W New Orleans - French Quarter

This hotel should not have the 'W' name on it. It doesn't even feel like a hotel. The tiny, non-existent lobby sets the mood. It's more like a motel. There's no where to sit in relax on the property unless you are in the restaurant. You'll notice a rundown tiny motel looking pool in the middle of the hotel. The rooms are extremely small...and I mean small, with very low ceilings and no drawers whatsoever to put your clothes in. Other than a tiny closet with no shelves, there is no place to unpack your clothes. Also, when the A/C ran it smelled like mildew and mold in the room. It was not air that you wanted to breathe in. We called the front desk to complain, but they offered no solutions other than letting us leave early, which we did! We actually checked out of the hotel and went to another one that was actually half the price and much, much newer, cleaner, roomier and what you would have expected from the W, which they were charging over $600/night. Do yourself a favor and don't stay here!

The room was bigger than expected and the location is a fantastic with it being in the French quarter. Staff are fantastic and all so welcoming. The restaurant staff in particular were amazing when we had easily some of the best breakfast ever. If you want somewhere special in NOLA then I'd recommend here

Great hotel. The beds were great. The bar was wonderful! Paul made everyday for us amazing. Can’t wait for him to move to Kansas. 😉 Give that man a raise and a paid vacation. Can’t wait to come back for a new adventure! Thanks for all of the accommodations!

Great experience at the W New Orleans. The hotel is located at a great place on Chartres st in the heart of the French Quarter but a couple blocks from the noisy Bourbon St. Beautifully decorated, the hotel has a great bar and nice resting the street for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The manager and the staff are very friendly and helpful. One of my best ever stay in a city hotel. Thanks

The location of this fabulous hotel is one of its best assets. We stayed there for a weekend and were able to enjoy all that the lovely city of New Orleans and its French Quarter have to offer. While not on busy Bourbon Street, it’s on Chartres Street only two blocks from the Bourbon Street commotion, which means you can escape to tranquility for a good night rest. The staff were super friendly and the bartender pours a solid cocktail. The pool, though on the small side, was extremely refreshing. The interior décor was spot on for a W Hotel. We felt it was exceptionally high end. Most importantly the bedding was superb and we slept at ease. We have no negatives on this property. Price is higher than what you can find on Canal Street, but again the location can’t be beat. Valet Parking is NYC price, but the attendants were very prompt. I definitely recommend. Marriott Bonvoy Titanium here who stays 100+ nights a year. I know Marriott quality when I see it, and it’s here.
