I purchased 1 room and 2 master suites. I reserved the Suites in July 2009 and the 1 room in September 2009. The room was available but the master suites were not and they did not even tell me. I happen to call to confirm the stay on October 30-November 3 and they only had the 1 room. Said there... more

Definitely not your standard chain hotel. We came in on a whim after a Haunted History tour. We asked the front desk if we could take a look at one of the rooms, she politely obliged. After looking at the room (I absolutely fell in love with it) we decided to stay for the night. There evidently was some rule... more

Never got to stay there because they lost our reservation after making the reservation twice, 3 months in advance. Still don't have my first night deposit back. They offered us nothing but "I am sorry". I knew it had bad reviews and was not expecting much, they had overbooked. I am from the area and know not to ever try... more

Do yourself a huge favor, save your money and stay somewhere else. Bookit.com continues to offer this trashy hotel at a cheap rate. Do not be fooled by the photos you see on the site. This place is run down, dirty, in extreme state of disrepair and the staff we encounterd could care less. I dont think they have replaced... more

We stayed at the Hotel Royal this past weekend. Frankly the reviews I read made me uneasy, so uneasy I brought my own sheets and bed pad. I was very suprised how nice and great balcony. Only thing don't stay in Rm#2 it's above a bar and was very loud. Other than, staff great and def would stay there again. more

I checked in on Saturday, September 5th and out on Tuesday the 8th. My room, #14, was on the second floor. No elevators so I walked up the flight of old wooden stairs. In fact, I had to go down about 3 steps and back up 3 steps again to get to my room.. My room had wooden floors, a... more

This hotel is so disgusting. I've stayed in plenty of hostels and paid a sixth of the price than this hotel. My husband and I arrived at the hotel and immediately noticed how deceiving the hotel's website photos were in reference to the lobby. It was rundown, stains on the 2 lobby chairs, a wobbly decorative table with old food... more

The Room smelled like fried fish coming from the store downstairs the entire time we were there. This place double charged my debit card and it took 2 months to get that sorted out with my Bank. The "Manager" was never there when I called to try and clear up the issue. Do not stay here. more

This small hotel in the French Quarter is a nice kept secret. The rooms are modern and comfortable. The minimalist design felt cozy in this old restored FQ building that has all the charm of New Orleans’ architecture (wrought-iron balconies, gas lamps, high ceilings, hardwood floors, exposed brick and outside courtyard). The hotel is very conveniently located. It is close... more

I have been staying at this hotel for 27 years, ever since it was the Noble Arms Inn. The location is perfect and quiet. You will have to carry your luggage up and down small staircases. And yes, there are always cockroaches in the summer (to be fair almost all MSY hotels have them). My complaint is that the staff... more
