The hotel needs more signs directing you into the hotel and not the restaurant underneath. The young ladies working the desk seemed bored and bothered by guests or questions, if they bothered to acknowledge you at all. Overall the hotel is nice and rooms fully equiped with fridges, microwaves and flat-screen tvs. The carpet in the rooms need to be... More

I love the Garden District and will probably stay there every time I visit the city. The hotel is in a great area and has a St. Charles street car stop right across the street. The rooms are okay, nothing too exciting. Our carpet could have used a cleaning. The bed was okay, wish they had some other pillow choice... More

We visited NOLA to go to the JazzFest; the junior suites accommodated three adults with no problem. Located in the Garden District there is a trolley stop right outdoors. The rooms are OK; have refrigerators and a continental breakfast of juice, coffee, tea, rolls, bagels, waffles (make your own) was included. The staff was very friendly and helpful; down to... More

I was traveling from cross state and arrived very late in the night. Was greeted by an exceptionally curious staff who made sure I had everything I could possibly need. The hotel itself is beautiful, located in a lovely quiet area. The room was spacious and very inviting. I was pleased to learn of their media room with access to... More

I do not understand the high reviews this place gets. It is a good location but housekeeping leaves a lot to be desired. This was our second stay and we spent 3 nights during Jazz Fest. Bed was comfortable. Sink drained poorly. Desk staff ranged from pleasant to indifferent. On first night we got no new towels. Second day saw... More

My wife and I stayed for 4 nights during Navy week. The Hotel was a convenient location to get to the convention center, French Quarter, and also to the good restaurants on South Carrollton. The St. Charles trolley stops right in front of the hotel, but when it is really busy, it may be faster to walk! The room was... More

This was a last minute find, as the hotel I had originally booked in the Quarter jumped up significantly in price due to the New Orleans Marathon running this weekend (but that's another story). While the Clarion probably bumped up their prices as well, it was still cheaper than anything in the Quarter. This was a great location, especially if... More
