Fairmont New Orleans

Beautiful hotel in a great location - easy walk to Bourbon street and about 10 to 15 minute walk to the riverside, cruise terminal, French quarter. Superb room - good size with a lovely bathroom - multi head shower was excellent. Excellent quality bed linen and a very comfortable bed. We did a 4 night stay, flew to Nashville and then came back for a final night (paying with points). On our final night we get a comp’ room upgrade, this room was outstanding and huge! The pool area good - pool heated & jacuzzi really warm so worth a visit. Particularly nice if you are up early. Choice of restaurants / cafes for breakfast - as Hilton Gold members we had a $50 per day credit to use in some restaurants. A decent breakfast for 2 cost around $60 so we used the credit for this. Can highly recommend room service breakfast. Cabs to and from airport seem to be a fixed price of $36 (as at Nov24). Uber and Lyft very easy to use as well.

This is a classic, beautiful landmark hotel with all the amenities of a modern one. We opted for a 1 bedroom suite which had 2 baths, a truly separate and comfortable living area. Cushy bathrobes, nice bath products and great housekeeping added to our positive experience. Only downsides were pretty banged up furniture and extraordinarily loud HVAC system below our room. And backside of hotel had a terrible industrial view. Didn’t eat here but sanzerac bar was beautiful. Also all staff were great without exception. This place is not cheap but a lovely old dame in a great location in a great city!

This was my first time staying in The Roosevelt hotel. A very clean, comfortable hotel. The staff were extremely helpful and the concierge made great dinner recommendations as well. We loved voting for the staff's pumpkin decorating contest in the lobby. Only concern was that the floor ice maker was off all week. Anytime we needed ice we had to call down to the front desk and have some brought up. Would have been nice to have the fridge empty vs stocked with pricey items so I could use the fridge for drinks and leftovers. Was told there is a restocking fee if you remove things from the fridge.

Always a pleasure to return to the Roosevelt. It is our favorite Hotel in New Orleans. Stayed at many upscale properties in New Orleans over the years, this is our preference. Close, historic, romantic, great bedding and staff. It has great atmosphere especially at Christmas when we return annually as our Christmas tradition. A long date night or weekend is always a pleasure there.

Despite the classic charm of the hotel, my stay here was anything but pleasant. Leaking toilet, plugged sink, iron didn’t work, and the cherry-on-top was the construction crew directly outside my window cutting concrete from 4am-5:30am. Needless to say I will not be returning to the Roosevelt anytime soon, nor would I recommend staying here.
