The Hilton Riverside is a first class hotel in a great location. Lots to do close by including numerous restaurants and a safe and easy walk to the French Quarter. Harrah's Casino is directly next door as well. The rooms are well appointed and very clean. I was attending a week long conference and have never experienced better "banquet food"... More

We stayed here for a conference recently. The location is great as it is a short walk to the convention center (a block or so), is attached to the Riverwalk shops, and a short walk to the French Quarter. We requested a room facing the river, which they were able to do for us. It was fun to watch the... More

This hotel is well located, clean and quiet. Restaurant is very good and serves great nola classics. Close to the river of course and near the dome as well. Only downside is you have to pay for the internet service... All good!! WHO DAT!!!??!! More

I've stayed at this property numerous times over the years. It's a decent, large, faceless convention hotel. I like the location, everything is within walking distance, the river, the casino and the other big tourist things in New Orleans. I have also never had any problems with the Hilton though it has also never stood out as a must stay... More

When we first got to our room, we were very pleased with the layout, amenities and view of the river. We got all unpacked & started settling in when I discovered the carpet in the room was soaking wet. And not just damp... the bottom of my jeans and socks were soaked! The carpet was wet all over the room.... More

I recently stayed for my second time at this property. After the last trip being a complete disaster due to housekeeping not cleaning my room, among many other problems, things were much better this trip. Despite the vast improvement, they still have a bit of work to do if they want to be a prime property. Upon arrival, it is... More

We stayed at the Hilton Riverside while on business during Mardi Gras in 2011. We were both first-timers to New Orleans. The Hilton is in a great location for everything. Our room was very comfortable and right on the river. In fact we could see a Carnival cruise ship dock from our window. We loved the location and the conference... More

New Orleans is chock full of charming historically relevant hotels and inns. However, when a price below $100 came through for this hotel, I couldn't resist the parsimonious temptation. The Riverside Hilton has an excellent location a few blocks from both the quarter and warehouse districts. The St Charles streetcar is also just a few blocks away. However, be prepared... More

The friendly and professional treatment I received from waiters, valets, bellhops, maids, and other staff here was unfortunately tarnished by poor treatment by the front desk and general managers when a package was lost. After a long day of working at a conference, I called the Hilton from the convention center to confirm that a package I needed the following... More

Booked our room on the concierge level, and enjoyed morning breakfast and evening happy hour. Overall a good facility, with decent rooms. The location is perfect, but a good walk to Bourbon Street. Would stay again. Loved having the shops so close. More
