My new favorite hotel, convenient for walking places, clean, comfy, check in was quick, room was clean, shower was great, towels were big and comfy, coffee was quick and delicious , the peacock room is so cute and all of the food was so so good. Black out curtains made it nice and dark. A little bit of street noise but didn’t keep us awake. The hotel is pet friendly and we loved petting all the 4 legged guest. We will be back for sure.

Room was nice, a little worn but fine - view was great, valet staff were very helpful with parking (note that hotel has none on-site). The Peacock Room has incredible bartenders ready to share with you a cocktail history of the city, but coming back later to eat we found it overwhelmed and had to leave after no service. The restaurant on-site is also fantastic. Overall only a few things to improve on, great location in the Warehouse District, easy walk to the French Quarter, SuperDome, etc.

Fabulous time at my bestie’s wedding in NOLA! Sadly ESPN did not come in on my room tv, that’s no bueno. Also, I’m pretty sure that the heat went out the last day, or was that y’all telling me it’s time to go?!?😋 My room was about 66-67 degrees the last day. That’s chilly when taking a shower. Wouldn’t prevent me from staying again. Beautified hotel, great location, and if the price is right; I’ll be there! 💜💛💚
Congrats to the extraordinary couple! This wedding weekend was epic 🥂💖💐 #75DegreeDay
