Crowne Plaza New Orleans French Qtr - Astor

This stay was a special birthday treat, and it absolutely lived up to expectations. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and featured a huge TV—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. We had both a bathtub and a shower, plus a king-sized bed that made for a very comfortable night's sleep. Being just steps from Bourbon Street meant some evening noise, but the hotel kindly provided earplugs, which worked great. The front desk staff were incredibly helpful—they offered personalized recommendations for local restaurants and even shared info on food delivery options right to our room. While we didn’t get a chance to use the gym or pool, the location more than makes up for it. It’s only a 5-minute walk to the Mississippi River, making it ideal for those who want to enjoy the city’s iconic waterfront views. With its prime spot, excellent service, and welcoming vibe, this is definitely a top pick if you're visiting New Orleans.

Hotel Indigo New Orleans - French Quarter

Staying at Hotel Indigo New Orleans - French Quarter was a delightful experience overall. The location is perfect—right in the heart of the French Quarter, making it super convenient to explore local attractions on foot. The room was just the right size: cozy but not cramped, with a stylish and thoughtful design that reflects the unique character of the neighborhood. The decor is beautiful, blending modern touches with local charm. The staff went above and beyond—friendly, professional, and always ready to help. The only minor downside was that only one elevator was operational during our stay, especially noticeable during a busy convention period, which meant longer wait times. But honestly, this didn’t ruin the experience. With its unbeatable location, excellent service, and authentic vibe, this hotel offers great value and definitely deserves a repeat visit.
