I stayed at the Hotel Royal for 3 nights. My room and bathroom were classy, smaller than a major hotel but quite adequate. Marble floors throughout. Comfortable bed. Full of character, clean, interesting, trendy. I was told there had been a recent $2million remodel. I made a last minute booking and paid $149 a night over the busy Friday and... More

I recently stayed here for 2 nights with my husband, prior to a cruise out of the Port of New Orleans, and I couldn't have been happier with our choice in hotel! From the minute we stepped on the sidewalk in front of the hotel, on the beautiful Royal St, we loved the French Quarter vibe of the hotel. We... More

The Hotel Royal, New Orleans, is the newest gem in the boutique category. This property is located in the 1000 block of Royal in the heart of the French Quarter. Royal is known for its art and antique shops. You're right in the middle of these shops when you stay here. This is a recently opened hotel, one of three... More

I was a bit nervous to book. Considering some of the reviews but I'm happy we did. We stayed this past weekend and the location more than pays for itself. Our room was very nice. Not amazing, but it's a boutique hotel. You pay for the quirky, different atmosphere. Wouldn't reccomend it for families as it is a bit more... More

We just returned from our first visit to New Orleans and We stayed 4 nights at Hotel Royal. Initially I was nervous about the hotel due to some previous reviews I read, as a warning, disregard ALL reviews before September 2011. This hotel has been redone and has simple but modern touches that make each room unique. We did the... More

...at least I think it was 8...or maybe 16? The room is tiny! The roof slopes down in the corners of the room and the bathroom. I hit my head on the roof 7 times while I was there and I'm not a giant. We could barely fit our bags in the room. The location is fantastic and the price... More

booked this hotel because of the price and location, but after my stay I would have been happy at twice the price. I have stayed at many more expensive hotels in the Quarter, but have never found a nicer room than the jr. suite at the Hotel Royal. I have found my "go to" hotel in New Orleans and would... More

Great location; easy to walk to anywhere. Street noise not too bad on second floor room with balcony. GREAT and comfortable Bed. Newly renovated. Outstanding value for the BCS weekend compared to other hotel pricing that we knew several others had to pay. Significant increase in restaurants, bakeries, etc on the end opposite Canal Street.

I booked this hotel one week prior to arrival. The room rate on Friday night was reasonable but very expensive Saturday & Sunday nights. When we found out, after the fact, that it was a huge football weekend, I suppose we were lucky to get a room anywhere in the city. It's a charming hotel with lots of character in... More

I stayed here for the weekend of Dec 10 2011. The hotel is charming old Creole-style, with a nice courtyard. The decor is quaint and elegant. I stayed by myself in a Deluxe Queen room, which while slightly small, was clean and comfortable and had an exposed-brick wall. It is located on Royal St, which is my favorite in New... More
