I usually stay at their sister property the International House and always bring my clients with me; since my work is international, I feel great about bringing guests from Europe to this hotel. However, it was completely booked, so they suggested the modern sister hotel around the corner Loft 523. First of all, the decor is fantastic and the special... More

The location is good. The hotel itself is nice, has a cool vibe. The staff is a bit snooty and awkward. They're not very good at making you feel welcome here, or at the International House. But my BIGGEST complaint is the $60.00 hidden charges, that you are NOT made aware of until after you check in and they swipe... More

I've had some real disappointments in NOLA hotels -- but was very happy with Loft 523. It's a small little modern boutique hotel. They do have room service and a bar one block over at a sister property, so it's almost like you're staying in a little apartment building. Front desk staff were all very friendly and provided concierge type... More

If you're looking for a quiet, yet close to the French Quarter, hotel this is the place for you! The rooms are very clean and modern and the staff is friendly and helpful. This hotel doesn't have any fancy amenities, no pool, no downstairs bar, but no fuss! Room Service is available from the neighboring International House. The French Quarter/Bourbon... More

We stayed at Loft 523 for 5 nights during the Final Four. Overall, we had a great experience with the staff- most were very attentive and went out of the way to help us during our time there. The rooms were very sleek, modern, and sexy. We'll definitely be back.

My partner and I stayed at Loft 523 two weeks ago. We loved it. Not only is it cool but it is in a great location. Just a block from Canal and the French Quarter but QUIET so you can get some rest after all the fun. The hotel is really a loft space. I've lived in lofts before and... More

We really enjoyed the hotel. It is a very quiet and quaint hotel with easy access to all the hot areas in New Orleans and the river. It is also really close to the trolley.

If you're looking for a low key, modern, boutique hotel in a great location, this is the spot. Just read the other reviews. The good ones are true.

I have been going to New Orleans for many years being a graduate from Tulane University. Through Tablet I got a great rate and with the pictures I decided it would be fun to try when bringing down my girlfriend. All I can say is that I thought this hotel was amazing. It has truly unique decor with terrific contemporary... More

After many trips to NOLA, I finally found this gem of a hotel. Not sure how many rooms but guessing 16-24, location is perfect, quiet neighborhood with walking access to the best of the city. Decor is modern, infrastructure is new, service is discreet, beds are comfortable. Will be back in a few weeks.
