeeping, concierge, bartenders, and porters all exemplified a professional image and were genuinely pleased to have us as their guests. We left a generous tip…
Having previously dined at the renamed New Orleans Grill for their Dom Perignon Sunday brunch, my wife and I were eagerly anticipating our first dinner at the famed New Orleans restaurant. What a huge disappointment in the food, service, and atmosphere even though, as an AMEX Centurion card holder, the meal was free! There are much better restaurants in New Orleans to spend your money on that provide better food, service, and ambiance for less money.
